Our verdict on FatsanPerms

FatsanPerms is an open-source Minecraft permissions plugin for Paper 1.21.11 and Folia 1.21.11 servers. It is aimed at survival, SMP, and network-style environments that need more than simple allow-or-deny rules. Administrators can assign direct user permissions, create weighted groups with inheritance, set default and primary groups, and apply positive, negative, or world-scoped permission nodes. Prefixes, suffixes, roles, and custom metadata extend its usefulness for servers that coordinate permissions with chat and display systems.

Its strongest area is permission depth. Temporary permissions and group memberships can expire, while live permission application updates online players. That combination suits servers with rotating roles, time-limited access, or world-specific rules. Vault permission and Vault Chat integration connect the plugin with compatible server systems, and PlaceholderAPI placeholders can expose permission-related values to other tools. Integrations with TAB, scoreboards, and chat formatting plugins further support presentation layers without changing the core permission model.

FatsanPerms is free and open source, with YAML-based local storage for group and user data. That keeps the deployment centered on the server rather than a hosted administration service. The main boundary is platform coverage: it is positioned for Paper and Folia at version 1.21.11, so servers running other platforms should choose a permissions plugin with broader compatibility. It is a strong fit for administrators who want inheritance, temporary assignments, metadata, and live application in one plugin. Servers seeking hosted management or a browser-based editor should look elsewhere.
