# HiRewards<\/p>\n
HiRewards is a lightweight plugin that gives custom rewards when players greet a joining player with things like “welcome” or “hello!” The plugin aims to build a strong community by encouraging your player base to greet both new and returning players. The plugin is designed as a very supplementary and unintrusive cousin of the various “chat games” plugins out there.<\/p>\n
## Features
\n– Custom rewards (compatible with any economy plugin)
\n– Different rewards for greeting new players & greeting returning players
\n– Custom trigger words (**supports regex**)
\n– Custom response window intervals
\n– Custom cooldown intervals
\n– Anti-exploit system<\/p>\n
A Fabric port of this plugin is not planned.<\/p>\n “`yaml # Greeting Window # Rewards # Reward Cooldown — Special thanks to AmberW (for Emojis in Icon Art)<\/p>\n This plugin is protected under the CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 license.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Rewards your players for greeting players who join your server!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":81265,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"hirewards","_minecraft_project_id":"gZL7oWoz","_minecraft_author":"riso","_minecraft_license":"CC-BY-NC-SA-4.0","_minecraft_downloads":292,"_minecraft_follows":7,"_minecraft_client_side":"unsupported","_minecraft_server_side":"required","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"hirewards.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":51318333,"_minecraft_version_count":4,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-16T11:49:03.594521Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2024-12-06T07:31:00.678118Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2026-03-13T04:10:54.694622Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/hirewards","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":81265,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-04T16:13:16+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"571bc33b76fe2e479d1e96b09bd74b57","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[844,866,127,867,129],"mod_loader":[132,134],"minecraft_version":[62,37,40,41,73,74,38,78,79,80,81,82],"class_list":["post-81264","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-economy","mod_category-minigame","mod_category-paper","mod_category-social","mod_category-spigot","mod_loader-paper","mod_loader-spigot","minecraft_version-1-21","minecraft_version-1-21-1","minecraft_version-1-21-10","minecraft_version-1-21-11","minecraft_version-1-21-2","minecraft_version-1-21-3","minecraft_version-1-21-4","minecraft_version-1-21-5","minecraft_version-1-21-6","minecraft_version-1-21-7","minecraft_version-1-21-8","minecraft_version-1-21-9"],"yoast_head":"\nconfig.yml<\/summary>\n
