 **To add your own blacklisted domains**, create a file called `origin_blacklist.txt` in your bungeecord directory and put the regular expressions inside, one on each line. There 's also a `domain` command in the console to view a player's domain, and a `block-domain` and `block-domain-name` and `unblock-domain` command to manage the local `origin_blacklist.txt` from the bungee console (if you don't know how to edit a file on your own). The list reloads automatically when changes to the file are detected.

+```yaml
+origin_blacklist_simple_whitelist:
+- type the name of your client's domain here
