Private Messaging Enhancements for Fabric Servers

Private Messages Mod for Minecraft (Fabric)

Private Messages is a mod specifically designed for Minecraft to improve the in-game communication by offering features such as private messaging, message replies, the ability to ignore players, and customizable notifications. This mod enables players to send direct messages to one another, respond to their last received message, and maintain their privacy by managing an ignore list.

Mod Features

Direct Messaging: Utilize commands such as /pm, /m, /t, /msg, and /tell to send private messages to fellow players.
Quick Reply: Instantly respond to the most recent private message you received by typing /reply or its shorthand /r.
Click-to-Reply Functionality: You can also reply to a message by simply clicking on it! This action will automatically populate the reply command along with the sender’s name.
Block Specific Players: Use the /ignore command to prevent messages from designated players.
Customizable Notifications: Adjust your notification preferences for private messages with the command /private-messages notification [on|off].
Help Command: Access a comprehensive list of commands and their usages with /private-messages help.
Adjustable Settings: Modify message formats, notification preferences, and other settings through the configuration file.

Command List

/pm: Dispatch a private message to another user.
/t: Alias for sending a private message (equivalent to /pm).
/msg: Another alias for sending a private message (also /pm).
/w: Yet another alias for /pm.
/reply: Respond to the last received private message.
/r: Short-hand for /reply.
/ignore: Activate or deactivate the ignore function for a player so you no longer receive their private messages.
