    Right now it says "Withdraw from" and "deposit to" minecraft server, which feels wrong as these transactions are initiated from the minecraft server.

    It would be cool if they were switched so sending money to forum bank is "Deposit money to bank from Minecraft server" and sending to server is "Withdraw money from forum bank to Minecraft server".

    Right now they feel gross and backwards.

    but it's backwards!

    It doesn't make any sense!

    I expect the message I used /bank deposit to get to have "deposit" somewhere in it, and the message I used /bank withdraw to get to have "Withdraw" somewhere in it!

    This was fixed halfway a while ago, it used to say that it was to ECC Forum or something instead of server which made zero sense.

    At least I can tell what it means at first glance! It's not backwards and gross!

    /bank deposit (depositing money into forum bank)
    /bank withdraw (withdrawing money from forum bank)

    Forum view:

    Your forum bank withdrew money from the MC server
    Your forum bank deposited money into the MC server.

    -1 from me
    But left open for discussion, or maybe rethink the messages further.

    If I go to a bank and make a withdrawal, my bank statements won't say I deposited money into my wallet, it'll say I withdrew money from the bank.

    It could just say "Deposited from [Server]" and "Withdrawn to [Server]". I just want to be able to make the connection of "Deposit = /bank deposit = money on forums" and "Withdraw = /bank withdraw = money on server"

    "Deposited from [Server]"
    "Withdrawn to [Server]"

    Slightly better, but still not sure...

    +1. I have to do a double take every time I read my bank because it is so confusing. This makes much more sense.

    Although I'd Prefer:
    Money transferred from Forum Bank to Minecraft Server
    and
    Money transferred from Minecraft Server to Forum Bank

    This to me is very straightforward. None of this deposit and withdraw nonsense. You aren't depositing or withdrawing money you are moving it between accounts imo.

    I like this too.

    I just don't want something that isn't clear right at first glance.

    How about just:

    Transferred to Minecraft Server
    Transferred to Forum Bank

    ?

    @Nicit6 changed to something different actually (code limitations at this time)
    Please show example of what it looks like now.

    No. The screenshot is correct and goes in hand with the commands/suggestion.
