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.

The links i just gave you lead to CB & Spigot 1.8.3. The actual plugin is downloaded here. 2.1.2a requires 1.8.3. BukkitDev only has an option for 1.8 & 1.8.1. And i noticed the no-ip link isn't working. I don't know why. Try checking the ngrok.com link at roughly 7PM GMT

Wait are those links for Spigot 1.8.3 & CraftBukkit 1.8.3 or the actual plugin? If it's Spigot 1.8.3 I already have that. If so, is the v2.1.2a the version for 1.8.3, on the recent files on the side of page it says for 1.8

Ngrok.com is going down for 2-3 hours. Instead use http://dmp9software.no-ip.org/MC-SRV-API/CraftBukkit/craftbukkit-1.8.jar or http://dmp9software.no-ip.org/MC-SRV-API/Spigot/spigot-1.8.jar

EDIT: The developer of ScoreboardStats has agreed to have functions to display info from this plugin.

I recommend getting InfoBoard and setting it up so it will display what rank you are on. I don't see scoreboard coming in the near future, but one day we might add it. Hope i helped :)

Hey man. I REALLY REALLY REALLY need a scoreboard function to work with this. I love this plugin, ive been using it for months now but as you can see, prison servers are getting more and more sophisticated and as of now, a prison server calls for a scoreboard. It doesnt have to be complicated. I'd just like it to have: balance, current rank, next rank & price, and if you can add a bar that indicates how close to ranking up you are, that would be great!
If anybody wants to join a cool new server that just started but is already looking great, join mine! IP: arcticnetwork.mcph.co

Today, 2 new people will be joining the Prison Project.
BethBooBonkers & TotallyALF5
Those two people manage Bukkit & Spigot (all the BuildTools stuff) so we can keep Prison up to date!
Also, the next version of Prison will be in 1.8.3

Posted Mar 6, 2015I hope this is the right place to submit requests/problems.
I currently have prison 2.1.1 installed on my Spigot 1.8 server and am having issues with permissions. In a nutshell, I am fairly well versed in coding GroupManager however the permissions for Prison 2 don't seem to actually grant any in game abilities. I am able to /block and /autosmelt so I know prison itself is functioning, however the mines/ranks commands don't seem to be working. I have the permissions currently coded as: - prisons.ranks.manage - prisons.mines.manage
Currently running GroupMan, Vault, WordEdit - all up-to-date, among others.
Thanks!

At the moment, you will have to create a way yourself. However in the version im working on, Prison has its own warping system. You can either wait or make your own. Hope i helped! :)
