Note

If you see a warning in the console (WARN: There are still nicked players online...), you can ignore it when restarting/reloading the server. This is only important if you want to disable the plugin manually. The nicknames and skins cannot be updated when the plugin is disabled. Please use /simplenick resetall before disabling the plugin. Players with wrong names/skins will have to rejoin the server if the plugin is disabled to update.
