--- How to make ADVANCED commands.
game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	plr.Chatted:Connect(function(msg)
		if msg:sub(1,3) == "!k " then
			local splits = string.split(msg, " ")
			local plr2kick = game.Players:FindFirstChild(msg:sub(4))
			local reason = nil
			
			reason = splits[3]
			
			if plr2kick then
				plr2kick:Kick(reason)
			end
		end
	end)
end)

That doesn’t work because it’s trying to get everything after the fourth character, try splitting by a space, check if the first argment is a valid command, and if the second is a player.

Works on my machine:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player: Player)
	player.Chatted:Connect(function(message: string)
		local contents = message:split(" ")
		
		if contents[1] == "!k" then
			local target = Players:FindFirstChild(contents[2])
			
			if target then
				target:Kick(table.concat(contents, " ", 3))
			end
		end
	end)
end)
