What Is a Ban?
A ban is a way for you and your Minecraft Server operators to prevent unwanted players from joining. Minecraft includes two commands to ban a player, “/ban” and “/ban-ip”. The first is used to ban the player’s account, and one is used to ban both the account and his IP. Minecraft also includes two commands to unban a player, “/paradon” and “/paradon-ip”. The first is used to unban a player who was banned by the “/ban” command and the second is for a player that was banned by the “/ban-ip” command.
