Author went out of his way to have both of my previous reviews redacted despite other valid components of my review persisting and valid components addressing his activity also being presented. As the other user below me was insighted, I waited over a month for a response, only to receive a lazy response and was unwilling to adhere to my willingness to assist.
Support is only for bugs and plugin issues, and I fix them, I can't help with third-party commands or setting up a custom configuration for your server, From a quick look you may have just misspelled your crate's name and blaming it on PinataParty not working.
Version: 2.67.8
Best Plugin! Makes my players vote more and has very cool effects! i would buy again!
Support is given to plugin issues/bugs and has always been like this and I reply all the time to people in DMs.
Version: 2.67.8
Despite my various inquries and responses to other customers, I still have not received a response despite my fair (previous) review. I've mentioned numerous times in direct messages that we would be happy to assist in transitioning both plugins to support Folia. At this point, it seems more like an "ego" concern rather than me being a client in need, which is not my issue or problem. We have various sad and disappointed players related to our most popular event (the Pinata) being stripped away from them in conjunction with our **successful** release of Folia that has transformed how our players play Survival and soon Lifesteal. If you have issues or concerns with me, address them privately, and I'd be happy to improve upon myself, as should you in correlation with an issue or problem that we are more than glad to resolve and commit to, rather than entirely relying on you to solve said issue.
There is nothing more to it other than I have no interest in supporting Folia at this moment, and I'm sorry for that.
Version: 2.67.6
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS PLUGIN!
As of 2/22/2025 this plugin DOES NOT work on 1.21.4 despite being in the TITLE OF THE PLUGIN!
Customization features are very limited on the latest Minecraft version, Carpet, Glowing, Boss Bar, Particles, Hit Bar all DO NOT work.
This plugin was also tested in a private environment on a test server on 4 different versions of the plugin and it still does not work!
We reached out to the developer and all we received in return was a message stating that he "does not know the problem, it's works for some people and others it does not". Which is a utter and complete BS response from the developer of a PAID plugin, if it doesn't work for some people then stop making people pay for the plugin.
It's really a bummer that this plugin does not work and the developer has no motive to make it work 100% for all 1.21.4 servers because it's a very unique idea that players on our type of server would really enjoy. Unfortunately however that is not the case.
I'm here to warn all server owners that currently own or are looking to own a 1.21.4 server, if you're thinking about getting this plugin, DO NOT. It will not work for your server and you will be very underwhelmed with the results after you spend your money.
Hopefully in the near future this plugin will get an update to work with the current up to date Minecraft version. Until then, 1 star, waste of money and time.
There are also over 200 servers running it on 1.21.4 and I've only ever received 3 support issues (You and two other people) about this and one of them has stopped replying to me so I assume they have found the issue.

You most likely have a conflicting mod, plugin or a third-party bad server implementation, not a PinataParty issue.
Version: 2.67.6
PinataParty is an invaluable resource on our network. Our players love it, and unfortunately (as of when this review is being written), we have to see it go. Since seeing its initialization and its unique and relatively performant implementation (with some tweaking, might I mention), I chose to install it onto my network. Even when bogging down the Pinata's rewards, over 250 players teleported to spawn to smack the Pinata.
I do value and understand one's inability to maintain a project on a week-to-week basis continually, and I completely respect that; however, I do have some hope in correspondence with receiving a response from an author that semi-actively maintains a resource and maintains that resource in knowing that outside contributors cannot push immediate fixes to resolve said issues. As mentioned at the start of this review, I have to move off PinataParty due to my network's migration to Folia. To some extent, I assume a decent portion of PinataParty's migration requires some scheduler changes and adjustments to the Pinata's teleportation events, which leads me to believe that this is entirely possible.
Although NuVotifier (and others) are not explicitly compatible with Folia, much of their internal changes do not insight specifically tailored changes that permit functionality under that fork. That said, giving the customer the option to use PinataParty under Folia is the best possible option due to the customer's inaccessibility to the plugin's source code.
I hope to see a response in the near future that at the very least denounces this potentiality (I of course hope not) or your call to action relative to its implementation.
Hi i have been able to set up this plugin but the only thing that wont work for me is the vote reminder if some one could help me that would be amazing
Server tps drops dramatically after the required votes for a pinata is completed. I think the plugin is also causing a massive memory leak because server tps has consistent spikes on a timer after the pinata has spawned.
Not PinataParty, it'll be due to one of your rewards.
Version: 2.64.1-BETA
Can't get support anywhere, Having issues with offline voting not sending the commands when the player get online... tried to contact dev but can't send him private message throught spigot, I send a msg in discussion asking for help, but no answer after many days.... just no support at all
looks good but im having problem here the pinata spawn and dissapear direct and theres no clear way to contact the owner as i do not see any discord here for help so would like to get some help here thanks
Such an amazing plugin! Very fun to use! I saw this plugin on a server that I used to play on and decided to buy it when I decided to make my own server. Wonderful.
I really like pinata and it is very fun and attractive, but unfortunately it does not have support for server synchronization as it says in its description, that it has support for huskSync and also when you have a total of 80 - 100 players, and pinata happens, the TPs of the Server drop a lot, I have already reported this but I always get the message that the culprit is my server, the tps is at 20. 20.20, and it happens that the pinata goes to 6-12, when the pinata ends it goes back to 20 after about 5 minutes, when I have the support adapted to synchronize the servers and this drop in TPs I increase it to 5 stars.
if you see below there are people with the same problem about synchronizing servers but there is no support, and also no mysql, all this could be solved by adding support for mysql, for when the pinata seems to be shown on 1 of the servers, and there is no support for huskSync, if you have please create 1 tutorial on how to synchronize the pinata.
i'm not one to give low marks, but unfortunately pinata has disappointed me a lot.
Really good plugin although there is a bug with how many pinatas it spawns when the vote party is set to kick in.
I checked the config over and over again with no success to find whatsup with it.
Where could I receive further help with my issue
I don't understand the need to make this plugin run with HuskSync, there is no reason for the servers to have information shared with others because the servers are different and have different modalities, I have 2 survival servers that are opposite and I will have to use this one better because of a piñata
HuskSync support is added just so players don't lose their rewards due to the inventory syncing and ensures that the rewards are given after HuskSync does its loading.
Version: 2.62.4
How do I make the piñata spawn whenever the vote target is reached? Unfortunately, she is only born once when the day's votes are reached, then the goal is reached but she is not born. ?? help me
Theres no way of messaging for support. I cannot figure out how to set my custom Executive Item i created into the Pinata to be dropped. Such as custom prismarine shards I made.
Add a reward that executes the give command for whatever plugin you used to create the custom item - if it's just an item that custom model data then you can use the vanilla commands to give such item.
Version: 2.62.2
Hi there! I do enjoy this plugin but I am trying to figure out how to get the pinata to drop items that use Custom Model Data. We would like to have the pinata drop custom candy around different holidays.
Bad support, telling me to press a link somewhere to contact him on Spigot Message and receiving an error: " SpigotMC - High Performance Minecraft - Error
You do not have permission to view this page or perform this action"
The creator communicated immediately and he was good when I told him about my problem, apart from everything works super incredible and even for the people of bedrock
The plugin is very good in my opinion is missing something more customs at the time of the entity choose entity or what type of entity will be the piñata is important this will give more customization to the plugin.
The errors that people are present I do not understand why these errors happen to them when I following the config I have not had problems also it is true that missing 1 discord or a way to contact the creator easier than spigot.
I apologize, I missed your message due to a high influx of messages during that time, it seems like you have conflicting plugins that are causing the issues.
Version: 2.60.2
Since 3 Updates thze Pinata isn Spawning why ever no error codes i did a clean re install nothing helped would be nice if its possible to dm you or you have a other way to support
Most likely another plugin stopping the spawn, such as WorldGuard.
Version: 2.60.1
We are in 2023 and there is still no mysql support in the plugin, no multi server support, it says it is compatible with husksync, but I asked him how to do it and he did not answer.
Excellent plugin and support. Tons of customization for the pinata party - a great addition to any server. Support has been super quick and helpful, Hexed responds promptly through DM's or on the discussion threads here on spigot.
? - You mean WorldGuard is blocking the Pinata from spawning, simply just allow plugin spawning in your WorldGuard config, I can't prevent another plugin from doing something.
Version: 2.59.1
Amazing work with this plugin. I have always enjoyed it and all my player base love it as well.
Plugin seems good but no support, cause I cant figure out how to connect my voting sys thats on my network to this since I dont have vote listener on my sub servers only proxy. Maybe add support for voting plugin.
I reply daily to all my messages. You haven't sent me any messages. I'm sad you give PinataParty a bad review for non-plugin issue :( You need to install votifier on sub-servers and setup vote forwarding, check the wiki of NuVotifier.
Version: 2.59.1
It is good! Does what you need it to do, however i am getting an error - could the owner of this recourse send me a DM on here as i do not know how to post and so cant click the 'here' link, thank you!
Overall if you need a pinata party, this is the one to get!
If using WorldGuard, disable block-plugin-spawning in your WorldGuard config.yml
Version: 2.58.1
I have paid for this plugin and cant contact you, the link you have provided to contact does not work. I'm trying to get help. Please provide your customers with a valid link or some method of contact. Great plugin, its just the support issue. 3 stars as the is no current way of contacting the developer.
You most likely have another plugin conflicting with PinataParty or an unusual server setup causing it.
Version: 2.54.1
There are only quite of few plugins which deserve the tag of Must have a plugin and this is one of them. This is a must-have plugin for any type of game mode to have more interaction between players and give them rewards.
Thanks! One of the best reviews I've read so far <3!
Version: 2.53.3
My players love this plugin! everybody loves getting rewards, great incentive for voting. High quality as always from Hex, and never has any issues, and he is super great with answering any questions you have!
That's interesting, you most likely changed something in your config or are you simply using the scale health system depending on the current amount of players online. Thanks for the review!
Version: 2.53.2
IDK where to report an issue, but users can use a boat to make the piñatas not move, everything else it's just fine.
Placeholders aren't working and there's no top monthly voter placeholder. Was looking for a discord, but there is not one for support. Just switched over from VotingPlugin and was satisfied until all of my leaderboards regarding voting no longer worked. Would be really helpful if there was a support discord, or if the link to message the creator for help actually worked.
Placeholders are working as intended, plently of other owners have used the "%pinataparty_votes_total_and_queued%" placeholder to make a leaderboard system with plugins like Leaderheads & ajLeaderboards to make daily, weekly, monthly etc. leaderboards.
Version: 2.48.6
We are in 2022, I think it can't be too difficult to open a discord server and support from there.
I will be glad if you consider this.
You rated 5 stars and turned it into a one star? Having a Discord would not make me reply to you any faster, in fact, it'll just be slower since I'll have to confirm you are a purchaser and who you are etc. I've replied to you multiple times on Spigot and you haven't provided me with the information I asked for to help.
Version: 2.43.2
THE BEST PLUGIN EVER ************************************************************************************
Amazing plugin with much customization. Developer is good too, suggested max-health which was implemented the very next day. Would definitely recommend buying this plugin and other plugins from this developer!
The plugin works but the support is pretty much 0 stars. If possible, I would give -1 stars lol. I have sent a message to the dev on September 4th, and a follow up on September 6th. It is the 28th of September today and still nudda. Don't buy this plugin if you're new to server management as the developer wouldn't be able to help you.
I missed your first message then replied instantly do your second and still haven't got a reply in almost 2 months.
Version: 2.33.1
It's a good plugin, does what it says, works really well. Support from the dev however is non-existent. Says right here on the plugin page to either send them a message or post on the Discussion tab for support, but I've been posting on there for almost a month now and no support has been given to me or other people who have purchased the plugin, so don't expect much in regards to support.
I don't even have a single message/DM from you? I just check multiple pages for your name even going past your purchase date. I reply almost the same day or the next morning to everyone.
Edit: For some reason, Spigot hasn't been sending me notifications for the discussion thread anymore, this is like the 5th time now... Your question was already solved in there by someone else and it was a simple config setting that most likely wasn't in your config since you didn't read the updates to put the new config settings in.
Version: 2.32.2
Hi m8 nice Pinata just 1 more Q: can you tell me where i change last hit to give something nice only to the player who kill the pinata say pinnata killer %player% run command give something to %player% who just kill the pinata not all players
Huh, just press download? Make sure to update any config changes between the version!
Version: 2.30.0
Plugin randomly shutdown server if bstats has response code 404.
I don't know if this is a bad joke or if it makes any logical sense.
https://imgur.com/zzRn0dA
You're over a year out of date. This was removed forever ago.
Edit: To provide full transparency, this was added to mess with the leaked versions of the plugin and has never affected any legit purchaser that I know of, I bought bstats.site and set up a CloudFlare configuration to return a 404 if your user ID or nonce was blacklisted. I removed it a month later since I thought it was pathetic that I cared and should never have added it to my paying users despite not affecting them and it was following the plugins guidelines to my knowledge. Since then, the domain has expired and I removed the webserver but before doing this I double-checked it wouldn't mess with any users still on the super outdated versions, running the same code this day will never shut down any server since it just doesn't connect at all to return a response code.
Version: 2.30.0
Great resource, friendly developer, great event to keep your community interacting with each other
A fantastic feature for any server looking for a unique way to encourage voting. Having PinataParty really pushes the "wow" factor for those new players while combatting issues such as alt accounts abusing voteparties.
Definitely worth the money.
Thanks for the review! Glad someone else sees the alt problem.
Version: 2.16.3
Great plugin it would really be helpful if there was a discord but since there isnt ill ask through here how do i add other commands to run after the vote party happens for the pinata
Excellent. The event on uses basically nothing, on resource consumption. Immediately, I noticed that the resource was small, compact, & optimized. Once my players tried it, they immediately fell in love. Thank you for generating a unique way to initialize a vote party!
Good plugin players are loving it very much. Please add that warmup for Pinatapool spawning so when pinatapool reach there is cooldown with msg. Just add it optional...
Very good plugin works very smoothly without any lag or issues. No bugs or anything. Dev seems active with updates.
I have 2 suggestions if those can be added:-
1. Discord server maybe
2. Adding a warmup for pinatapool pinata spawn, because if the amount for pinata pool is hit and it spawns pinata instant which means few players goes to hit pinta will get most rewards.. So adding a warmup after announcement like 60 seconds for everyone to come to pinataparty location. That will be great.
Thanks and I added /vote in 2.4.0! Hope its what you want.
Version: 2.3.0
Yeah alright, I was definitely skeptical at first since it required so many dependencies, but, it definitely does work really well, especially considering you can execute any command with whichever event (hit or kill). It even safely despawns if a server crashes or restarts, which is a huge plus. The last thing we need is an entity that's invulnerable with a glow changing every 0.25 seconds.
Hope you and your players are enjoying it! Thank you for the review.
Version: 2.3.0
If you need to revitalize your voting intensives, look no further! PinataParty as made voting fun again! Our community absolutely loves it!
Using this plugin since day 1 with Indy, I can honestly say the new developer has done nothing but improve upon this resource! Thank you for keeping our voting process updated, new and exciting! One of the best plugins on Spigot IMO.
Thank you! It means a lot that you say I've been doing good since I become the developer!
Version: 2.2.0
Awesome plugin, with a very detailed config. Author even added comments in the config for 1.12 version of sounds so you don't have to look them up yourself if you don't want to.
Definitly the best vote party plugin out here,
Contain features that no other vote party has. Developer is very friendly and also seems to be very active.
I can only recommend you to buy it and try it by yourself!!
Why spend a huge amount of money on a normal "vote party" plugin when you can have a unique and fun plugin instead.
"PinataParty" works perfectly without any errors and it adds a special touch to your server ;)
Amazing plugin, was my idea and Indyuce made it into an actual plugin and told him to upload it on here because I thought it was just amazing, Enjoy everyone!
I highly recommend this new type of VoteParty since its more interactive and players LOVE IT!
