In this guide i wont just tell you what the commands are, i will tell you where to use them, what they do, and explain what they are used for.

Contents:
1. /msg
2. /boot
3. /whois
4. /createroom
5. /stats
6. /welcome
7. /reply
8. /help
9. /report

You can use these commands in any chatrooms and in any games. In chatrooms you just type these in the box. In games you can either push k or l. You can also use this in Map Editor.



1. /msg:

This command will send a message to a certain person and no one else can see it except the mods. You can use this command to tell someone a pass to a game so no one comes in and messes what ever you were doing. You can also use this for when you are in the lobby and everyone is sending messages and it is hard to read it because it keeps scrolling up and you lose your spot, it is in green so they know where it is at all times because it stands out.

How to use this: /msg buttercup Want to join my clan?

This message would go to me and it would say "Want to join my clan?"

2. /boot

This command will boot another user out of a chatroom you created. You can ONLY boot people out of your room, not in the lobby. You can't boot mods or admins out of your chatroom. You can use this command to boot a person who is spamming, flaming, or swearing and you don't want them to do that in your room. But don't abuse this you you could get into trouble. You can't use this command in any games because you would just boot all the good people out and that would be abuse.

How to use this: /boot buttercup Stop flaming

This would pop up in yellow and you would get back into Chat.

3. /whois

This command will tell you if a certain person is on. If they are on, it will say where that person is. This is good for looking for a friend to play with, instead of looking in games for that person. This is also good for if you are in a tournament and you are looking for your team members so you can join the game.

How to use this: /whois buttercup

A message in red would pop up and say Buttercup is in the game: Castlewars

4. /createroom

This command allows you to create a chatroom. In there you can use the /boot command. You can create a chatroom to talk to someone about something or make it private. This is good because you can create a chatroom and start a little tournament with out all the people in Chat posting random things. You can also create a password so no one can come in.

How to use this: /createroom Buttercup pie(pie is the pass, leave blank if not wanted)

This would create a room named buttercup and the pass is pie. It will appear in the bottom left of your screen.

5. /stats

You can type this in and your stats will pop up. When you type that your points, kills, deaths, k/d, mvps,and rank will pop up. This is good so you don't have to go to World Rank and find your self to look. You can also put a name after /stats (name) and you can see someone's stats, thats good so when you are about to play someone, you can see how good they are.

How to use this: /stats (for yourself)
/stats foot1221 (for foot1221's stats)

Your or someone else's stats will pop up in red.

Note: If you just came from a game, you should log out and then log in before checking your stats. It will be updated.

6. /welcome

This command will show you how many users are online and how many games there are. That will pop up when you first log in to Pawn. This is good because you will know how many users are online and that there are lots of games to play in.

How to use this: /welcome

The welcome message will pop up in green.


7. /reply

This message will only work if someone has privated messaged you( /msg). This is good because instead of typing /msg buttercup (message) you can save time and just type /reply (message). This could save your life in a game if you wanted to send a /msg to someone and not dieing and then doing it.

How to use this: /reply

You will send a message to someone.


8. /help

If you forgot any of the commands just type /help in and all the commands will pop up. If you need to know about a command and how to use it, type /help (command). This is good because you don't have to be sitting here reading this guide right now.

How to use this: /help
/help boot

Then the commands will show up or how to use a command.


9. /report

You can use this command to tell a mod/admin about a user breaking any rules. This is good because it goes to them and the user who broke the rules can get banned. If you abuse this you will get into LOTS of trouble. Ony use this command for real problems.

How to use this: /report buttercup spamming

This will go to the mods telling them that buttercup(me) was/is spamming.
