Looking for someone who joined a server i was in

[Huntsman_TF2]

im looking for someone that joined a server i was in, i dont remember much about them but i would like to find them again, they seemed to be decent at the game, and their user started with gates and had a 0 in the second part of it, if you find them ask if they can message me or something, thanks in advance, someone who plays minecraft with other people for fun

Is this your server or a random server? Cause if it was a random server, it may be harder to find who the user was.

But if it was your server, you can go into the world folder and find a folder called playerdata. In there are .dat files with the name of uuids who have joined the server. Then copy and paste the uuid into a site like NameMC and it will tell you the ign of that person. It doesn't let you copy the file name but if you open it, then it will let you copy the name at the top.

But if it was not your server, not sure how you are gonna find who this user was.

You can go into the chatlogs for your minecraft and if he said ANYTHING you can search for "gates" with control+F on your keyboard and it will pull up everything including their name

 

1. Open file manager
2. Go to the bar NEXT to the search bar at the top
3. Click it and type %appdata% (must be exact)
4. Click enter and open .minecraft
5. Scroll down until you find "logs"
6. Scroll down to the bottom and find the logs for the day you played with him
7. Hit control+f
8. Search for "gates"

The chat message should be 
[time] [main/INFO]: [CHAT] player: message
