Is there a way to speed up a "Mob Spawner's" spawn rate?

What's the easiest way to get Giants to spawn with this plugin? I've messed around with naturalistic and bonus spawns but I can't seem to get it to work right. I'm going to put Giant as a replacement for spiders in the natural spawn options, maybe this will work?

Edit: Holy shiz it worked! lol now to edit the spawn chances haha

Edit #2: Hmm I guess this only worked for me that one time, really odd I can't figure out why though... Now, spiders are still spawning all over and not being replaced by Giants when they do. I swear this was just working, I went to change spawncount under spiders (which are currently being replaced by Giants, thinking this would slow them down) no spiders or giants spawned at all after this, I changed it back to spawncount of 1, now I just see spiders. I could have been seeing left over Giants from a Giant plugin I was testing, however I'm almost 100% positive I cleared them all before messing around with replacements in MA's natural spawn options. Once I restarted server the first time after messing with replacements, it looked to me as if all the spiders spawns were turning into Giants.. Now I can't get it to work anymore.

Seems as if none of the replacements are working properly since 1.3.2, I know everything in the config is correct..

I have PigZombies set to true in the natural spawns, which I know used to work because I would seem them all over the world that MA is selected for. I have yet to see a PigZombie since 1.3.2 .... I have a feeling a lot of the natural spawn options in config no longer work as they should.

Does anyone know, will this work with Monsterbox? I'd like to use them both!

I did not get any errors with this plugin when testing 1.3.2 but I did not really dive into it to hard but before to long I would like to see this spout loot compatible seems mobs will not drop spout items I figure you probably have to wait for the new spoutcraft to be out before then but would like to see it.

Um why would I do that being I don't want the mobs to run around during the day also the mobs are working fine now the issue was Skeletons were turned off on Essentials your comment would not have done anything but make mobs run a muck on my server during the day the day time is the only time my players have to rebuild their bases I would hate to try and build on a server which turned off those two options you couldn't do anything but die.

how can i make zombies not spawn trap new players without factions

Zombies still can destroy blocks in my region someone fix this

Will this work with RB2? Or should I wait? Thanks! As for the question about no skeletons, I did something that got rid of all the creepers, with only this plugin, not intended. I pulled the plugin out, restarted, then put it back in and restarted and it went back, sometimes I think its just a qwirk? I always raise the light level a little as well, usually to 10 or so, if you want more baddies, especially, it makes it tougher when its raining, etc.

I have been able to get this going with hardly any lag using your config and a lil editing for my tastes but I can not get the skeletons to spawn not sure why I have no other plugins that deal with skeletons or any mob for that matter please help.My config

Always night: true this should only be true if you want mobs to spawn constantly

Mega-aggro range: 1874919424 Mega-aggro range Y: 1874919424 this is making mobs come from that many blocks awa to you and can see you from that far

Bonus spawn period: 60000 Naturalistic bonus spawn mob attempts per tick: 1000 Number of mobs to spawn in a spot if found: 15

this means you are trying to spawn 15 mobs 1000 times in 60 seconds thats why your getting mobbed so bad

My server is absolutely flooding with every mob. Could someone make a suggestion on how to even things out more? I want a challenge with hordes of mobs, but to the point where they're everywhere and I die every 3 seconds.
