Good plugin for permissions?

Pex does get a little over complicated. There isn't too much of a difference between these permissions plugin

I recommend downloading Essentials plugin which includes group manager. I don't know the reason Pex is not good for your server, but i can say that it is the very best permissions plugin out there, it is fairly easy to use and it doesn't require as much manual work as group manager.

No it does not. Group manager is a separate plugin

Every time i download Essentials the group manager comes with it. Maybe it is different nowadays, i can't really tell since i haven't worked with plugins for like 3 years now lol. But anyways i find Pex more comfortable than group manager

Don't ever think it ever came with it. I don't even think it even came with the zip file of essentials. Group manager was always seperate from all the other essentials plugins

It was never like that. Essentials and group manager have always been separate. Only things like 2013. Essentials anti-build, protect, spawn etc were in the zip.

I've used essentials since 2012

I recommend downloading Essentials plugin which includes group manager

This is wrong. Group manager is a separate plugin

I know its made by the same team, read what he wrote.

I've heard guys talking about a new plugin "bPermissions"
