😞 no Multiverse Portal it's bad! 👎

So I disabled Multiverse portals and the console error goes away and stuff, but I need Multiverse Portals for the server, is there any way to get both of them running side by side?

You need to see if there is a fixed version available. Unfortunately because this issue is in Multiverse I can't help you.

Object construction should only be happening at startup (via java.reflect),
and only once. The error message means, basically, that the plugin is
already loaded.

Are you using /reload to test your prefixes? You should be stopping and
starting the server to test plugin changes.
