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).

I currently have a friend creating some video tutorials, and other users have made some in the past. I will create a page with tutorials when they are done and I'm planning a new FAQ Page.

No sorry, there isn't a way to mark your area with fences, just a single block in the center of the area to protect.

Yes the current versions of PS place the block and LogBlock doesn't see the block being placed, PS 2.0 will change some of the event information and I will test it against LogBlock to see if LogBlock sees the placement of ProtectionStones.
What do you mean by "or protect them with worldguard"?

Appears to be a corrupted plugin.yml file in the ProtectionStones.jar file.
Did you make changes to that file?
If you did, yml files are easily corrupted due to their formatting, download another copy of the jar file and try editing it again.

The only way to limit the number of a certain type of PS is to place a player in a group that only has the type of block, and that limit you are looking for, there is no way to limit each type separately. The count is a count of all the player's WorldGuard Regions, PS and regular regions.
Please read the Configuration Page about setting up group limits.

Posted Oct 10, 2013I am currently unable to answer questions while my current job is shutdown, my employer has been forced to stop work due to the U.S. Gov. being shutdown.
For now my only chance to get online involves a smart phone.
I will once again respond promptly to questions as soon as this mess is over.

Posted Oct 5, 2013Do you have a region deletion timer? It would be nice if a player's area became unclaimed after x amount of hours/days/weeks without having logged on.

The PS is the center for the region, so other than using the sky to bedrock setting, the regions are always odd numbers.
You could have a 9x9 or 11x11, but not a 10x10.
If the default coal size is used, like it shows above in the documentation then you would have 11x11x11, so 10 blocks on each side of the PS (in the middle).

Depends how the plugin has been setup. You will have to ask the admin.
