Urgent Notice

I have been accused of writing a malicious plugin. Since all of my comments are now being marked as Spam, I'm placing this to show I've been falsely accused.

 

Kingie07Gaming's comment:

DO NOT USE THIS PLUGIN! V2 HAS MALWARE! REMOVE IT ASAP IF YOU HAVE IT INSTALLED

Here's my response:

 False positive detected because Antlr is included as a Hibernate dependency (MaxBans Plus depends on Hibernate). I'm told the next update will disable the false positive. Link https://github.com/OpticFusion1/MCAntiMalware/issues/376.

 

 

This is a shame and I'm quite frustrated because of it:

  • I have had my plugin scanned for potentially malicious code by a tool someone wrote
  • A very quick check of my source code shows why: Hibernate depends on Antlr, and Antlr trips the malicious code warning
    • Not even an actual positive, just a warning
  • I have had my Spigot plugin removed, without so much as a notification email
  • I have had my Spigot account banned
    • Without any notification
    • Without any process for appeal other than 'email us'
    • On the word of an amateur accusing half the plugin base of being malicious
  • Notifications have been sent to anyone who starred my plugin, accusing the plugin of being malicious. This really bashes my reputability and I highly doubt Spigot will be publishing a notification declaring my innocence when the newest version of MCAntiMalware declares my plugin safe.

This is not fair.

 

Anyhow: if you don't trust me and want to use the plugin anyway, compile it yourself from GitHub. The source code is all there. https://github.com/netherfoam/MaxBans-Plus

 

Thanks for understanding.

Furthermore, I'm now being declared to be spamming my own plugin page. Can you imagine?

Notifications

MaxBans will notify you when things occur via chat. There are three types of permissions to control this:

 

Broadcast: maxbans.broadcast is the permission node required to see server-wide messages from MaxBans. For example, if a user was banned, everyone with this permission who is currently online will be told that the user was banned. Broadcasting can be disabled by using the -s (s for silent) flag in your command. This is given to players by default, but can be taken away through permission setup.

 

Silent: maxbans.silent is the permission node required to see hidden messages whenever a command with -s is run. Moderators usually want this.

 

Mod: maxbans.mod is the permission to alert moderators when activity occurs on the server. For example, it will notify moderators when a banned player tries to join, or when a muted player tries to chat. This does its best not to spam moderators, and discards similar messages which are generated frequently.

 

Privacy Notice: This plugin uses bStats to track plugin metrics over here at https://bstats.org/plugin/bukkit/MaxBansPlus - The standard information is tracked (geography, mode, version, system specs) as well as activity (bans, mutes, warnings, kicks) and the locale used. This can be disabled by configuring plugins/bStats/config.yml
