PrivacyLock

** PrivacyLock: Secure Communication for Your Minecraft Server**

PrivacyLock is a lightweight yet powerful plugin designed to enhance privacy and security on your Minecraft server by preventing private messages from appearing in server console logs. When players use commands like /whisper, /msg, or /tell, the default behavior exposes these private conversations in the console, potentially compromising player privacy.

In today's Minecraft servers, player privacy has become increasingly important. Server operators need to balance monitoring for inappropriate behavior while respecting legitimate private conversations. This plugin provides the perfect middle ground - it allows private messaging to remain truly private, while still enabling optional administrative oversight through configurable logging options.

PrivacyLock solves a common issue that many server owners face: how to protect player privacy while maintaining server security. Rather than displaying sensitive messages in console logs that might be viewed by multiple staff members or logged to files, this plugin ensures private communications remain private.

Installation & Setup

Download the plugin JAR file and place it in your server's plugins folder

Restart your server or use /reload (full restart recommended)

The default configuration works out-of-the-box for most servers, blocking common messaging commands from console display.
