LineXChat

LineXChat

Features

  • Chat formatting including permission-based color codes
  • Easy to use private message system
  • Playerlist formatting including /list and tab
  • Join-, leave- and kick-message formatting
  • Broadcast formatting including /say
  • Fakequit and namechanging
  • Autocomplete of players and groups
  • Highly configurable

Those are all basic features - what makes this plugin special is the pm-system that allows for multiple targets with additional arguments. It was made because normal users almost never use channels so they are quite pointless. However, a big server should have the possibility for private messaging with more than one other user, so why not let the user create his own channels with a very simple command?
