What is Votifier?
Votifier is a Bukkit plugin whose purpose is to get notified (aka votified) when a vote is made on a Minecraft server list for the server. Votifier creates a lightweight server that waits for connections by a Minecraft server list and uses a simple protocol to get information about that vote. Votifier is and always will be open-source.

Is it secure?
Votifier employs 2048-bit RSA encryption to ensure that nobody can spoof a vote packet. When Votifier is run for the first time, it generates a unique key pair only for your server to use. When you register Votifier with a supporting server list, that server list will ask for your public RSA key so it can encrypt vote packets before sending them to you. Votifier is so secure, not even its own developers can hack it.

What does Votifier do when it receives a vote notification?
Votifier has a vote listener system where listeners are notified when Votifier receives a vote notification. Sort of like the Bukkit plugin system itself. Each of these listeners can carry out their own task (i.e. rewarding the player via iConomy, etc.) in response to the vote. Vote listeners can be found on the Github download page.

To install a vote listener, simply put it in Votifiers "listeners" folder.
Note that you must run Votifier first before this folder is made.

Vote listeners:

More vote listeners can be found at the vote listeners forum.

Due to widespread adoption of Votifier, we no longer have a list of server list websites that support it.
Thanks for your support!

How can my server list support Votifier?
On its Github page, Votifier has detailed protocol information about how to support it.

    Oh okay well i will go post the error at PermissionsEx then, thanks. But with looking at the configs, should votifier be working?

    Just because we haven't tested it doesn't mean it doesn't work with it.

    @KramerC: Go

    Oh okay. Well could PermissionsEx compatibility be coming in the near future?

    @AirCougar: Go

    We are uncertain as we have not tested Votifier with PermissionsEx.

    @KramerC: Go

    Hmm, so could that prevent it from working? Or should it definitely be working right now?

    @AirCougar: Go

    That error isn't produced by Votifier. It looks like an error with PermissionsEx.

    @KramerC: Go

    I still cant seem to get it to work. This is my config, http://pastebin.com/mVQbrUws I believe this is the error i get when someone votes, seems to be about automessage?http://pastebin.com/za0jZhrw Im using the FlatFileVoteListener which doesnt seem to have a config, and im using the VaultListener for EssentialsEcon, this is its config, http://pastebin.com/9ksUL2RA Then on planetMinecraft i have Votifier enabled and the same info with the ports and address, and it says it should work.

    Votifier listens over TCP.
