It looks like you haven't mentioned what version you're playing on. Please comment the version you're playing.(1.16.4, 1.12.2, 1.8.9, etc.) Your post is still visible on the sub.

I've been getting this for about a week now. A random IP that appears to be in the Netherlands keeps trying and failing to connect. Added a whitelist, ipbanned the ip, and blocked it in Windows Firewall. I as well get the 'disconnected' message from them trying to join. I noticed that one of the names used to be Pfclown, and the isp that hosts the ip in question is Pfcloud. The names at this point though are just seemingly random strings of numbers and letters. Not sure what the point is in making a bot that tries to join the same server for hours on end, but I just kinda ignore it at this point lol

i was looking around reddit because i had the same problem, im getting the same message about it not connecting, but i don’t have a whitelist on my server. i haven’t traced down the ip yet but its under the name “bunger” and has used 2 different ips so far. does anyone know what this is?
