Moderation & staff-ops platform for Minecraft networks
BetterWarden is a full moderation and staff-ops platform for Minecraft servers and networks. It ships an embedded Spring Boot core that gives every server its own database, its own setup wizard and its own web admin panel — no external services or extra plugins required to get started.
It runs standalone on a single server, or in networked mode where a proxy hosts the shared core and every backend server talks to it over the wire, so the whole network shares one database, one panel and one set of staff accounts. Global punishments (/gban, /gmute, /gkick) issue directly through the proxy and apply regardless of which backend a player is connected to.
Everything is backed by the same data whether staff act in-game, in the web panel, or through the Discord bot — a ban issued from a Discord slash command shows up in the same punishment history as one issued with /ban in-game.
Ban, mute, kick and warn — with silent variants, temporary durations, IP bans, reusable punishment templates ("#griefing"-style shorthand) and per-group escalation ladders that automatically ramp up punishments for repeat offenders.
In-game GUI menus for player lookup and punishment history: active punishment counts, staff notes, known alt accounts, and one-click warn/mute/ban with a reason picker instead of typing the full command.
Players can file reports and open support tickets with no permission needed. Staff work the queue from an in-game GUI or the web panel — claim, teleport to where a report was filed, view the chat snapshot captured at submission, reply, add internal notes, and close.
A panel-based appeal workflow so punished players have a route back that does not go through a Discord DM to an admin.
Reachable at your server's own address, no separate service to host. Punishment browser, player profiles, reports, tickets and appeals, staff stats, and role-based staff accounts (Owner / Admin / Moderator / Viewer) — all with a one-time setup code on first boot instead of a default password.
Runs on your own bot token inside the same core — moderation slash commands (/ban /unban /mute /unmute /kick /warn /history /lookup /note) that mirror the in-game commands exactly, a live punishment-log feed posted to a channel of your choice, and a weekly staff-activity digest.
Configurable blocked-word list with plain words or full regex rules, enforced before chat is broadcast.
One proxy in "host" mode owns the shared core; any number of backend servers switch to "client" mode and talk to it over the network, so the whole network runs off one database and one panel instead of one per server.
