The title says exactly what im trying to do. I have looked everywhere and i cant seem to figure it out. I understand that there is forge and many other programs used for modding. However it seems that all solutions involve my friends having to download the same software. I have joined and seen servers out there that have mods on the server however they dont require you to download the same to be able to join you simply join and the mod works. how do i do the same?
A detailed description would be preferred and i prefer text tutorials over video. Also please no saying im looking for a handout as i have already tried looking for a solution and all ifind is stuff about forge and having my friends download the same. I wish to prevent having to have my friends download the same.
There is no way to add things like new items, blocks, mobs, etc, for servers without the client installing the mod as well, so if you don't want your friends to have to install the mods, you need to use plugins.

I bought and started playing Minecraft on March 22nd, 2012, during 1.2.3.
Yeah im looking to keep it vanilla but i need things like world edit and single player commands so i have the commands available to do things like a safe zone and such. Its more i am extremely limited as to how to do these things and cant do them in more simpler less laggy ways. Thank you TheGlobefish for your prompt response
also what is a plugin? sorryif it sounds like a newb question butyes i am a newb to this XD
You need to set up a Spigot server. There's a text tutorial here. After that, you can download the WorldEdit and Essentials (you'll want Essentials-2.x-SNAPSHOT.jar) plugins and place the jar files into your plugins folder. Essentials is similar to SPC.
TheGlobeFish you have been a tremendous help thank you very much. As of now i would say my thread is resolved if i need further help it will most likely do with another subject so i will post a new thread on that said subject. Until then thank you everyone
