WhyTheyLeave

This plugin tracks and analyzes player metrics for everyone who joins and leaves your Minecraft server. On each connection or departure, it collects detailed data — what the player does, how long they stay, and their in-game behavior — to help identify potential issues (loss of interest, suspicious activity, sudden drops in player retention, etc.).

The plugin has two main goals:

Understand why players leave, so you can improve the overall server experience (gameplay, community, onboarding, and more).

Provide clear, reliable statistics to monitor the long-term health of your server (retention rates, activity patterns, player gains/losses, and more).

This tool is especially useful for server administrators who want to optimize player retention, detect patterns in player departures (e.g., players leaving after a certain number of minutes or after specific actions), and make data-driven decisions — whether it’s adjusting rules, adding new features, or improving new-player onboarding.
