Apply and reverse a targeted Plasmo Voice moderation mute

Applies to: Plasmo Voice; match the linked maintainer documentation to your installed platform and release.
Documentation checked .

A moderation mute should affect the intended player and remain reversible. Separate that action from a broken microphone or a server-wide audio fault so the player and other moderators understand why speech stopped.

Prepare the test

Record client and server major versions before comparing results. Keep the Minecraft connection, voice handshake and UDP audio path separate when deciding which setting or log to inspect next.

Make the change

  1. Confirm the player’s exact current Minecraft identity through your normal moderation process. Record the reason and intended duration privately, and establish whether the player can currently receive voice even though transmission is being restricted.
  2. Check the installed help for /vmute and its accepted duration format. The documented command accepts a player with optional duration and reason, but do not invent a shorthand duration that the installed release may parse differently.
  3. Allow the moderator only the required pv.mute and, where appropriate, pv.unmute permissions. Apply the agreed targeted mute and ask a cooperating test account to verify what the affected player can and cannot transmit.
  4. Use /vunmute for the agreed test reversal or confirm expiry when a supported timed mute was used. Retest transmission with the same listener and keep the moderation record clear about when the restriction ended.

Check the result

The affected player’s transmission should follow the moderation decision without interrupting other nearby players. Verify the reversal explicitly; the absence of an error message is not enough to establish that voice was restored.

If the test fails

If the wrong account was selected, reverse that mute immediately and record the correction. If unmuting does not restore speech, inspect client mute and microphone state before removing unrelated moderation records or restarting every voice instance.

Use a consenting test player while learning the command. Do not practise moderation on uninvolved players, and keep reasons and disciplinary details out of public console screenshots.
