    So I log on today and on my main island and 2 of my alts islands, their pig grinders had been disabled by removal of a single piece of redstone.

    None of these islands has anyone trusted other than my own accounts so can only assume was either done by a mod or by someone exploiting

    I'd like to also make clear that these 3 islands are spread out over the server not next to one another so it means either someone hunted them out or could /visit them dispite the islands being locked

    Just to add on to this, since I posted this, someone interfeered with the grinder on pweedles island. That char has only my main Maskaler trusted so there should be no way anyone can do that

    See that was my first thought but if my main was hacked I'm sure they'd have emptied out my cash and pweedle doesn't have /fly so cannot access the areas that were tampered with

    You mentioned earlier that something similar has happened before and K41YU said he found out the issue from what I could tell. Could whatever went on previously have anything to do with this?

    No, the issue on a different thread was someone abusing a glitch to get into a blocked off area. This issue is someone physically removed a piece of redstone within 3 different grinders to stop them functioning

    This may sound stupid, but is there any chance your /settings messed up and now players can place/destroy blocks? This has happened in the past

    I checked logblock island of the spawner I found you afk at, and the only user with logs of breaking redstone_wire in that area was yourself:

    If you give me the coordinates of any other known cases/grinders that were affected, I can check those as well.

    If you’re sure you haven’t done this you have probably been hacked I can recommend you changing your mc password and enable 2FA
