This guide helps moderators to do their job.

As a mod, you are responsible for making sure the server rules are followed. You are also expected to guide new players and be helpful and friendly in general. And always, please assume good faith. Most people want to be nice.

Checking grief alerts

If you want to hide yourself before checking, do /vanish. That makes you invisible and allows flying.

When you see an unclear alert use /co teleport <x> <y> <z> to teleport there. Then use /co inspect to check it (left click tells about the block you're looking at and right-click tells about the block next to it or container transactions). Finally, use /co-back to return.

/tpo <player> can be also used for teleport.

Advanced lookup & rollbacks

You can also view the logs using /co lookup <params>

Lookup parameters
Parameter Description Example Required
User (u) Player Ardakaz Yes
Time (t) Time range 10h Yes
Radius (r) Block range 20 No (defaults to 10)
Action (a) Action type container No
Block (b) Block/item type diamond_ore No

The rollback command is /co rollback <params>. The parameters are same as above.

Other useful tools

Invsee

Stolen items can be removed or checked with /invsee <player> or /endersee <player> (enderchest). If a rollback is already done, those items can be removed with /disposal.

Interrogation room

If someone doesn't answer when you ask about grief, you can use /jail <player> <jail> to prevent them for playing before they answer.

After they answer you can use /jail <player> to unjail.

Punishing rule breakers

For minor infractions, you can use /warn <player> <reason> (/warnings <player> can be used to see them).

If the player continues rule breaking or does major grief, you can use /ban <player> <reason> to ban them.

Ban evaders

You can use /alts <player> to check if players are logged from a same IP. Then you can see if someone is ban evading that way. If that continues, use /banip <player> <reason> to ban all players from that address.

Checking the alert list

The following symbols are used to mark alerts on discord. Moderators should regularly check and mark the list to avoid backlog piling up.

✅ Checked and complete. No need to scroll up any further. Use when everything above has been cleared.

❗ Use when something is clearly against the rules but you can’t fix ingame right now.

❓ Use when something is probably against the rules but you can’t check ingame right now.

🔄 Use when rollback has been done, warnings/bans given and issue solved.

☑️ May be used on something that has been confirmed no problem but all issues above have not been solved.
