📨 AutoMessages999

AutoMessages999 is a powerful, customizable Bukkit plugin that automatically sends messages to players on your server — on a timed interval and/or when they join. It's built for performance, flexibility, and precision, with full support for permissions, world-specific filtering, per-message configuration, and a wide range of dynamic placeholders.
