    You need to use MessageRequests and MessageEventListeners to accomplish this.

    well, the thing is, what I want (and shaw was speaking in my name) is when a player joins any connected server, so a playerjoinevent, it sends the joined player name to the hub server, which then sends an updated player list to all the connected servers. Is this possible?

    It's definitely possible, but this isn't the most desirable approach at all in my opinion.

    Have the servers use messages to broadcast their players every 5 seconds, and then on recipient cache it. Simple.

    There are already plugins that do this, for example LilySigns.
