Player Commands:

  • /tell

    • Sends a message that only playername sees. It will appear in the chat window in grey in the form of "yourname whispers message." NOTICE: Admins can see what you type.

  • /me

    • Similar to the /emote or /action, and the same as the /me commands in IRC clients, the /me command sends a narrative message to the other players in the form of "* Yourname actiontext" (e.g., "* Yourname sneezes.").

  • /kill

    • Inflicts 1000 ( × 500) damage to the user, killing them. Useful when lost, stuck or to restore health and hunger (assuming you can get your items back easily). This does not work in Creative mode. (Does work in creative mode in update 12w16a)

    Operator-only commands:

    /ban
    Blacklists the name playername from the server so that they can no longer connect. Note: Bans supersede any whitelisting in place.

    /ban-ip
    Blacklists an IP address so that all subsequent connections from it are rejected.

    /banlist [ips]
    Displays the banlist. To display banned IP addresses, use the command banlist ips

    /deop
    Revokes a player's operator status.

    /gamemode
    0/1
    Changes the game mode for playername to Survival (0) mode, Creative (1) mode. Remember, this will only affect playername and no one else. Note: Player must currently be online for the command to work. In snapshot 12w16a, the command must be entered as "gamemode 1/0
    "

    /give
    [amount] [damage-value]
    Spawns amount (defaults to 1) of the item defined by data-value with the specified damage value (defaults to 0) at playername 's location. For example typing /give John 4 30 will give a player called John 30 blocks of normal cobblestone non-smelted

    /help OR ?
    Shows a list of available server commands. Note: banlist, whitelist, toggledownfall, xp, tell, me, and kill commands are not listed.

    kick
    Forcibly disconnects playername from the server.

    /list
    Shows the names of all currently-connected players (the same can be achieved when pressing tab)

    /op
    Grants playername operator status on the server.

    /pardon
    Removes playername from the blacklist, allowing them to connect again.

    /pardon-ip
    Removes ip-address from the IP blacklist, allowing players from that IP address to connect to the server.

    /save-all
    Forces the server to write all pending changes to the world to disk.

    /save-off
    Disables the server writing to the world files. All changes will temporarily be queued.

    /save-on
    Enables the server writing to the world files. This is the default behavior.

    /say
    Broadcasts message to all players on the server (in bright pink letters)

    /stop
    Gracefully shuts down the server.

    /time
    Set or increment (add to) the world time. number is an integer between 0 and 24000, inclusive, where 0 is dawn, 6000 midday, 12000 dusk and 18000 midnight (i.e. the clock is bisected; left side is night, right side is day). Note: You can also subtract from the current time by using the 'add X' modifier, by using a negative value (i.e. 'time add -6000' would change midnight to dusk)

    /toggledownfall
    Toggles rain and snow.

    /tp

    Teleports player playername to targetplayer 's location

    /whitelist
    Adds or removes playername from the whitelist.

    /whitelist
    Displays all players in the whitelist.

    /whitelist
    Enables/disables the server's use of a whitelist. Note: Server ops will always be able to connect when the whitelist is active, even if their names do not appear in the whitelist.

    /whitelist reload
    Reloads the list of playernames in white-list.txt from disk (used when white-list.txt has been modified outside of Minecraft).

    /xp
    Gives the specified user the given number of orbs. Maximum is 5000 per command. Negative amounts may be used to remove experience progress, but not actual levels
