The Integrated Legacy Minecraft Ban System (LMBS), formerly Johny Bans (JBans), is a centralized, cross-server ban system for Minecraft servers runnning on legacy versions.
Its primary interface, the Legacy Minecraft Ban Database (LMBD; https://bans.johnymuffin.com) is a public list of banned players on servers using the LMBS. Players banned on one server using the LMBS can't join others using it.

Commands

  • /jban <username> (reason) (duration) - Ban a username on the LMBS.
  • /junban <username> - Unban a username on the LMBS - this will pardon any and all bans a specified username has across servers.
  • /jbcode - Recive the authentication code for the LMBD.
  • /mbexceptions - Manage server-specific ban exceptions.

Ban modification

Ban modification modal.

Only staff members of servers participating in the LMBS can modify bans.
They need to run /jbcode to get an authentication code to login.
After authentication, they can modify the information (reason, pardon, expiry) on the bans they themselves have issued, but not bans someone else has issued.

Evidence submission

Evidence submission & deletion UI modals.

Evidence is required for bans to take place cross-server.
Authentication is also required to upload evidence, however, evidence can be uploaded onto bans issued by other staff members on other servers, but evidence deletion can only be done by the ban issuer.

Ban appeal methods

A player needs to contact the server that banned them to appeal their ban.
They can also contact other servers for a server-specific exception.
Should that server be currently offline, they can request other servers using the LMBD to unban them.
For RetroMC, evidence is required for a ban to be valid; see RetroMC Staff Policy Manual#2. Documentation of Ban Evidence.
