Oh, for the whole moving spambots thing, you mean. I have no idea how to counteract that, to be honest with you. I'm just talking about this because it's directly affecting users and its intended purpose is already being fulfilled

 

They could just set a limit to how many accounts are allowed online at once with the same IP.

 

I think they did that on mineverse and it worked quite well. I'll ask about it

 

To everyone here who doesn't know: Spambots cannot move. This feature prevents spambots.

 

I believe spambots can type /home or /warp ... to get out of spawn?

 

I'm not familiar with this certain program, because I don't have a phone, but support regardless.

 

Support, mv has the same problem. It's really annoying having to warp places just to type on minechat

 

Support, I don't use Minechat, however I can see how it can be annoying. Besides, this affects me as well, when I get on, the first thing I like to say is "Hellu " and then I get a message saying I cant chat until I move XD. I want to see this get passed for sure.

 

As someone who had to deal with the spam bot crisis back in 2015 (might have been 2014?), no support until something else is added to deal with spam bots. Believe me, you don't know how bad spam bots are until you've seen ten mods banning over a hundred accounts in the span of an hour, accidentally overwriting each others bans and accidentally banning the wrong people because they decided to try and talk in chat during it. I'd rather deal with having to do a simple command before talking than that kind of mess.

 

As a moderator myself, I know exactly how you feel. However, that's not what this is about. We already have spambot protection. When users spambots spawn in for the first time, they appear at the spawn, where commands are already disabled. This feature does nothing but provide us with something that we already have.

Read the above post. We already have spambot protection.

 

I fail to see how preventing commands stops them from spamming in chat? Do you mean prevents input?
(Edit: I just got on and it seems you did mean input. In which case I revoke my non-support)

 

Support!
