What is Prison?
Prison is a Minecraft plugin that adds all the features necessary for prison servers. Plugins for prison servers exist already, but many of them are poorly maintained, and the solid ones are paid resources. Prison eliminates the paywall and the updating hassle, and puts a one-stop solution in their place.
What can it do?
Prison has two main components - called modules - that are built-in: mines and ranks.
Mines
- Create mines for players to collect materials.
- Have mines automatically reset after a certain amount of time.
- Interactively edit the composition of your mines.
- Teleport your players to safety during a mine reset, so they don't suffocate.
Ranks
- Create ranks for users to buy.
- Use multiple rank ladders. For example, you could have a prestige ladder, or a donor ladder, etc.
- Run commands when users rank up, to give them access to new permissions or set off fireworks in their place.
- Show rank tags in chat with the help of a chat formatting plugin, such as EssentialsX-Chat.
If you have suggestions for features that you'd like to see, you should create a feature request at our issue tracker and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
Why should I switch to Prison?
If hassle-free updates and zero payments is not enough for you to consider switching to Prison, it doesn't stop there.
- Prison is modular. If you don't want to use a certain feature on your server, you can disable it in just a few keystrokes.
- Prison is completely, 100% open source. This means that your developers can make changes to the plugin to customize your server's experience, if you so desire.
- Prison is and always will be free. While we do ask for donations, all of our code, resources, and binaries are provided free of charge to the Minecraft community.
- New releases are heavily bug-tested. We test every single aspect of every new release of Prison before releasing it to the community. If a release doesn't pass our rigorous update checklist, it is iterated upon until it does. What does this mean for you? Solid updates with minimal bugs for your server.
- Prison is always expanding. We are always looking for ways to expand Prison with features that make your server run more smoothly. Additionally, we are always looking for contributions from the community, be it code contributions, feature requests, bug reports, translations, or documentation.

Why do I not have this problem if it is a problem? Are you using the latest build?.....Oh wait, I use Pex to append the prefix, nevermind...

Posted Oct 9, 2014How come the prefix of Prison is &6Prison &7> and it doesn't actually show the color? It literally says &6 in the chat. Please fix this

Posted Oct 7, 2014Is there a way to set a spawn for the mines? ATM my mine is accessed from the side, not the top. So when the mine reset people are teleported to the surface and pinned inside dirt blocks instead of to where the mine is accessed.

I know you're no longer maintaining the plugin, I guess... but could you update it so that color codes in "Prison >", etc work correctly? For some reason the color codes don't work in the latest version of this plugin. Thanks :)

Sorry, but I don't offer support for versions below 2.0 anymore. Is there a way you can update your Bukkit version to the latest one?

Good point! It's already on GitHub and it uses Maven, I don't see why I didn't start accepting pull requests sooner! I'll have to add this information to the description later. Thanks!

Why not throw the source up on github and accept pull requests?

Posted Sep 30, 2014I'm looking for a maintainer for my plugin... sadly I won't be able to give it as much attention as I used to be able to. Maintainer in my definition is someone who updates it when Bukkit updates, and fixes issues (if they can).

Im having the same problem I noticed that in the latest version the server-prefix " " in config has gone away that may have something to do with it.
@AbareKiller1 Im not sure whether you have essentials economy or not but what ever economy plugin you are using make sure the players don't have .loan perm, for essentials it would be essentials.eco.loan this lets them have negative money

Posted Sep 28, 2014Heyo, my users can rank up infinetly. What I mean by this is that they can rank up over and over again, even when they've reached the highest rank. It also still takes their money.
How do I fix this?

Did you guys check the console? Look in the console either A) after you run the /mines command or B) while the server is starting up. Report any error messages to me!
