Implement PlayerItemDamageEvent. @Sleaker @Kainzo - if you could kindly tell me why you add code to prevent Heroes from running on a **now supported** platform, I would love to know, maybe we can resolve this once and for all. Unless of course it is simply part of your plan to make people use your rise against CraftBukkit fork with only 1 tiny feature which can and will be replicated in a plugin if need be.
