Minecraft Chat Reporting Features will be Available Mojang Says Mojang

Minecraft's moderation and chat reporting features were initially launched last month, but quickly saw community feedback decrying them for being unsuitable for the job. Despite some level-headed criticism and arguments being thrown against the tools, Mojang has said they'll stick with the tools as they are.

MojangMeesh (the community manager on Reddit) posted a post explaining his decision. "We respect and appreciate all feedback, however it doesn't mean that feedback will ever alter the principles of design Mojang Studios follows - this includes the upcoming reporting system." The second paragraph of the post states that players have been making comments on complaints submitted by Mojang employees. Harassment is a concern, which ironically is the point of the reporting tools in the first place.

A lot of players, in response this post, have stated that they don't feel that they're being listened to. They consider every Minecraft server as a safe space and shouldn't be controlled. These features can be removed from your server by using Spigot or CurseForge mods.

If there aren't any complaints or discussions about the features, it's understandable that players might feel frustrated. A lot of people have more than a decade of experience in this game and as adults, they think that they shouldn't have to be watched over. It is important to remember that Minecraft is a game that has many young players. Therefore it is essential to have safety features in place to protect them. However, it's not clear that anything will change anytime soon.

Have you seen the Spongebob Squarepants DLC, which is an Minecraft news item, but definitely more kid-oriented? It's a great opportunity to wander around Bikini Bottom and enjoy some grade-A nostalgia. MINECRAFTSERVERS.WEBSITE
