/say Hello
A current list of admin commands are as follows:

Admins - Shows a list of the current admins.
Airdrop - This forces a dropship to fly over and perform an airdrop.
Ban <SteamID | Player>/<Reason>/<Duration> - Bans the specified player for a specified reason (optional) and duration (optional). Default is one year, or 31,536,000 seconds as shown in console. Users attempting to connect to the server will see the remaining seconds and reason for the ban.
Bans - Shows a list of the current bans.
