WORLDGUARD-3194 - Reported by kiammcquaid
I have plugins that dont work because of worldguard 6, and I now need to downgrade to fix the issue

Because I might give someone a Python script to convert the region files.
The configuration files are backwards compatible. What's not backwards incompatible is the region data, but all that needs to be done is to convert all the UUIDs back to names, which is a simple script.
The MySQL region tables were also changed in 6 but I am not sure the changes are backwards incompatible.
However, if you saved a backup of your region data (which you should have), you can just downgrade and restore the old data.

Here's a program to downgrade the .yml file for anyone that needs it: https://github.com/sk89q/Six2Five/releases/tag/release-1.0

The bukkit page said not to downgrade and if I needed to, to make a ticket

You need to install WorldGuard 5.9 and restore your WorldGuard 5.9 folder backup.
When it says "It is NOT POSSIBLE TO DOWNGRADE" it means WorldGuard will not convert your region and configuration files back automatically. You have to do that manually. Obviously, any changes during this period will be lost.
