ModGUI vs ReportsGUI

ModGUI is a self-hosted moderation plugin for Paper servers, with graphical tools for player punishments, investigations, and reports. Server staff can configure punishment types, icons, permissions, console commands, and durations; punishment actions can work with LiteBans, AdvancedBan, EssentialsX, and other punishment plugins. Its investigate screen can display a player’s current-session anticheat flags through optional GrimAC integration. Staff can attach notes to players, and players can submit reports with /report and optional severity levels. Discord webhooks can send punishment logs, anticheat alerts, reports, and staff notes, with optional role pings. A recovery compass opens the investigate GUI when right-clicked. Configuration covers GUI borders, messages, webhook URLs, GrimAC thresholds, ignored checks, and report cooldowns. ModGUI requires Paper 1.21.11 or newer; GrimAC is needed for anticheat flag tracking. Installation involves adding the JAR to the server’s plugins folder, restarting, configuring files, and running /modgui reload. It is free under the MIT License.

ReportsGUI is a self-hosted Minecraft plugin for handling player reports and administering punishments. Staff can report, kick, ban, warn, mute or freeze players. The /reports command shows up to 54 unhandled reports, while /profile displays player information and lets staff issue punishments even without an active report. Team chat is available through /teamchat: logged-in staff can send staff-only messages using @tc or @teamchat. Staff must be logged into Teamchat to receive report and warning notifications and to manage reports and punishments. The listing identifies Minecraft 1.17 as the plugin’s native major version and provides a 422.5 KB JAR download. It says other languages can be used if users translate them themselves. A public GitHub repository is linked, with an invitation to fork, download and edit the project with credit to the author. ReportsGUI costs nothing. Its configuration has a specific limit: adding more than 27 report reasons will cause the plugin to break.
