NoobResponse - Automatic Reply with Message and/or Actions!

This is THE plugin that will save you 1000 keystrokes a day!

I made this plugin because I myself am a server owner, and the innumerable amount of noob questions I was asked day after day was becoming simply intolerable... "How do I change my skin?", "Can I be an op?", etc.

And that's why I created this plugin, it's an automatic responder/chatbot/messager which will respond/reply to chat messages. You can set up triggers the plugin should respond to. For example:

Player: "Can I get op?"
Plugin: "No." And at the same time, the player would be killed or teleported or kicked, ...

NoobResponse requires Java SE 7 to run.

Configuration

The best way to set up a Trigger(= Response) is to use the wizard we have built in. The command for the wizard is "/nrwizard <triggerID>" Make sure you choose a unique triggerID!

List of replacements here. A full list of actions is available here.

If you really want to set up triggers in the config manually, you can copy the example trigger and modify it, or set up old-style triggers in config.yml under 'messages'. (these will be converted automatically on server startup/reload)

For reference, the old style actions & variables can be found here.
