ProtectionStones
Anti-Griefing at it's Easiest!
Griefing Protection
ProtectionStones allows a player to place a special block, and this protects their area from griefing.
This small plugin was inspired by PreciousStones but only has the property protection blocks. This allows players to place one of three types of ore blocks to protect their property.
The player doesn't require any special permissions, they just need to get one of the three following ore blocks which you can give or sell in game using other plugins:
Coal Ore gives 11x11x11 protection area.
Lapis Ore gives 21x21x21 protection area.
Diamond Ore gives 41x41x41 protection area.
See the Configuration Page if you would like to change the block types, the dimensions or even set the Y-Axis to be from sky to bedrock, set group limiting, etc.
When the player places the block it creates a WorldGuard Region that gives the player ownership of that area and in turn grief protection. If the player breaks the ProtectionStone then they get the stone back and the region is removed from WorldGuard's Region List.
To install simply copy the ProtectionStones.jar file to your plugins folder, no configuration necessary. The following Ore Blocks are supported as the defaults: Coal Ore, Lapis Ore, Diamond Ore.
ProtectionStones Regions
ProtectionStones Creates WorldGuard Regions with the following naming convention:
ps{x-coordinate}x{y-coordinate}y{z-coordinate}z
i.e.
ps279x67y40z
The x, y, and z coordinates are the location of the placed ProtectionStone which is in the center of the WorldGuard Region it creates. If the Region.SKYBEDROCK Setting is set to "true" (see the Configuration Page) then Y-Axis of the ProtectionStone isn't necessarily the vertical center of the region.
Incompatible with PreciousStones
Both plugins act on the same kind of ore blocks and have the same command name of "/ps".
Requires WorldGuard
WorldGuard is used to create and remove regions when the blocks are placed, otherwise ProtectionStones won't do anything (set not to load if WorldGuard isn't found).

The problem with lag is communications aren't working, so the client side is placing the block, then the server side gets the communication saying the block was placed, see's it in a illegal spot and removes it.
And controlling the client side's mouse click is impossible unless you write a client side mod for the client software that communicates with the server (which lag would still cause a problem) and then blocks or unblocks the mouse click being sent.
Mojang has been working on speeding up the servers in many ways including the way chunks are handled, but just like computers, as you make them faster people just find more things for them to do at the same time and more difficult things.
Hence many Bukkit Servers run lots of plugins all trying to do their own thing, causing more lag.

Its lag...you cant make a plugin to avoid it or compensate for it. You design your builds so the lag cant be used as advantage for when they climb on blocks.

Well with that being the case, every server has its share of lag. Even a tiny bit. What i was able to do, was kind of hard to do cuz it didn't happen often. Usually I was only able to hop off at least one block before it was removed. So, I'm still wondering if world guard or protection stone producers could still implement a way to help keep this from happening? Just because its a lag issue don't mean it can't be solved. They do produce these plugins to prevent griefing after all. And this is still a trick griefers can use to, well... you know.. grief :) Should we let them take advantage of this? No. I'm sure someone can find a way to fix this some how what ever it takes...
The suggestion I provided might be a good solution. Just prevent the block from being solid for like a second or two. There. Problem solved. I think :\
Or even better, just disable the left and mouse button when ever they enter someone's area. Unless they face a button, lever, chest, or door, they have no reason to use the left or right mouse button, do they? No. I know there are people who like others to use some of the things in their region. My friend has a dungeon course he likes his visitors to check out and they have to flip levers and stuff to open doors. If they face a lever, button, or whatever, then the right mouse button is allowed...
I don't know. Just be creative ;)

markdf is correct, that is a lag issue that allows you to get around most of the known protection plugins, like WorldGuard, and WorldGuard is what ProtectionStones uses.

ProtectionStones uses WorldGuard for the protection, So it won't allow a quarry to work unless WorldGuard creates and option to allow them to work in your region.
