Partial name matching
All commands referencing names, such as /msg and /ban, can use partial name matching.
For instance, it is possible to private message a player named SlowRiot by any of the following methods:
- /msg SlowRiot Hello!
- /msg slow Hello!
- /msg riot Hello!
A user with the name L33tH4x0r13370mgPwnZ0r3d could be banned simply with:
- /ban l3 (assuming no other player with the letters "l3" in their name is online)
Limitations
Partial name matching can only be used for players who are online. Attempting to ban with a partial name match after the player has left will result in an erroneous ban created for the subset of letters given. Therefore it is generally wiser to type player names in full when banning.
