# Direct Message
Send and receive private 1-on-1 messages between players.
## Basic Usage
### Sending a Message
```
/tell <player> <message>
```
Aliases: `/t`, `/msg`, `/m`, `/w`, `/whisper`
Sends a direct message to the specified player. Clicking on a received message will auto-fill the reply command to the sender.
### Quick Reply
```
/reply <message>
```
Alias: `/r`
Replies to the last player who sent you a message. If there is no such player, the message is sent to the last player you messaged.
To use quick reply, `features.quickReplies.enabled` must be `true` (default) in `config.yml`.
## Cross-Server Direct Messages <Badge type="tip" text="v1.3.0~" />
> [!NOTE]
>
> To use this feature, set `features.velocityIntegration.crossServerDirectMessage` to `true` in `config.yml`.
To message a player on another server, specify the player argument as `playerName@serverName`.
```
/tell <player>@<server> <message>
```
`serverName` is the `features.velocityIntegration.serverName` configured on the **destination** server, not the name Velocity uses internally. A server left at the default `"Unknown"` cannot be addressed meaningfully, so give every server a name before enabling this.
Delivery can fail in two ways, and the sender is told which:
| Reason | Meaning |
|--------|---------|
| `SERVER_NOT_FOUND` | No server behind the proxy reports that `serverName` |
| `TARGET_OFFLINE` | The server was found, but that player is not online on it |
## Notification Settings
Players can individually control the sound notification when receiving direct messages.
```
/lc settings notice on # Enable notifications
/lc settings notice off # Disable notifications
```
## Integration with Japanese Conversion
When [Japanese Conversion](/docs/features/japanese-conversion) is enabled, direct message content is also automatically converted to Japanese. Conversion follows each player's `japanese` setting.
## Spy Feature
Players with the `lunaticchat.spy` permission (default: op) can view all direct messages on the server. Spy players see the original message before conversion.
## Message Format
The display format for direct messages can be customized via `messageFormat.directMessageFormat` in `config.yml`. See [Message Format](/docs/reference/message-format) for details.
