Summary
Adding a password to a Rust server can restrict access to only those with the password, preventing unwanted players from joining and potentially causing disruption to the gameplay. It can help maintain a positive and friendly community by ensuring only trusted players can access the server. A password can give server owners more control over who joins the server and how they behave, making it easier to manage and moderate the gameplay experience.
