NoobResponse
NoobResponse - Automatic Reply with Message and/or Actions!
This is THE plugin that will save you 1000 keystrokes a day!
I made this plugin because I myself am a server owner, and the innumerable amount of noob questions I was asked day after day was becoming simply intolerable... "How do I change my skin?", "Can I be an op?", etc.
And that's why I created this plugin, it's an automatic responder/chatbot/messager which will respond/reply to chat messages. You can set up triggers the plugin should respond to. For example:
- Player: "Can I get op?"
- Plugin: "No." And at the same time, the player would be killed or teleported or kicked, ...
NoobResponse requires Java SE 7 to run.

Configuration
The best way to set up a Trigger(= Response) is to use the wizard we have built in. The command for the wizard is "/nrwizard <triggerID>" Make sure you choose a unique triggerID!
List of replacements here. A full list of actions is available here.
If you really want to set up triggers in the config manually, you can copy the example trigger and modify it, or set up old-style triggers in config.yml under 'messages'. (these will be converted automatically on server startup/reload)
For reference, the old style actions & variables can be found here.
FAQ
Q: Is the response shown to all players?
A: There is a configuration setting for this, the wizard will ask you.

It is only sending it to the player. If you scroll a bit down, you'll see that I already answered that question. edit: on page 2 of the comments.
I havent tried it yet, but it would be nice to only display the plugin's messages to the players asking the questions, to prevent spam.
Ha Ha! Cool! This should be fun! Give those noobs something of their own ;)
@np98765
Ok, support for this has now been added, it's in version 1.04. Bukkit stil has to approve the file ...
@Enrux The file is waiting for approval.
@Odiumxxx No sorry, I've had unpleasant surprises before when releasing source code.
Add apostrophe support please!
For example, "im from planet minecraft" and "i'm from planet minecraft" should have the same response. Or "I've been griefed!" and "Ive been griefed".
Thanks! Very good plugin!
Great plugin! I love it!
Simply to use, effective, simple in-game comands, awesome!
ps: I will like to see the kick feature :D
This is a fantastic idea. :)
Definitely going to give it a try, Thankyou.
EDIT: Any plans to include regex wildcards in the future? or of making the source available?
This plugin is really good, helpful for those people who ask the same questions over and over. 5*'s
Yes
This plugin is looking great, especially for owners of large servers. They will be able to cut down on answering questions, and spend more time on actually improving their servers.
Ok, thanks for the response!
@sheepwool7
It is just sent to the player.
Is it possible to make an option to send the response just to the player? That way people in local chats won't see random responses. Thanks.
Or sectences with "can" "have" and "op" or something
@Trewyy
Actually, I'm almost done implementing just that :D.
Sounds like a great idea, my only qualm is that it will take hours to set up every question ever asked and then make responses. I think this plugin could be brilliant if it detected things like spelling errors. As an example, someone types: "Can I hav Op?", and then it still gives the answer "No".
Good work though, its a great start!
