Please read carefully this update note!

After months of work I finally managed to release the new 2.0 version you've been waiting for. Hopefully there won't be many bugs, though there will be some for sure so please report them to me first before posting any negative reviews.

Changelog:
- Huge performance increase (database queries amount was reduced by at least 70% compared to the older versions), it will be clearly visible on servers with higher amount of gangs
- Gang ranks are now 100% customizable (including their in-gang permissions)
- Arena configuration was made much more user-friendly (now you can setup arenas using only commands, without any configs etc) - see more in "arena configuration" in the plugin description
- Rewritten lang file (now you won't have to update it manually with future updates)
- Added assists to gang/players statistics
- It's possible to promote/demote/uninvite offline players

These are just the most noticeable changes, to be honest I can't actually recall all of the small bugfixes/changes I made over those few months. In general, the code quality and performance has increased a lot what will result in both better performance and more often updates. I have already added some features to the to-do list which will be added in the nearest future, don't hesitate to contact me if you want me to add anything else.

Updating from previous versions:
This version isn't compatible with any previous version, what means you can't just update to it. It basically means that you have to edit all configs once again (config.yml and lang.yml formats were changed, arenas.yml was removed), reset the database (its schema was changed as well) etc.
The update process is pretty simple:

1. (optional) Make a backup of old config files so you will know what to edit in the new ones
2. Delete the entire GangsPlus folder
3. Upload the new jar, start the server, edit configs according to your preferences

All necessary information (general configuration, fight arenas configuration, commands, permissions etc) can be found in the plugin description, please don't use the wiki as it still refers to the old version (it will be updated in 1-2 weeks).

Other plugins depending on Gangs+ (like DeluxeChat or Featherboard) may not work with the new version until their autors update them as the API has been changed.

Don't hesitate to contact me in case of any issues with updating/performance.
