Notoriety

A Paper plugin that brings a classic MMORPG-style notoriety system to Minecraft. Players are dynamically categorized based on their actions, creating a self-regulating community where crime has consequences.

Features

Reputation System

Players are classified into three states based on their behavior:

Status	Color	Condition
Innocent	Blue	Alignment ≥ 0, PKCount = 0
Criminal	Gray	Alignment < 0, PKCount = 0
Murderer	Red	PKCount ≥ 1

Ownership Protection

• Blocks placed by innocent players are automatically protected
• Breaking or stealing from others' property is a crime
• 5-second grace period to undo accidental actions
• Owned blocks are protected from explosions (Creeper, TNT, etc.)

Three-State Trust System

• TRUST - Grant full access to your property
• UNSET - Default state; guild members get automatic trust
• DISTRUST - Block access even from guild members

Guild System

Form groups with automatic trust relationships:
