MOTD problem (help)

Hi, I am trying to add a MOTD but everytime I use the special symbol to create the colors in my code it shows these special charcters, anyone know a fix to this problem (§). Can anyone help me figure out why this is happening?

Thanks,
Max.

code:
§b§m—§r§8§m§l[-§r §6§lPixelmon Realistic Biomes §f§5.0.1 §8§m-§l]§b§m—§r
§e§l(Pixelmon Paradise) §a§l(Hiring Staff!)

You might find it better to use a plugin for this purpose - ServerListPlus is a good option!

Yeah, that’s a known bork. Try replacing every § with \u00a7 which is the correct escape.
