Minecraft plugin LiteBans

🔌 About LiteBans

LiteBans — is a Minecraft server plugin that provides centralized punishment management and moderation tools for Spigot/Paper networks.

🎯 Purpose

LiteBans addresses cross‑server punishment management: keeping bans, mutes, warnings and punishment history in a shared database and allowing operators to show a public punishment web page. LiteBans is intended for servers and networks that need consistent, auditable moderation across backend servers and proxies.

⚙ Main confirmed capabilities

Based on official / authoritative setup & documentation sources, LiteBans (confirmed) provides:

• Centralized punishment storage suitable for multi‑server networks (Spigot/Paper with proxy support such as Bungee/Velocity).
• Support for persistent databases (MySQL) and local databases (SQLite) for punishment data and history.
• Optional web‑style punishment UI / public punishment website (themes exist for the web UI).

Confirmed sources note LiteBans as a punishment database and web UI capable plugin used on Spigot/Paper and proxy setups.

🧩 Who it fits

LiteBans is suitable for:

• Medium and large Survival networks requiring synchronized bans/mutes across servers.
• Networks using a proxy (Bungee/Waterfall/Velocity) that need a single punishment database.
• Admin teams that want a public or internal web view of punishment history.

🏗 Usage examples

• Use LiteBans to store all bans and mutes centrally in MySQL so bans apply across all backend servers.
• Host a LiteBans web UI to let staff or the public lookup punishment history by player UUID or name.
• Run LiteBans on Paper backends and install the plugin on the proxy (Bungee/Velocity) where applicable for network‑wide enforcement.
