Before following these steps, make sure to stop your server first. This is to avoiding breaking anything on your server while you edit. 



Step 1:
 Head to your game panel and look for your File icon on the left hand side.

Step 3:  Open the file and look for the line that says: <property name="ServerDescription" value="A 7 Days to Die server"/> . When you have found this line, you can add your own custom Server Description in the Value area. 

If you want to add colour to your text, go to Step3a:

After:
<property name="ServerDescription"                           value="Alien Host New PVP Server!"/>
