Could we get a /setjoin command for the players so they could create there own message that ges displayed each time they connect to the server, for example
if lawful it could say player X reporting for duty
or a pirate it might say "avast ye landlubbers"

could be done with a simple plugin actually, if eagle doesnt want to add it to the main FLAC core i could add it to my list of stuff to do

Anything that can be done through plug ins should be build as such, it then doesn't matter who picks it up 1st 
Should I put up a request section in the public area so other folks willing and able to write plug ins can see what sort of functionality is desired?

if i was to do it id have it work as a command to set the join message, if no join message is set it wont show anything appart from "New player ......". so when the person does
/setjoinmsg BullDogg has just joined
it would create a join message file within the players MP folder, then from then on when the player joins it sends the message to the universe.
@ Eagle - would it be possible to stop the New Player message and just have the custom join message if they have it enabled?

Can't block the "New player" messages through FLAC or plug in system atm.

@Bulldog, did you ever get round to removing that really annoying bright green credit banner message. If not then can you i would much rather set it myself in the rest of the banners and not have it appear so regularly.
