The player, ban and operator tools are separate views. Available actions depend on your permissions and the server software.
Step by step
- Open the appropriate tool and select a listed player or enter the exact username.
- Use Kick to disconnect a player without a permanent ban.
- For a ban, review the reason and any supported expiry field; existing entries can be edited or removed.
- Add or remove operator status only for trusted administrators.
Check the result
Refresh the list and inspect the console response. Plugin-managed punishments may use their own storage and commands instead of the vanilla lists.
Important
Operator privileges are powerful. A server operator is not the same as a hosting account administrator.
