About this Mod

AdminGuard

A server-side Forge mod that prevents admin abuse by blocking dangerous commands. No client mod required.

Features

Blocks abusable commands — /give, /gamemode, /op, /fill, /tp, /execute, /time, /weather, and 40+ more
Blocks WorldEdit commands — All // commands and single-slash WorldEdit variants (/brush, /schematic, etc.)
Bypass prevention — Namespace tricks like /minecraft:give are caught automatically
Custom /help — Shows [BLOCKED] in red next to disabled commands, with pagination
Logging — Every blocked attempt is logged with player name, command, and timestamp
Fully configurable — Edit adminguard.toml to add or remove commands from the blocklist
Server-side only — Players don't need to install anything

Configuration

On first run, adminguard.toml is generated in your config folder:

    blockedCommands = ["give", "gamemode", "op", ...]

Frequently Asked Questions

AdminGuard server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.16.5). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is AdminGuard compatible with forge?

AdminGuard officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.16.5. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with AdminGuard – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if AdminGuard consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
