Background

The /ban command is an advanced server command that is only used if you are running a Minecraft server. If you are operating a Minecraft server that other players connect to, the /ban command can help manage which players are not allowed to connect the server.

Requirements

To run server commands such as the /ban command, you have to first create a multiplayer server in Minecraft and be the operator of that server.
