Why was Honeypot created?
Honeypot is a customizable anti-grief plugin which allows any placeable block to be used as a trap for players looking to grief. It can be used to catch Xray-ers, deter griefers from breaking unprotected builds, and more. Honeypot plugins were popularized back in the early days of Minecraft servers but never really took off due to their lack of customization, updates, or difficulty to configure, setup, and/or maintain. This plugin was designed to be simple, lightweight, and easy to use for staff and admins.

Note 📒
Honeypot Anti-Grief Solution is not designed to replace plugins such as Lands, WorldGuard, GriefPrevention, CoreProtect, etc. Please make sure you have another protection and rollback plugin to prevent mass griefing. Honeypot is just meant to keep honest people honest and to catch bad actors without moderators having to constantly monitor players. I highly recommend CoreProtect and GriefPrevention, but if you have the money to spend, Lands is an awesome plugin as well.
This plugin is currently written for Minecraft 26+ and is compiled using Java 25. If you are not running Java 25 on your server, or running on older versions of Minecraft, this plugin is not for you.
