Status checker FAQ
Concise answers for players and server owners using this ServerBuddy utility.
Can this checker ping any Minecraft server address?
Yes. It checks public Minecraft Java and Bedrock addresses from ServerBuddy infrastructure. Private, local and internal network addresses are blocked for safety.
What status fields can ServerBuddy show?
A server profile can show online state, players online, max slots, version, edition, MOTD, uptime history, latency and the last successful poll time.
Does ServerBuddy treat offline, unknown and zero players differently?
Yes. Zero players means an accepted online check reported an empty server. Offline is an accepted state after failure confirmation, not simply any failed request. Unknown means reliable current state or coverage is unavailable. Check the profile timestamps when judging freshness.
