Authority Admin has no write-up on Specifiction yet; its figures are above.

PunishmentSystem is a free, open-source Minecraft server plugin for administering player discipline through a graphical interface. It supports bans, temporary bans, mutes, kicks, and unbans, while maintaining searchable punishment histories with pagination, filters, and export options. Release 1.1.0 lists a database, case and points systems, a case-lookup plugin, and an API. Discord notifications can include the punishment type, reason, staff member, duration, timestamp, player details, and server name. Ban-evasion detection tracks IP addresses, compares banned players with new joiners, alerts staff with the required permission, and records suspected attempts. The README lists EssentialsX integration and support for Paper, Spigot, and Folia servers running Minecraft 1.21 or later with Java 11 or later. Bedrock Edition players can use a configurable prefix. The project says punishment data uses AES-256 encryption, secure key handling, tamper protection, and automatic backups. It is self-hosted and licensed under GPL v3.
