Silent Punishments

Normally, when you punish or unpunish a player, two messages are sent:

1. A message to the player running the command, telling them it was successful
2. A message to all other players with a certain permission, telling them a player was punished or unpunished.

This second message is called the notification message. It is usually sent to staff members.

Silent Messages

The -s option allows punishing or unpunishing a player silently. A silent message does not show the notification message.

For example:

• ban -s A248 You are banned
• ban A248 30d -s Banned for 30 days
• unban A248 -s

As shown in these examples, -s can come anywhere before the punishment reason.

Controlling the Silent Feature

• Only players with the permission libertybans.<type>.silent or libertybans.<type>.silentundo can use the silent feature.
• Staff members with the permission libertybans.<type>.notifysilent or libertybans.<type>.unnotifysilent will always see notification messages, regardless of whether -s was used. where <type> is the punishment type like 'ban' or 'mute'

See the Permissions page for more information.
