A player who is listed on the OP (operator) list, having access to most or even all of the commands on a server.

|
| AFK |
Away From Keyboard: when a player is away from their computer.
|
| AFK farm |
A farm that requires a player to function by making the player perform tasks automatically, exploiting interacting mechanics in a way that the player doesn't have to be actively involved due to the fact it only requires one, more or even no keys to be held indefinitely, which can be done by a weight placed on the keyboard/mouse or by exploiting an alt-tabbing glitch.
|
| AFK farming |
When an AFK player runs an AFK farm.
|
| Beef |
Shortening of 生の牛肉. (Cooked) Beef might be a miscalling for ステーキ as well (however, cooked_beef is the item's ID).

| Block verb |
To obstruct something; to block with the 剣 (pre 1.9) / 盾.
|
| Buff noun |
A special ability, granted by modded servers (modified attributes, eg. flying in survival mode, or higher speed than usual, not to be confused with the potion effect here), or granted in vanilla, like status effects. Debuff refers to a negative effect.

| Butter |
Jargon or a joke term for 金. It is called like that because of the appearance of 金インゴット in-game. Now, rarely used.
|
| Cave Noises/Sounds |
Ambience.
|
| Cheater/Hacker |
The toxic part of the community; sometimes typed differently to avoid chat censoring (eg. Haxor), it describes someone using modified clients to gain unfair advantages. Most servers forbid the use of those clients, and their use is not moral as well. However, some servers also forbid accusing players of being hackers on chat and whisper, but do provide an alternative method of reporting to staff like forums or dedicated in-game commands.
|
| Cobble |
A shortening for 丸石.
|
| Defend |
Sometimes a miscalling for blocking rather than defending something.
|
| Dia |
A shortening for ダイヤモンド.[要出典] This term is often used in multiplayer servers in the chat as it is common on some servers to trade other items for diamonds.
|
| Emer/Em |
A shortening for エメラルド.[要出典]
|
| EZ |
"Easy", depending on context (at the end of a game, and/or like in GG EZ), some servers (completely) forbid the use of this word because it might be "not respectful to the players".

|
| Gear |
Armor; may refer to the removed feature: Cog (originally Gear), however chances to see a player talk about it is close to none. Geared means "having armor equipped".
|
| GG |
Good Game. Goes with EZ too, as GG EZ (Good game, it was easy).

While similar to the destructive form of griefing, the most notable difference is that raiding is done with the purpose of gaining material assets (i.e. items) or strategic advantages towards an enemy and in most cases, it is on a relatively large scale. This term is mostly used on Factions servers.
