That's certainly not a fresh config like you said it was; there is an extra "%s" at the end of your "chatTagFormat" which has been added to it. I'd venture a guess that's your problem.
I really do have better things to do than provide support for problems caused by user misconfiguration.
By the way, I'm noticing several reports which appear to be caused by people upgrading to 1.7.6 beta and then later downgrading to 1.6.9 stable. As it says in big bold letters on the file download page for 1.7.6, downgrading from 1.7.x to 1.6.x will not work correctly and will leave your player data messed up so that Factions will end up throwing various errors. If you just want to test out 1.7.6, be sure to back up your plugin data from 1.6.x first so it can be restored if you later decide you need to downgrade.
Downgrading from 1.7.x to 1.6.x will mess up your data. Don't do it unless you're fine with deleting your data.
If you have downgraded without deleting your data files, that's the reason you are encountering errors.

check the config page. There are configurations for disabling landclaim and powerloss, thereby effectively disabling factions, in certain worlds. It should be something like /f config worldspowerlossdisabledin <worldname> or something. Again, check the wiki's config page.

Posted Aug 13, 2012Hello
I Host a Hunger Games Server, it is divided in 3 parts the creative world, the hg world and a survival world (the one with factions). I was wondering if there was a wat to disable factions in a world for example when 2 people from a faction go inside a game they are able to hurt each other as normal player. What I want is to find a way to have factions in only 1 world and when players leave that world is like normal players. If there is a way to do it Please tell me It will help me alot. Thanks

Posted Aug 13, 2012Is there any way I can hide the faction names when not in the faction world. As I have a server with multiverse that has a faction and a survival world and it is annoying to see the faction tags when you are playing survival!

Posted Aug 12, 2012Sadly this plugin completely overwrites mChatSuite. All of my members want factions, it would be appreciated if you could patch this, it worked fine back in 1.2.5.Edit: With the newest dev build of mChat which updates to AsyncChatEvent, chat now works but the faction prefix causes an error. not sure if this is a bug with factions or mChat, here is the pasebin output of server log: link. The chat shows up correctly but the faction prefix is omitted and errors are thrown.

Posted Aug 12, 2012It appears that Chatmanager with PermissionsEX breaks when used alongside Factions 1.6.9 All prefix/suffix features as well as colors break.
Any fix planned in the near future? My server relies heavily on Factions for its gameplay so having it fixed would be nice.
