So I went to go download Bukkit so I can use plugins such as world edit as I'm developing my server to find some sort of lawsuit thing going on? Is there an alternative download to Bukkit, or some other way I can implement plugins such as World Edit on my server?
How do current online servers manage to use plugins while bukkit is down?
The downloads for Bukkit are down, but people downloaded them before Bukkit was shut down. The dev page for Bukkit is still up and you can still download plugins there.
There are some alternatives to Bukkit, such as Sponge or Glowstone, but these are in heavy development at the time. Most plugins and server owners will port over to Sponge when it is released, so I suggest you should to. You can keep using Bukkit until Sponge or Glowstone is released.

EDIT: Apologies if this is in the wrong section
Thanks
