@SilusGames
I'm glad you haven't abandoned it fully, I hope you will have time to update it in the future :) The main thing is that links are replaced with twitter links (not sure if it's possible to prevent that though) and that you can't click them.

Sorry for recent inactivity guys! I am ALWAYS on twitter if you needed to get in contact with me. If some of you could follow / DM me (programmers) I would be VERY happy to get the code up on GitHub!
Since College, among other things has really brought my development of this plugin to a halt (even the bukkit situation) I would really like other programmers who have experience to help me out.
Hit me up on twitter and we can start working on it ASAP.
Hunter Mitchell @FeaR_CODE
Idea: Add the option to not display tweets in-game? I just want to be able to post them ,,
If anyone has another plugin that only does this (AND IS UPDATED), that would be super useful (:
I assume this would be pretty easy to do/
It will also be a good idea to upload your code to GitHub under GNU license so people can help and add extra features
Great plugin! Could you add a command to broadcast the latest tweet?
Thanks
Hi Silus,
I have two suggestions for your nice plugin. It is not possible to click on the urls tweets in game, it would be great to fix it.
What would be really nice too is that we can further customize the display of tweets in game (title, dotted, etc.).
Once again, thank you for your work,
Uti

@FeaR_CODE is my main Twitter.
@SilusGames
Msg'ed you on twitter
@TheOnlyRealTGS
Yes, i will try to have a timed delay to check tweets. Also, the ability to hover in chat is impossible (Unless someone has a modded client). Since Bukkit does not run on the client per say, i dont have the ability to create that onHover effect. Also, since i have been very busy with other work, progress is slow. I would love for another developer to help me out. Please contact me on twitter for a faster response. Thanks.
@SilusGames
Cool! Just started using it and it's awesome :) If possible, could you do so when you hover over the twitter username in chat (@name) it will display a box that says "Click to open" or something, and then open up the twitter webpage? Would be awesome :)
Also, It would be useful to have a 10 second delay before displaying the tweet, because sometimes I delete my tweet quickly after posting it (due to spelling mistakes etc)
Hey guys, i am working on TweetCraft 4.0! This has been a VERY busy couple of months. I got graduation out of the way, and i am still finishing up some websites. I can not wait to release it. Also, i am looking for people interested in helping me with this plugin, and working on knew plugins as well. Please Hit me up on Twitter @FeaR_CODE if you know Java and are interested in helping. Thanks!
@Matthiasiam
Yes, the plugin is waiting till the Tweet Stream is fully closed until it shuts down. I will try to fix this and sorry for this inconvenience. If you would post some info on what your sever does (Detailed if possible) and i will have this fixed in the next release. :) Also, i am about to PM you my contact info so i can help you and everyone else with this issue as fast and easy as possible. And thank you for reporting this!
@SilusGames
Thanks! Also, TweetCraft hangs every single time the server shuts down, causing some internal issues regarding restarting them and scripts. It hangs on every single server I have on my network. Thanks! :)
@Matthiasiam
Oh haha, that is when someone tweets that you follow. I forgot to remove that from the debugger. This will be removed on the next release. All that was just to help me while programming it. So, nothing to worry about.
And yes, everything you tweet will show up on the server. On the next release, i will see if i can remove the tweets that contain @'s . This will be configure in the config file.
And again, thank you for using the plugin and i cant wait to release TweetCraft 4.0 in the near future.
Also, even though i do check this page sometimes, if there is a quick need for an issue. Please contact me on twitter @FeaR_Code Thanks!
Love this plugin! not sure what this is though?

Also, it notifies and announces every-time I tweet @ someone. Like a response to a help tweet. It should not announce replies, just regular twitter updates. Or it just spams everyone on the server. :)
@SilusGames
Cool Man!
@portapipe
Yes, i am working on this hotfix, but i think i will just update to a full 4.0 LOL. And the video i said i was making, well, i have to pospone that until after 4.0 since it will contain MASSIVE changes and EPIC features. :D
