Messages

The Messages tab lets you customise every player-facing text that Infinity-Filter sends — the MOTD when your backend is offline, the kick screens for mitigation and filtering, the antibot challenge prompt.

Where to find it

Open Network → Settings → Message.

The page has a horizontal sub-nav: General (default), Mitigation, Filtering, Anti-Bot, Offline.

General

Holds the global defaults — the messages Infinity-Filter uses when no more specific category applies.

Mitigation

The kick message shown to non-whitelisted players when Under Attack mode is on. Typical content:

“The server is under attack. Only whitelisted players can connect right now — try again later.”

Setting context: see Mitigation.

Filtering

The kick message shown when a connection is rejected by:

• Country filtering
• ASN filtering
• Anti-VPN
• Per-IP whitelist mode (when active but the IP isn’t whitelisted)

Typical content:

“Your IP is not allowed to connect. If you think this is a mistake, contact us on Discord: discord.example.com”

Anti-Bot

The message shown when the antibot rejects a connection (typically the please rejoin prompt for Default mode, or the please complete the challenge prompt for Hardcore mode).

Typical content:

“Please rejoin to verify you’re not a bot.”

Offline (MOTD)

The MOTD shown to players pinging the server when your backend is unreachable. Activate from Settings → General → Offline MOTD.

Useful content:

• Maintenance window: “Server is down for maintenance — back at 18:00 CET.”
• Wipe notice: “Wipe in progress. Server reopens at the announced time.”
• Permanent message: “Look up our Discord at discord.example.com for status updates.”

The MOTD supports Minecraft colour codes (e.g. &a for green, &l for bold). The preview in the panel shows how it renders in the client’s server list.

Colour codes

Most messages support legacy &-prefixed Minecraft colour codes. Common ones:

Code	Color
&0	Black
&a	Light green
&c	Red
&e	Yellow
&f	White
&l	Bold (modifier)
&n	Underline (modifier)
&o	Italic (modifier)
&r	Reset

Multi-line MOTDs

The MOTD field accepts \n for a line break, matching the two-line layout players see in the server list.
