How To Detect If A Player Does NOT Exist?
I have
elseif m == "/cmds" then
PRAW(p,"_/[Administrator Commands]\_")
PRAW(p,"/kick [PLAYERNAME]")
elseif m:sub(1,6):lower() == "/kick " then
if p.UserId == 261477936 then
if m:lower() == "/kick" then
PRAW(p,"Usage /kick [PLAYERNAME]")
elseif m:lower() == "/kick" then
PRAW(p,"Usage /kick [PLAYERNAME]")
elseif m:sub(7) == "" then
PRAW(p,"Usage /kick [PLAYERNAME]")
else
local PlayerToBeKicked = m:sub(7)
for i, l in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
if m:sub(7) == not l.Name then
print("Player Dosen't Exist.")
PRAW(p,"Player "..m:sub(7).." Does Not Exist.")
elseif l.Name == m:sub(7) then
print("Player Exists.")
game.Players:WaitForChild(PlayerToBeKicked):Kick("An Administrator Has Kicked You.")
end
end
end
end

Try using FindFirstChild() it detects if it exists Source
elseif m:sub(1,6):lower() == "/kick " then
if p.UserId == 261477936 then
if m:lower() == "/kick" then
PRAW(p,"Usage /kick [PLAYERNAME]")
elseif m:lower() == "/kick" then
PRAW(p,"Usage /kick [PLAYERNAME]")
elseif m:sub(7) == "" then
PRAW(p,"Usage /kick [PLAYERNAME]")
else
local PlayerToBeKicked = m:sub(7)
local PlayerPTK = game.Players:FindFirstChild(PlayerToBeKicked)
for i, l in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
if PlayerPTK then
print("Player Exists.")
game.Players:WaitForChild(PlayerToBeKicked):Kick("An Administrator Has Kicked You.")
elseif PlayerPTK == nil then
print("The Player "..m:sub(7).." Was Not Found!")
PRAW(p, "The Player "..m:sub(7).." Was Not Found!")
end
end
end
end

Maybe paste this into line 15 on That (--^) piece of code:
if l == nil then
print("No player found in server named "..m:sub(7))
PRAW(p, "Player does not exist in server. Name: "..m:sub(7))
end
