    Also, would you use it on your server, except for that *one thing*? If so, let me know what you would prefer changed. If it's reasonable, it'll be implemented!

    This plugin is always going to be under development, and is always open to suggestions. I would prefer to adapt it to match the needs of the bukkit community. Let me know your feedback! =]

    Maybe let it Import current Stats & Achievements stats? maybe. Otherwise maybe not.

    Although I'm unsure of the benefit of having globally logged block placement as it's not very much a 'rank'

    Well, minecraft is all about building. It ultimately lets users see who's more active, and compete to see who can build more.

    Edit: Site updated! You can now search for a specific player name, and additionally view the total amount of time a player has played for, along with the most active server that player plays on.

    This is absolutely amazing and good for hosts that don't provide any PHP hosting for servers who want to have a ranking system. The fact that you can see the top players on any servers is really appealing to me.

    Also, is it possible to let this mod keep track of things like mob kills, ore finds, etc? Having a central location to store these detailed statistics would be really appealing for people like myself who have no PHP access to show webstats.

    Another idea that might be neat to implement is the idea of central achievements. I know there are already achievement plugins, but combining those with this stats that allows a server to display its own achievements would be really neat.

    Does the plugin support being told by the remote server that it is out of date? Does the plugin only push data specified by the plugin itself, or does the server pull the data? I assume the first one. If so, then the server should be able to send a message to the plugin that it needs to be updated if you add extra data to be sent out. (Not sure how it's handled)

    I'll definitely consider all that. =]
    I was just thinking of this. I'll be adding it in V1.10, so when you start up your server, it'll show you in the console if the plugin is out of date.

    Hey Intelli! Brilliant plugin and thank you so much!

    I use DeathMessagePlugin and take the log file and convert it to a table for pvp score keeping. Totally cant wait for updates!

    Updated to bukkit 670.

    Added an automatic version check, so if you're using an outdated version of the plugin, it notifies you in the console when starting the server.

    Seems like there may be a serious issue with this, when I enabled it player logins forced the server to lock for 10 seconds, and some players started being unable to login completely . Also world load times started spiking and players noticed considerable lag attempting when moving around the world (just loading chunks)

    I'm not sure how this transmits data atm, but it probably should be done every X minutes not live. Basically just a stats plugin that logs locally and then updates to the server on a schedule.

    Hmm, are you sure it was this plugin? I'm presently using it on my one server, which consistently has 50+ players online, with absolutely no performance impact.

    as soon as I removed it no more lag on login, no more server lockups, and no more connection reset errors.

    Fixed an issue server-side that was preventing the plugin to start-up for servers.

    MCRanks now has player rank data for over 1,000 players!

    And quickly increasing, too. =]

    well i mean like you could keep track of what type of block it is and broken and placed, and sorry to say but once mc 1.5 comes out your work will be wasted because of the stats that minecraft will keep for achievements. maybe you can integrate their system when it comes out though.. who knows.

    Yeah, I'm eagerly awaiting the addition to this plugin that allows the tracking of type of blocks broken, monsters killed, blocks created, etc. Even if the 1.5 stats update hits and players utilize it to display their stats, I believe there is still a place for MCRanks because it displays server statistics as a whole. As it stands, the amount of blocks destroyed is hardly much of a statistic without breaking it down further.

    It's actually presently based on the amount of blocks placed.
    However, I'll be adding more features to the plugin shortly.

    Update: I plan to discontinue this plugin, unless funding/donations are obtained in order to cover server costs. If you're interested in contributing, or are a developer interested in taking over this plugin, please send me a message!
     
  21. This plugin needs to be updated to 689 build, i was just using it and it was having issues with "threads"!

    It's highly unlikely that the plugin will be updated since the author plans to discontinue it due to costs of running the server.
     
  23. - I plan to help the costs out of this guys server.

    Hey, i would really like this plugin for my server!
    But it says everytime " Error make sure you have registered.. etc."
    I have actually registered with all right info and i have placed the API_Key
    But im also usin an Hamachi and im not sure if that affects it cuz it does automaticly port in the site, even if i dont use the port to join in my server.

    And if i placed the API_Key wrongly:

    #MCRanks Configuration File - API Key Obtained From MCRanks.com
    key=API_KEY 4db00cc32d9b7

    please correct me :).

    HAHA, I accidently made space after the code so it was 82bytes file instead of 81 and then it worked.
    P.S thx for the help! :)

    Everyone loves the ranking system!
    I improved it a bit with Army ranks, 250 blocks = corporal, 600 = sergeant, 50.000 = marshall :D over 10 ranks i think :) Great plugin.
