@DaSammyt
Your permissions file is invalid, please post it.

 

Code:

groups:
  default:
  prefix:'&8[&aGuest&8]'
  options:
  default: true
  permissions:
  - modifyworld.chat
schema-version: 1
Owner:
  prefix:'&8[&bO&7wner&8]'
  options:
  default: true
  permissions:
  - modifyworld.chat
inheritance: default

 

"inheritance" needs to be in line with "permissions"

 

@DaSammyt
I fixed your file, here it is:
http://pastebin.com/DUKb93hJ

Also, as a tip for the future, because YAML can be quite tricky because of spaces and stuff you can use this tool to create your permission file:
