Someone threatened to DDOS me? On MINECRAFT?

Okay, so I was playing this game called Minecraft on multiplayer. When this dude private messaged me he was gonna ddos me because I "stole" his bow? (he dropped it) then, to the point, he said he was gonna ddos me. I don't know what ddosing is, or how its done but sounds like a virus. If so, how can I prevent this? Blocking ips? Reporting? I don't know. I may add further information if needed

His username was "Rickie1000"

he sounds like a noob, raging and acting immature. I don't know whether to worry or not
thank you in advance

I just had the same problem two days ago. That guy was a noob; I tried reporting him on the server I was on, apparently, they banned him. Just report him, he's a bithc.

Could this be him by any chance? Http://theminecraftserverlist.com/player/Rickie1000

I highly doubt he can/will DDoS you. It means denial of service to an intended user. Blocking you from entering the server at this point through your own internet connection, don't believe him. You'll be fine
