Greeter
This project has been abandoned due to Bukkit shutting down. I hope to remake this plugin when the API comes out!

Description
Description
Need a plugin that makes players feel good when they join? Well this plugin is your solution! When a player joins the game, this plugin will greet them with a public message. This is my first plugin, and I didn't want to start with something advanced, so I came up with this simple plugin which is also quite useful.
Features
Features
When a player joins, this plugin would say "Welcome back, user!". An image of how it looks like in-game is shown below:
To Do List

[ Coming in 0.3 ] - Variables

Planned updates:

Not sure what will be in this version yet!
0.2 Alpha
- A permission node (greeter.welcomeback) for the plugin to welcome back the player
- A permission node (greeter.welcome) for the plugin to welcome the player on first join
- A configuration file with the ability to change the welcome message
- A first join message
0.3 Beta

I don't know what else to add, so I need suggestions. Feel free to post a comment on any suggestion for this plugin.

Thanks. Well I know the player wouldn't be able to see it, however everyone else would. I'll think about it.
@Lionhard98
I'll see what I can do, but it'll probably come in version 0.3 beta. I can't guarantee anything though, since I recently started developing Bukkit plugins. I'll consider it though.
Again, as I said, I recently started so there may be a delay between big updates. I have added first join messages to the to do list. Also, if you have Essentials I am pretty sure you can disable some commands. Alternatively, you could remove the welcome message from the MOTD, and it would still say the rest of whats in the MOTD.
I have also added your variable idea. I was thinking it should be formatted like this: {PLAYER} {TIME}, etc. I have also thought of an idea of MySQL support. By that I mean it would insert the welcome messages to a MySQL database, so you could have a list of joins in your server website.
Expect a 0.2 update some time next week, currently the feature is unknown. Please suggest, and your feature may be in 0.2. Thank you! :)

Posted Oct 20, 2013Hey! good plugin, simple, useful. Just one thing: Do you really think a goodbye message would be useful? Because if the player quits, he/she won't be able to see it, so...
