I do this in my free time, so if you like my work, I'd be completely grateful for any donation you can send me. With this I pay the server where store my files and project. These donations motivate me to continue adding features and keep it free for all.

I don't get what you have to type for 30 seconds because I type /announcer interval 30 and it sets to 30 mins but what if i want it to be 30 seconds. Could you display examples because /announcer interval 30 seconds doesn't work and /announcer interval 30 just sets minutes.
@navbarry
Indeed it does, i run it across all 4 of my servers running the latest builds of Spigot, (Basically the performance savy Craftbukkit), if you didn't know what it is. =]
Does this still work well and use little resources?
@Lorindellia
Great idea, I totally support it.
I totally agree with the person who said that they would like to know if there is a way to remove the autoannouncer from being logged on the server.log.
I love this plugin, but I have noticed that if you play for some lenght of time, you mind seems to filter the announcements out. I wonder if there is a way to randomly insert jokes or interesting factioids that never get repeated every now and then to make people pay attention to server announcements more? I mean if you are always wondering what it will blurt out next, then I think a person would pay closer attention.; do you agree? Lorin
hey i was wondering if this logs the posts/announcements to the server log? im using one currently and its loggin to the server log file making it huge and uneasy to decode errors.
Thanks for your info
Been using this for a very long time now and it's been working perfectly well. Came across this error in our logs, seems to have caused a Read Timed Out crash though.

Any ideas?
Even though many people say this does not need updated, I think it might. As of now it is not working for me. It isn't posting any messages.
Guy it you now java code here the github of https://github.com/sharkiller/AutoAnnouncer
You can test it work on 1.4.7 : P
@lzongolo
You are one whiny person. Plugins are made by people in the free time, for free, so others can use it. By making a plugin, you are not obliged to constantly take care of it if you do not have the time or simply lose interest in it. Why not take a look at the author's last login time, which was August 1st, 2012. This plugin is most likely abandoned because of that, but, quite honestly, it still works just fine. If you have an issue, either ask the mod/admins of the website to take it over and update it yourself or just find another one.
Also, there are still plugins from 2011 that are on the website, but simply marked as inactive. I highly doubt this will be removed anytime soon. Again, it still works fine and has proven to be a lasting plugin; it should still work just fine unless bukkit drastically changes their native API and breaks hundreds of other plugins at the same time. If you feel uncomfortable about using a plugin that is still on 1.2.5, then find another announcer plugin that is more updated (there are at least 3-4 that are more updated than this, most likely).
lol this plugin does not need an update i run a minecraft server and tekkit server that is up to date and i have no problems with this plugin, i see no errors in the console for this plugin either so what is your problem with this plugin that has no errors for me???
Some peoples are goin' crazy... IF YOU MAKE A PLUGIN YOU NEED TO UPDATE IT !
1.2.5 IS A VERY OLD VERSION ! 1.4.6 IS THE LATEST CRAFTBUKKIT BUILD. UPDATE NOW ! OR, YOUR PLUGIN WILL BE REMOVED.
please update this to 1.4.7 i know it works on 1.4.7 but i love this plugins keep up and update please
If this ever gets updated, could this be able to use tags such as {TIME} that comes with essentials?
Works fine for me
@TomScheeper
It still works just fine for me o.o...
@Luiz2e
The plugin is outdated... You need another announcer plugin like: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/deckerz-announcer/ to let it work on your 1.4.6 server
Why don't the commands work for me?
@Speedrookie
I think you need to calm down there buddy.
