## **Important Notes**

- **Command Block Access**: Only players with operator (OP) privileges or specific permissions will be able to place and edit command blocks.
- **Security Risks**: Be cautious when allowing command blocks on public servers, as they can be used maliciously if misconfigured.
- **Game Mode Requirement**: Ensure your server's game mode allows command block interaction. Creative mode is typically recommended for initial setup.
