Add as many lines as you want by adding bullet points in your config!
Change your Slots and OnlinePlayerCount!

Tell your players what version of Minecraft to use!
Hide your Slots and OnlinePlayerCount! (Bukkit/Spigot only)
Do you want to hide your slots and online players? This will bring you some privacy! ;-) Note: HoverText and all other slots manipulations have to be disabled.
RestrictedMode - Your server appears to be offline! (Bukkit/Spigot only)
Players without OP/Permissions will see this in their serverlist when RestrictedMode is ON.
Players with OP/Permissions will see this in their serverlist when RestrictedMode is ON.
SlotsPlusOne
SlotsPlusOne generates a custom slots count based on your online players. Often used by big server to fake an almost full server. In simple terms, you basically add one slot to your current number of online players.
Example: 10 players online - custom number: 1 - 11 slots --> 10/11
Example: 27 players online - custom number: 5 - 32 slots -- > 27/32
You can create a min and max limit to prevent from having for example 1 slot when no one is online.
OnlineMultiplier
OnlineMultiplier generates a fake online players count by multiplying it with a number set in config!
When the multiplied number gets above your min slots, it will adjust the slots by adding a custom number to it!
When the multiplied number gets above your max slots, it will set the online player count and slots to your max value -> see config (Example 100/100)
Example (Min Slots: 100):10 players online - multiply by 5 - 50 players online/ 100 slots (50 Players < Min Slots -> Min Slots = Slots and no adjustment with the custom number)
Example (Min Slots: 10) 12 players online - multiply by 2(24 Players + 5 -> CustomNumber ( = Slots) - 24 players online/ 29 slots
Example (Max Slots: 100): 50 players online - multiply by 3 - 100 players online / 100 slots (because 150 > 100)

Metrics
ServerlistMOTD (below X!) collects anonymous data. You cann see everthing over here at bStats:
Bungeecord: bStats *click me*
Spigot/Bukkit: bStats *click me*
I switched to bStats as mcstats.org is very unreliable. You can find the Metrics for ServerlistMOTD 1.0-6.2 right here: mcstats.org (if available)
ServerlistMOTD doesn't collect Metrics!
Hey guys,
I uploaded the 6.1 update that supports 1.9, adds little features and removes some bugs. The file still needs approval but will be available within the next hours.
Changelog:
@BrenkyLINDA
ServerlistMOTD should work with 1.9 - Just download a 1.9 compatible ProtocolLib version. (I have not tested it but Metrics show that 1.9 servers are using the plugin)
Edit: ProtocolLib 3.6.5 should work.
1.9 Support coming soon?
@KingDGrizzle
Are there any error messages in your console? A config regen comes with an error message.
Hey!
Soo like, I can't figure it out..
I tryed everything but whenever I reload the config file, it turns empty... It deletes everything... And nothing works!
I'ma put the file on ZippyShare, please tell me where I did wrong..
Link:http://www19.zippyshare.com/v/MNgu4b21/file.html
Thanks! KingDGrizzle
Hey, I love your plugin! It's great! :D
But, these is a problem. When I ban someone the ban message does not show up. :(
I use MaxBans to ban people. Is that why?
Config:
BanMessage:
Enable: true
MessageTempBan: '&cYou are banned from EverBlock!%line% Reason: &e%reason% &cExpiration: &e%expdate% at %exptime%'
MessageForeverBan: '&cYou are banned from EverBlock!%line% Reason: &e%reason%&cExpiration: &e Permanent Ban'
Thanks!
@JumpzCurse
Send me your whole server log!
1. Have you installed ProtocolLib? 2. Is your world name 'world'? If not please change your world name in your config?
Love this plugin. Used it lots on every server I have owned. But I just got a new server and installed it and it shows up red in /plugins so is not working... Please help
can you add a source code?
@Kevdude0625
Just rename or delete your config and restart your server. The plugin automatically creates a new fresh one :-)
Could you post an example of the config? I kind of screwed mine up. Thanks!
@mortelmax
There is 100% an error message from ServerlistMOTD (just 1 line)! Please open a ticket with the whole server log from the startup or send me a pm including the log :-) The plugin disables itself in only a few cases (no ProtocolLib, wrong world name in config, ...)
Hi, I just installed the plugin but it appears in red in the list of plugins (/ plugins) so it is not functional for me. I have the very latest version of Spigot, ServerlistMOTD, Vault and ProtocolLib. The console does not display an error. Can u help me ? :) (sorry for my english)
@assasinsheep
Open a ticket with your config and the whole error log :-)
hello I seem to have a issue with getting the plugin to work for some reason it thinks my world is invalid I put it in the correct world name but it wont load the plugin I am using spigot 1.8.8 and I can screenshots if needed.
v6.0 is waiting for approval. :-) See it as my christmas gift for you. Merry Christmas! <3 Strumswell
@Zephlon
Both nice ideas but imo useless. I think to copy&paste a small string everytime isn't very time consuming. And the one set of motds is not necessary and would confuse the user anyways. (You need two different sets because you can't use user specific variables in the newbies section. Reason: Read the text above or the comment below.)
@Kevdude0625
I am sorry but you are wrong. Please keep in mind not to use regulars ONLY variables in newbies section. Here is a link to the variables: click. You can't use user specific variables in the newbies section because the server doesn't know the player. (A visit in the server list (ping) doesn't tell the server who he/she is.) That's why I use IP-logging in this plugin and players have to join atleast one time to get recognised by the server. (until his/her IP changes). If you are still unable to use any variable just open a ticket with your config.
The variables don't work.
Hi Bro, Im want to help to u in the pictures, im now instaling this awesome Plugin on my Server, if you want, send to me a email:
