Hey, I'm CodingJeff (aka ChickenWithACrown)
19-year-old Minecraft server developer & self-taught security helper. I build, configure, and debug MC servers and plugins. I use AI as an accessibility tool, not a crutch — I always verify, test, and explain what the code does.
Quick Facts
Focus
Minecraft server setup, plugin configuration, permission trees, small feature scripts, troubleshooting.
Approach
Explain-first, test-driven setups, clear backups, and rollback plans.
Tools
VS Code, PaperMC, LuckPerms, WorldEdit, Geyser/Floodgate, basic Java/JS.
Values
Ethics, safety, transparency, and respect for server/community rules.
About Me
I'm a young, self-taught developer who loves the Minecraft community. I learn by reading code, recognizing patterns, and testing ideas. I sometimes struggle with reading speed and memorizing syntax — so I lean on documentation, examples, and AI as assistive tech. I always review and modify generated code, and I can explain what it does in plain English.
Outside of MC, I care about online safety. I don't take on work that requires unauthorized access or risky behavior. If a situation looks like a crime or platform policy issue, I direct people to the correct channels first (admins, hosts, or the FBI's IC3) to keep everyone safe and protect evidence.
Minecraft / Server
- 🧩 Plugin setup & updates (Paper/Spigot)
- 🔑 LuckPerms trees, groups, tracks
- 🧱 WorldEdit / WorldGuard regions & flags
- 🌐 Geyser/Floodgate Bedrock support
- 💰 Economy & shop plugin configuration
- 🛡️ Anti-cheat tuning & basic hardening
- 📦 Backups, staging, and rollback plans
Code & Scripting
- ⚙️ Reads and explains code clearly
- 📝 Writes small features & utility scripts
- 🧪 Creates reproducible test cases
- 🔍 Debugs with logs and minimal repros
- 📚 Uses docs/AI for syntax, then verifies
Ops & Safety
- 🔒 Follows least-privilege & backups
- 📣 Clear changelogs & rollback points
- 🧭 Escalates incidents to admins/hosts
- 🧾 Documents configs for handoff
How I Work
For New Servers
- ✅ Gather requirements (player count, gameplay style, allowed mods/plugins).
- ✅ Set up Paper/Spigot, core plugins, and permissions baseline.
- ✅ Configure worlds, regions, and anti-cheat tuning.
- ✅ Test with a checklist and create a rollback point.
For Existing Servers
- 🧰 Audit plugins, versions, conflicts, and resource usage.
- 🛠️ Fix targeted issues (perms, laggy configs, exploits).
- 🧪 Reproduce bugs on a staging copy when possible.
- 🗒️ Leave notes so staff can maintain after I’m done.
Accessibility & Communication
Self-identified neurodivergent traits (ADHD, dyslexia, autism; no clinical paperwork yet). I work best with clear structure. Here's how I stay effective and transparent:
- 🗂️ Prefer tasks written as bullet points with acceptance criteria.
- ⏱️ Timebox work and use short check-ins (15–20 min) instead of long meetings.
- 🧩 I use AI and docs for syntax recall; I always review, test, and explain changes.
- 📝 I provide changelogs and notes so anyone can follow my steps.
- 🔁 If something is outside my skill or authority, I say so and escalate.
Ethics & Safety First
I will not perform unauthorized access, data exfiltration, or anything against your server host or platform rules. If you think a crime occurred (fraud, doxxing, hacking), I recommend contacting the platform/site admins or filing a report with the Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) to preserve evidence and follow legal paths. I’m happy to help you describe the technical details in your report.
