import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
 
public class WJ extends JavaPlugin implements Listener {
 
    int start = 1; // starting point in your phrase, word, or letter
  int spaces = 20; // for spaces   
    public void onEnable(){
            getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this);
    }
 
    @EventHandler
    public void Joinit(PlayerLoginEvent event){
        final Player player = event.getPlayer();
        Bukkit.getServer().getScheduler().scheduleSyncDelayedTask(this, new Runnable()
        {
        public void run()
        {
            for(; start <= 5;){
            if ( start == 1)
            {
            for(; spaces <= 0; --spaces)
            {
            player.sendMessage("");
            }
            player.sendMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + "H");
            }
            else if ( start == 2)
            {
            for(; spaces <= 0; --spaces)
            {
            player.sendMessage("");
            }
            player.sendMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + "He");
            }
            else if ( start == 3)
            {
            for(; spaces <= 0; --spaces)
            {
            player.sendMessage("");
            }
            player.sendMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + "Hel");
            }
            else if ( start == 4)
            {
            for(; spaces <= 0; --spaces)
            {
            player.sendMessage("");
            }
            player.sendMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + "Hell");
            }
            else if ( start == 5)
            {
            for(; spaces <= 0; --spaces)
            {
            player.sendMessage("");
            }
            player.sendMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + "Hello");
            }
        }
        }
        }, 40L );
    }
 
}
 

 

Look at your for-clause

Code:

 for(; start <= 5;){

and then look at any programming tutorial you want to figure out how to use for clauses

 

L33m4n123 I cant see whats wrong!

 

You do an infinite loop, yet want it to increase but nowhere tell it to increase. Look here how to propperly use for Statements
