Not Dead - There are just no new features to add
Please suggest?
Takes effect when version 4.0.0 is released
All configs must be deleted and recreated
Note:
For multiline MOTD's you must add spaces imbetween lines in the config.
Theres 26 characters in a line, if your MOTD is "Hi! Im Bob!" that would make 11 characters so youd need to add 15 spaces after the last "!".

SetImage
When setting a Server Image you can take any image you want off the internet and put it in, the plugin will resize it automatically to fit the required 64x64 pixel size.
Faces
The faces option in the config makes it so when a player clicks Multiplayer, or clicks refresh in the server list, their face will appear as the Server image, with a mask * Version 4.0.0 Now requires mask to be on.
Example
Config
MOTD: '&4&lWelcome to Google, &b&l%player% ' NewPlayerMOTD: '&b&lYou havent joined! Join us!' MaxPlayers: 1 Faces: false AutoUpdate: true ServerImage: http://images.forbes.com/media/lists/companies/google_200x200.jpg 127,0,0,1: Andrewcpu
MOTD : The MOTD for returning players
NewPlayerMOTD : MOTD for new players
MaxPlayers : sets the displayed amount of players to be allowed on
AutoUpdate : Automatically download updates when available Note Defaulted to true
Faces : If set to true, a server image will be neglected and the players face will appear there
Note Player information is also stored in the config such as which IP matches which player.
Permissions

Posted Dec 23, 2016You should be able to access it using the \n newline escape. Please tell me if this works.

Posted May 22, 2016You should add a command for /motd reload that reloads the config so you don't have to restart or reload your server every time you want to see your new MOTD, some people can't fit their MOTD into the chat. Also UPDATE TO 1.8. There are new features to add, so don't say that there isn't.

You've probably configured it incorrectly.
If you post a pastebin of your config WITH PLAYER IPs REMOVED (for privacy reasons) then I'll help you. If you don't know what I'm talking about, then PM me, I'll fix it, then comment here on what I did for everyone else to know.

Posted Oct 30, 2015Once I modify my config to my liking, I stop and start my server, then the config gets completely removed and everything reverts back to it's original state. I'm getting sick of seeing 'Welcome back m8, CrazemeisterYT' whenever I login :/

Alright thanks! I honestly need a pure system motd plugin, no faces, no first join motd, no in-game motd, just one motd the server will have in the server list. Hope it's added soon :3

Posted Aug 4, 2014Is it possible to remove all the other motd types and just have one simple system motd everyone sees if they have joined or not? Like no welcome back message or you haven't joined and no message when they log on? Thanks

Out of curiosity how did you do LineTwo, I had some thoughts but it would require cutting off the first lines ending from the second line if it went over, I was wondering if you did the same
