Minecraft: Java Edition’s latest update introduced a new player reporting tool, which allows players to submit “inappropriate chat messages or dangerous behaviour” for moderators to review. That seems like a good thing on the its face, but many Minecraft players aren’t happy that it extends to private servers.
Naturally, because this is Minecraft, players have changed what they don’t like. There are now mods which strip messages of information tieing them to your player profile.
These mods are, of course, used at your own risk. They work both client and server-side, but if you install them client-side, other people’s servers can exclude you from joining if they choose to enforce secure profiles. Which is fair enough, and means you shouldn’t be able to use these mods to go trolling people who want the protections moderation can provide.
Mojang addressed player feedback after the update entered testing. “We recognize that private servers function independently from Mojang Studios, and many use that independence to create remarkable Minecraft innovations that enrich the community,” they wroteon the Minecraft site. “But it has always been the case that Minecraft servers of any scale must follow the rules described in the EULA, the Commercial Usage Guidelines, and our Community Standards. Every player should enjoy a safe Minecraft experience wherever they choose to play.”
