Already done my friend: https://github.com/skyrimfan1/Overscroll But do feel free to contribute! I can't work alone on all my projects! D:
@Hoolean
Asp-era your suggestion, I initially made a version using the scoreboard under player names. However, it does not work because of the way Bukkit handles scoreboard below player names (every person's scoreboard only uses your chat). So, I've decided to instead make it above the player's head using holograms with hooks from HoloAPI.

Mind sharing the source code? If this project is abandoned, I would be willing to take it on!

There is a 16 letter limit for the messages above players' heads.

Posted Sep 14, 2013I have been using chatbubble for a while which shows the tekst but it is a mod. Having a server side plugin like this is pretty cool.
I was wondering if you could change or add the option to leave the tekst above the head for a couple of seconds instead of having it scroll over the head. And maybe add a : before the tekst. Even though the plugin name is scroll i find it better to read if the tekst stands still for a while.
@samthelord1
Yes this works for me on the new RB 1.6.2-R1.0

Little bug, on death (or messages using playername) player name includes spaces afterwards, any fix?
Also, (For the nametags plugins) please make nametag color assignment into commands (Color names with commands, remove specific player, remove all). Still willing to pay $25 for this! -Zeraceee.
