First Join Message

First Join Message is a minimalistic configurable mod which sends a message to players who join a world for the first time. This can be used to create a more immersive first experience, or a more informational message with for example the rules of a server or minigame. There is also an option to broadcast a message to the whole server if a new player joins.

All available config options:

firstJoinMessage default "You wake up in an unfamiliar place."
The message players will receive when they join a world for the first time. To disable, leave it empty. %s can be used in place of the player name.
