Title: Guard plugin ?
Post by: ivy2112 on October 14, 2012, 07:35:04 pm
As the title as says
Why does the guard plugin not help the server to explain new people about using the channels and how too make money
This will probably help the new persons that are somtimes stuck in local or trade and dont know how to use it
i saw this on many servers and thsi helped me a lot there

It can send messages like  Type  "/ch t " to sell stuff to other people !! or  , Type "/ch g" to chat with all people !! or type "/ch l" to talk to people within the 250 blocks !

I think guests will think about it more then reading , like me :P

I don't think guests want random people sending messages to them when they pass by them.

Some people here sometimes go to the guest spawn, and they can always help them out when needed.

I don't see why this would be needed, like Mr said:

you are on about the citizens plugin:
http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/citizens/

even though you'd think this can be a better way to provide a better guide to incoming players, the signs at spawn are well enough to inform guests about our server rules/guidelines/information/etc.

given than that, all this plugin does is just create bot like players that don't really help guide our players as well as having the possibility of lagging our server as these are counted as entities. they are just essentially something fun/bonus to have, nothing useful to us.

all in all, we've got several plugins on the server and it's attributes won't be necessarily needed for the server since we've got scheduled announcements, signs and the website to help them.
