Greeter Bro Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I turn on the Greeter Bro Mod?
The mod activates automatically once installed. Use /greeterbro to access the main command menu and configure your greeting settings.
What's the %player% placeholder and how do I use it?
The %player% placeholder gets replaced with the exact username of whoever just joined. For example, typing "Welcome %player% to our server!" will show "Welcome Steve to our server!" when Steve logs in.
Can I set different greetings for new players vs returning players?
Yes. The mod detects first-time joiners and lets you configure a separate custom greeting for them. Returning players will receive your standard greeting instead.
How do I stop greeting specific players?
Use the blacklist system through the /greeterbro command menu to add player names you want to ignore. Blacklisted players will join silently without triggering any greeting.
Why do my greetings feel spammy or unnatural?
Enable the random delay feature in your settings—it adds a natural pause between when someone logs in and when the greeting appears, making it feel less robotic.
Does the mod keep greeting people when I'm AFK?
No. The mod automatically detects when you switch to AFK mode and stops sending greetings until you return, preventing spam while you're away.
Will this mod work with chat plugins that style or format messages?
Yes, the mod is designed to work with styled chat plugins and custom response setups, so your greetings will integrate smoothly with your server's chat system.
What happens if a player changes their username?
The mod detects username changes and treats returning players with new names as the same person, so they'll still get your returning player greeting instead of a first-time one.
Can I use the mod on single-player worlds?
The mod is designed for multiplayer servers where multiple players log in and out. It won't have much effect in single-player since you're the only one joining.
Does Greeter Bro Mod cause lag or performance issues?
No. The mod runs lightweight background checks on login events and only sends a single chat message, so it has minimal impact on server performance.
