This plugin allows you to register your nickname. No other person can use it.

By default, only level 2 users or above can register their nicks. (Configurable in nickreg.xml)

********* New functionality provided *********
!registernick or !nickreg
Registers your current nickname as yours. No other person can use it. If somebody does, they will get warns and get kicked.

!deletenick or !delnick
De-registers your nick. Use this if you don't intend to keep using that nick.

!findnick
Find who is using a given nickname

!removenick or !remnick
De-register that player.

Hah, that's funny. I wrote similar plugin a bit ealier. The difference is that if player triggers the command "!registermynick" or "!rmn" this nick is not registered already. It's just a nick registration request. It stays in the DB till I accept it or refuse registration. Nick acceptance is done through new echelon tab Would you like to see it? (It's not 100% finished, just 97% - however it's working fine).

When someone is kicked for using a registered nickname which isnt his/hers, it gives this reason: This nickname isn't yours!

Would it be possible to add the nickname he/she was trying to use?

[Ismael]

Anubis plugin seems a good idea. Though, not for all use-cases (I don't use Echelon on any of my servers). If you're willing to release the code as GPL, yes, I'd like to see your code, and maybe look at what we can merge.

Universalrose: I'll add that feature in the next round of developing (when I get time). I also plan to add some commands so that admins can revoke nicks, and look who registered some nick.

Looking forward to next update, Ismael

One question:

It registers the nick with the user GUIDs? right?

A few ideas:

- Request to add a password to the nick when registered (!nickreg <password>), so if the user loses his profile, he can !delnick [<nick> <password>] ---> of course <nick> is optional, and password would only be needed if the user specifies a nick argument.
- Automatically delete nicks not beeing used anymore to make room for new users (nick not used in 3 months, for example) (you can use the client.lastVisit propertie)

Yeah, an sql statement:

Code: sql

DELETE FROM (nicktable) WHERE timeadd < UNIX_TIMESTAMP - 129600

, in a cron job to be run every night...

no, that would delete nick that are being used too..
i want to delete only nicks that wasn't used in X time (ex. 3 months)

The problem with the password is that everyone can see the password when I register my nick. What keeps somebody from taking over my nick?

Auto-deletion seems like a good idea. There's no need to add anything to the nicks table, I'll just look into the associated ID.
