This command was blocked because it can be used to bypass tptoggle. However, we shouldn't resort to just flat out blocking the command. There are many ways that we can use to fix the issue. - Use permission nodes to block the use of getting other people's coordinates - this can be done by giving this node only to admins - essentials.getpos.others
- Modify Essentials directly to check if the target has their TP disabled and if they do, don't give their location.
Blocking commands should only be used as a last resort. Never as an "easy way out".

I don't get it why you'd need to know someone's location if they have teleportation enabled when you can just teleport to them in that case?
I say only enable /getpos on yourself (if that isn't the case yet).

If this gets accepted I’ll submit a PR I already have waiting to implement self usage of /getpos and giving admins the ability to do so for themselves and others.
Although I have to say, /getpos is basically useless on any server that has essentials, because tp is a thing, but if you’re suggesting it in the sense to use it to save locations or places, and such, then I vouch.

Although a feature may not be useful at a first glance, it can be when combined with another feature to do something completely unexpected. Also, if you're gonna make it only work for yourself, just give the permission node only to Super Admins and above.
