Our verdict on Moderation
Moderation is a free Minecraft server moderation Skript for server staff. It brings core player-management commands into one package, including bans with optional time spans, mutes, jails, freezes, kicks and warnings. Staff can also inspect inventories with /invsee, spy on commands and manage player reports. It is aimed at Minecraft servers that need basic moderation workflows without a paid plan.
Reporting is the product’s clearest workflow feature. Staff can create player reports, assign them, close them and record resolutions. Per-player moderation history adds a separate record of disciplinary actions, with support for clearing that history. Together, these tools give staff a way to review both open report activity and past moderation actions. Configurable commands, permissions and messages provide control over how the system is presented and administered.
Setup is focused but dependent on the Skript plugin. The product has no other dependencies or addons, while its listed integration is Skript. Its scope suits servers that want configurable commands and core punishments, but it is not a chat-filtering tool, and its ecosystem fit is narrow. Choose Moderation for free bans, reports, histories and staff inspection on a Skript-based Minecraft server. Servers requiring chat filters or broader platform integrations should look for a more specialized option.
