PluginMetrics

Upon release, this plugin will in fact collect user statistics. PluginMetrics is simply collecting information about plugin usage, such as how many servers are using a plugin and how many players are on servers using this plugin.
PluginMetrics will collect:

• Username
• Server used on

Website Administration

This plugin will, when released, do several things to allow the plugin to communicate with your server website!

• Record civilization modifications in a file, that will be formatted with color configuration to fit any website design
  Format:
  12-14-2013 2:37:21 Notch - /c
• Record records of what users are online and how long they are online, ordering them by who is online most or alphabetically by name
  Format:
  Users Online(3): Notch, CopyableCougar4, SynHD
  

Economy System

One of the best parts about this plugin is that is comes with a built-in economy system, based on gold coins! This means if you have a large server with lots of plugins, there isn't any conflict. This also means that if you have a small server, there are no dependencies to download!
