Presenting hostprofiles: A definitive solution to staff abuse

[/u/MCMDEV]

I want to dedicate this post to self-promote one of my plugins, hostprofiles. And while I partially do this to get some downloads, I genuinely think that it can solve a problem we had no proper solution for yet.

hostprofiles itself is a very simple plugin: It allows you to setup special domains that log players in with a different UUID and name. How could this be useful? You can setup a special domain that staff members can join to log into their "staff account", which has all the staff privileges, while their normal account doesn't.

Here is a more specific example taken from the README:

Here is a usage example: If your server address were myserver.com, you could configure admin.myserver.com (the host) as a special host and map the player with the UUID of Joe to be logged with another, predefined UUID, use Admin_Joe as his username and have a completely different skin (the profile). You could then only give Admin_Joe administrator privileges. This means that if Joe joins using myserver.com, he is logged in as Joe and could play as a normal player, but if he logs into admin.myserver.com is logged in as Admin_Joe and can do administrative tasks.

This allows staff members to play like a normal player without being recognized as a staff member, which is completely unaffected by their duties as a staff. You could even force staff accounts to be in a permanent staff mode.

I've used the plugin on an Event survival project and a permanent SMP now, with very positive reception from users.
