Bukkit

2.1

• Added /ipreport command (Permission: maxbans.ipreport), basically does /dupeip on everyone online

2.0

• Overhaul of Syncer and how it works.

• Debug option for syncer
• Improved syncer: Now accepts more commands, rangebans are synced, whitelists and immunities, and more.
• All bans are automatically synced now if the syncer is setup through the BanManager class.
• Added delay to Syncer authentication
• Changed syncer to blacklist IP's after 10 failed attempts
• Parse colour codes from syncer properly to console
• Parse debug colour codes from syncer properly
• Reimplemented queue
• Removed exception printing in most cases, enable syncer.debug: true if you want to see these again! (Debug purposes, ofcourse)
• Bungee Support
  - Small issue with players changing from a banned IP to an unbanned one, players have to try to join twice!
  - Players will now show up with the correct IP on bungee through /checkip and more
  - Also reworked IP bans to account for the new IP checks
  - *Must* enable bungee support in the config! (bungee: true).
  - You *should* use the syncer if you use Bungee!
• Removed update checking, I will hopefully reimplement this in later versions.
• Fixed a bug where new SQLite databases wouldn't setup properly
• Fixed duplicate commands when using /mbreload
• Fixed an error when a new player joins using Bungee, causing a NullPointer on their IP address

0.8

• Initial Release

**These issues are due to the "bungee: true" option in the config, and are caused by the way Bungee handles IP addresses!**
**These do not apply to servers with bungee that use ip forwarding!**
- Banned IP's may connect to the server, but will be disconnected in the next server tick (Plus the response time from the Bungee server)
