Silent Admin Join is a lightweight Minecraft plugin that lets admins join the server without triggering public join messages. It’s perfect for stealth moderation, surprise appearances, or keeping your entrance quietly mythic. When a player with the silentjoin.use permission joins, their entry is hidden from chat. Optionally, they can receive a subtle sound effect and particle burst to confirm their silent arrival. All effects are configurable via config.yml. Example behavior: An admin joins—no message appears in chat. They hear a soft teleport sound and see a brief particle shimmer. Regular players still join with normal messages. Features include:
- Suppressed join messages for selected players
- Optional sound and particle effects
- Configurable effect types and toggles
- Lightweight and compatible with most permission systems Built for Paper 1.20.1+ and Java 17+. Just drop the jar into your plugins folder, restart, and assign the permission. MIT licensed—fork it, remix it, and vanish in style.
