gBan

Have you ever wanted a global banning solution in minecraft? Yes, yes you have. You can't deny it. Stop lying to yourself. With gBan, not only can you now integrate it into your website, but it is the latest and #1 solution for banning and muting across your server network!

gBan utilizes the great power of MySQL; this allows you to ban and mute players across all your servers by connecting them to just one of your MySQL servers. You can have unlimited amount of servers, but only need one MySQL database.

We now have integrated a very great feature, web integration! If you host or own a website, you can upload less than 10 files to have a beautiful ban and mute page. Featuring a stylish black and white design, you will always have the visitors attention! Click here to get started with web integration.

To get started with gBan, please download the latest file from the right. Once you have downloaded it, please put it into your plugin directory (server/plugins/). Now, run the server for the first time. Once the server has started, it will create the config and disable the plugin . Navigate to your plugins directory, and select the gBan folder. Within this folder, please open up the config.yml (server/plugins/gban/config.yml). Now you have done this, please edit the file so it can connect to your mysql server. It should look something like this:

This config is for 2.0; it applies to 2.2 and 2.5.

This plugin utilises Hidendra’s plugin metrics system, which means that the following information is collected and sent to mcstats.org:

• A unique identifier
• The server’s version of Java
• Whether the server is in offline or online mode
• The plugin’s version
• The server’s version
• The OS version/name and architecture
• The core count for the CPU
• The number of players online
• The Metrics version

If you wish to disable this feature (me cries), you can do so by opt-ing out, which you can do in the config file under /plugins/PluginMetrics/
