Bukkit

ReferredByMe is a plugin that allows users to refer other users to the server, letting them get rewards in return, and you to get more players to join your server. This plugin is still early in development, and so if you find any bugs, please let me know so I can fix them as soon as possible. Feel free to make suggestions too.

Commands and Permissions;

Usage - description - permission

• /refer <player> - Says who referred them to the server - ReferredByMe.refer
• /referinfo [player] - Gets information on the player. Who referred them, and how many people they have referred. - ReferredByMe.info

ReferRank LeaderBoard Signs

You can now create leaderboards from signs. Just type;

1. [referrank]
2. <which rank>

• This will produce a sign that says

1. [referrank]
2. <rank>
3. <player>
4. <Referrals>

• Signs update whenever you right-click them.

Features

1. Stops players from referring themselves
2. Doesn't allow players to use the /refer command, if someone else has claimed they were referred by this user. This is to prevent people from doing a "I refer you and you refer me" sort of thing.
3. Doesn't allow users to say they have been referred by someone, if they claimed they have already been referred by another user.
4. Customizable messages
5. Customizable Rewards. After a certain amount of referrals, or every time a user refers a certain number of players. You may use as many tiers as you wish.
6. Stops players from referring users that have the same IP. This is to prevent users from referring themselves with alternate accounts.

Config

Users who are updating from V0.5.1 or earlier, must change the config to follow the style shown here, otherwise, there will be a lot of bugs. http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/referredbyme/pages/example-config/

The config allows you to change the messages that appear on the screen, and edit the rewards. When a player gets a certain amount of rewards, then a command will be executed from the console. If you want the player to get a reward every time they referred someone, set "Recurring" to '1'. Variables: {player} - Replaced by the player who joined/executed the command {target} - The player a command is targeted to.

To disable Welcome messages, set WelcomeMessage, ReferElse and/or ReferredBy to ''. (double apostrophe)

Planned Future Features

• MySQL support.
