NetherBan
When a player gets in trouble NetherBan does not kick them out of the server. It sends them to the Nether instead.
NetherBan takes the player to a spot deep in the Nether. It also stops them from using portals teleporting or going to their homes and other safe places. When the time is up the player goes back to where they were
This is great for lots of servers like SMPs, hardcore servers, prisons, factions and custom punishment systems.
Features
We can choose how long the player stays in the Nether it can be for a while or forever.
The player goes to a random spot in the Nether each time.
They cannot use commands to get out.
They cannot use the Nether portal to escape.
When the time is up the player goes back, to where they were.
We can change the messages and settings to what we want.
NetherBan does not slow down the server.
