Description:
PlotGuardian was first intended to be used on a server called ConsiliumCraft, BuilderPlot was not supporting PermissionsEx back then and the plugin appeared not to work very well for our use. As a result of this I started the development of PlotGuardian which originally implemented both WorldGuard and WorldEdit which made the plugin dependent on two other plugins and I was restricted to their code. As from version 1.5 I took a further step ahead and re-coded the whole plugin to make it completely stand-alone.
PlotGuardian protect plots which easily can be created with just one command, no need for separate worlds when you can have re-useable plots implemented into your current world. You can also create a protective plot which protects an area while users with plots inside those areas are still able to build in those.
For those of you who rule economy servers can also enable the economy feature in this plugin to allow users to buy and sell their plots using a sign. This is possible by just typing '[plot]' on the first row and the price on the second (example: '$100'). As the plot name can't be seen on the sign it must be placed in the plot to work.
Features:
- Protection for any plot created with the plugin
- Make the plots at any size you want them
- Use any names you want for the plots
- Sell the plots at any price you want
- Easy to use commands for both players and admins
- Protective plots
- Protect areas outside plots
- Protect blocks against interactions outside plots
- Add as many members you want
- Claim as many plots you want
- Command parameters for faster plot creation
- Full permission support
- Multiple worlds support
- Vault Economy support (disabled by default, vault is not needed if disabled)
Compatibility:
PlotGuardian will work just fine as long as you do not have any other plugin using the '/plugin' command, diamondselector (the diamond) or the blazerod. If you plan to use economy you must have Vault installed on your server. Vault doesn't have to be installed if economy support is not needed.

We'll see how the server turns out. Probably going for a more free-build server with a couple of changes. I have to go for today so if you'd like to speak with me I'd suggest sending me a PM here on BukkitDev. :)
@Mshax085
:D if you happen to start a server again, pm me! i want to join. I just restarted my own server but with a different world, plugins and best of all, a new host! haha i internet connection sucked, so now im having a host. If you'd like to join i would be honored :3 plus i'd like to talk to you about your plugins!
@kyrosiakio46
Thank you :) If I chose to start-up my own server again the development of this plugin will go even faster :)
Ms, I for one love your plugin :) I appreciate your hard work you put in it, without expecting anything in return. people should not bitch at you for not doing something they want, its up to you man. continue being awesome !
U got mail - check your PM

The war already started since you threatened me to stop using the plugin. I really don't give a darn whether one or twohundred servers use my plugin. Take it or leave it.
Who cares m8? :) I just discussed with something that many of users argue. Believe or not , many of the users that use this plugin , for sure they wanted the compatibility with WG. But like u said. u the cretor and i need respect that , but sure m8, ill leave it , its okay. U got 4 months ago a Donation right? Maybe u will get more. but not from me :) Keep the good work with the plugin. if anytime u rollback and use WG support. ill keep supporting you. Peace m8 - i will never enter in war with a plugin Author . I just say my opinion - u accept or not is up to you. Like your plugin , we accept or not. Cheers

If you're so addicted to WorldGuard, why did you even upgrade to a later version of this plugin anyway? Many people ask if this plugin can override WorldGuard, it can't but it can replace WorldGuard and you may only loose certain features which WorldGuard supported. Honestly, I don't care a single bit how many people are using my services. Those plugins are free of charge and developed by my demands, not someone elses, that's why I made this plugin in the first place. The features of this plugin was accepted and implemented by me, not anyone else. You make a choice, whether to use it or not, I just provide the service. If you want to bitch about how much I'm "doing wrong" by following my own demands I gladly invite you to have a private chat with me, having such argumentative chat here is just stupid. Take it or leave it.
Ok Mshax085 Since beggining ive said this was one the best plugins about plots.. idk if u remember me but seems not. Im owner of 3 servers in portugal. when u started make thisp lugin i was one of the 1st to test and use it. In the time u used world guard and was perfect. Then with the upgrades u started to (sorry say) ruin the plugin. One of my servers is closed due to that changes. I hade over 1000 plots protected with world guard region with plots builded there.. I have over 8 Ranks becouse its an RPG server and i cant do so many groupa flags to bipass the region worldgruard protection. So i closed the server. Now , me and my team we wanted to open a new world. based on the same RPG system . We have a central Spawn and aroud we wanted the plots so ppl live inside town.. now since i cant protect all zone and give them flags and have the plots there protected, ill leave the plugin. Sorry mate.. for long time i used your service... now i wont. I know u dont care.. 200+ ppl use it without complains , but as far u can read.. many ppl use and ask you why cant use the plot with worldguard.. There. this was my 2cents - ill start to use then plotme. Cheers

I made PlotGuardian stand-alone as such decision would allow me to create new features more freely. Having the plugin combined with WorldGuard can be complicated for new users and to have one plugin to manage that with easier commands is a better choice. If I feel like updating this plugin with more features, It'll eventually have all options WorldGuard has. If you think it's easy to integrate WorldGuard with the system I use in PlotGuardian, tell me how I should do it, please.
This is a free plugin, you make your own choice whether to use it or not, I just provide the service. Maybe you'll loose hours of work but I guess leaving this plugin will have you loose even more hours as you must to find a new plugin to replace this one. You are one of 200+ people using this server on daily basis, just sayin'.
Ms okay but think like this. Ive build an Huge Freaking spawn with a big area around that the city inside walls. Then inside that walls i have the plots - so ppl can claim and start playing inside protected area. Then when they rank up they can create Clans and go outside.. blablabla.
Now.. ive protected a hige area with worldguard.. gaved them nice flags. Lost hours creating and put to seel over 300 plots.. and now they just cant use it becouse cant override world guard?? Damn man. why not can u implant that option like u did on beggining of this plugin , as far i remember.. i was one of the 1st to use this and he used the worldguard nicely.. why not implant that again?
I tryed the protective plot.. but mobs keep coming and i dont like that.. then tryed to add owner a group and messes up all my spawn perms..
Is so easy to you implant the world guard override...
Tbh.. i want that override or i will not use this plugin and i will lose hours of work :(
I won't post separate comments for each of your questions, that'll be too many replies. I have read the suggestions and I'll see whether I can implements those or not. The development has been put on hold for quite a while.
The most common question is whether this plugin will override WorldGuard or not. It won't. Instead, there is a option to use protective plots and place the normal user plots in them.
One Question. Im add an arena and protect with World Guard - then inside i create many plots and put them for sale. When a member buy the plot - it say thet he bought it - but then he cant build inside. Does this plugin overwrite world guardian or i cant make a Area protected by it?
Also I think more admin commands can be a better feature? For example: /plot addowner plot1 Mshax085 and the one I put before
/plot list Mshax085
also could u add the feature where someone can claim a protected area? because i would like the protected area to be like a town, and then the town owner be able to make plots in his town. but not be able to make plots outside of his town
Hey love the plugin! Practically just like the custom made plugin my server has that i play on.
suggestions: Could you add a config file where we are able to change the default messages? also the plugin message of "[PlotGuardian] bla bla bla" i would like to change it to [Zones] as that is what my players are most accustomed to.
2) Could you add a way to have players catch on fire, when they try to build in places they are not allowed to, like in the protective plots, and in other peoples plots that they are not a member of?
Also a admin command to list all the plots listed by another player?
Example: /plot list Mshax085
Little bug: When you can't afford a plot it will say: You do not have enough money bla bla bla. You currently only have 1845.676123552156 dollars. Can you fix that so it only shows two decimal places?
You see the commands with no permissions needed, Is there a way to set that of? Because I don't want some ranks buying plots and I want some to do so.
My opinion is:
Actually the best plugin made for guarding plots. Makes life MUCH easier, no more messing with WorldGuard commands. Thanks!
But I want to ask one thing. If my world is protected as a region by WorldGuard, will PlotGuardian use the goods of parenting of WorldGuard?
