Kicking and banning players on the Palworld server is quite an important administrative tool that will help you keep order and kick problematic people. A kick is the expulsion of a player from the server, used more as a warning or an immediate solution to a problem. Unfortunately, such a problematic player who behaves inappropriately and disturbs other players may unfortunately return. In such a case, you must use a more drastic measure such as a ban. This type of punishment may be temporary or permanent, depending on the final decision of the administrator.
NOTE: Remember that in order to remove someone from the server, you need to know player’s Steam ID.
