Solved Help, Multiple Instances of One BukkitTask?

So i'm making a custom mute plugin, and my tempmute function is a bit jacked up. So I can only have one person muted at a time or else the timers interfere and everything gets messed up. Here's a part of my code:

Code:java

                    if(!muted.contains(target.getName())){
                        muted.add(p.getName());
                        int num = Integer.parseInt(args[1]);
                        p.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN + "You have muted " + target.getName() + " for " + num + " Seconds.");
                        target.sendMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + "You have been Softmuted for " + num + " Seconds.");
                        Bukkit.getServer().getScheduler().runTaskLater(this, new BukkitRunnable(){
                            public void run(){
                                if(muted.contains(target.getName())){
                                    muted.remove(target.getName());
                                    target.sendMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + " You are no longer Softmuted.");
                                }
 
 
 
                            }
                        }, num*20);
 
                        return true;

How could I set it up so everyone has an individual timer counting down their on mute times?

 

just when an op/admin etc types that command in, do:

Code:java

 
 
//under the command checks
new Mute(target, num);
 
//then make a new class, so when this fires, it makes a new instance
 
public Mute(Player target, int num) {
//put your runnable here
}
 

This should work, i use similar things in my listener class

 

Could you put that into context with my example? Sorry, i'm new to this realm of coding.

1: Make a global timer that runs every x seconds. (recommend every 60 seconds)
2: Use a hashmap to store <String, Date>
3: In the global timer, check if the player's name is in the hashmap.
4: If it is, then check if the current date is equal to the date in the hashmap.
5: When you do a mute command, add the mute time to the current date, and store it to the hashmap.
6: If the date is equal to the current date, then remove his name from the hashmap.
7: Monitor chat events, and cancel it if their name is in the hashmap.

Im_Zeus I used your concept of Hashmaps and Dates and now I have it working! Thanks a bunch!
