    "we're all just wording our responses wrong," thats probably the case XD My english skills aren't that great after all xD but I still think that hack clients like Huzuni, Kryptonite, Jam, Metro, Wurst, Senos etc. should still be legal, just keep the illegal hacks illegal like the way it already is

    Rex at this point I don't know what you're even trying to get across to us.

    The ONLY reason I am against hacked/cracked clients is because they are illegal in real life. A mod is legal because you must have MineCraft to use it. It's like a DLC for a console game. You need the game first to get different content. Mod's are obtainable by everyone, but so are illegal copies of the game, which sometimes contain the same material as a mod.

    I'm also just going to put it out there that you have no idea how these types of shenanigans go down, which is why you're making no sense.

    You've already stated yourself not supporting, so what's the point in repeating yourself? And yes, I did say you had a thick skull. Do you have a problem?

    I think hacked/cracked/pirated accounts should be illegal, but there is no way to find out what account is hacked/cracked/pirated. Modifacations on the other hand I think the rules should stay the same.

    At this point no one is bothering to look into what this thread is about before commenting and saying something very off topic.

    Could you lock it? :/

    Before you lock I have a question. What's the difference between a mod and a hack? Is it just one is legal and one isn't? :s

    reading up on it, mods are things like optifine, or to many items, or something that adds like... pets that arent in the main game, or etc.

    hacks (and hacked clients) are what adds things like speed, fly, fast bow, etc

    Sort of what Rex said, but yes. Hacks are a lot more deliberate and malicious than mods. Mods are also used with permission.

    They could just modify NCP and keep the allowed mods on while restricting the illegal ones.

    You've stated many times that you are stealing someone else's work using a hacked client, but they are publicly up for download. They want you to use them.

    Ok lets clear this up.
    When we talk about hacks, we are talking what you said first up. Hacking is attempting to or successfully breaking into computer systems, bypass security etc etc.
    So therefore if a player here were to hack, it would mean gaining access to the servers files and modifying them, possibly to ruin the server.

    Now when we talk about hacked clients, the word hack is incorrectly used.
    Hacked clients in reality are nothing more than cheats. They add new functionality to the game, much like an average mod, but runs server and client side. Its just a client with more functionality.

    Now you still need to have bought minecraft to use the cheat client, therefore it is not stealing in that sense. There are many websites that offer the hacked clients for download and mojang would easily shut them down if they wanted to. But there is nothing that says clients like huzuni are illegal. Plus they offer their download for free and you can pay if you want to, much like this server. Are were breaking mojangs rules? probably. But we still play and pay.

    Now these cheats can achieve different things but more are harmless on skyblock. This is because all hacks can do is help you achieve things faster. Like build your island faster, gain materials faster, kill mobs afk. All this does not affect the outcome of skyblock because the aim of skyblock is to build and survive. There is nothing to win, no pvp, nothing to gain except wealth. You cannot generate items with a cheat client, so there is nothing wrong with using them.

    For whoever said ban them like mineverse; look at mineverse. It has game modes like pvp which cheat clients work well to ensure victory. Cheats in that case ruin the game experience. On skyblock, what does it matter if someone wants to break things faster. It isnt affecting you. If someone wants to fly hack, they get banned. If someone wants to kill many mobs at once, i mean its just mobs.

    Report the people that cheat if you want, but cheats are useful in building. It is not unfair to use cheats in skyblock. There are donors that get much more perks than a person with a cheat client and that is probably more unfair in that case.

    No support.

    They're not hacks, nor are they cheats... they're mods.

    The official name for the client is a modded client, just clearing this up... lol.

    I know that already, but I went over before that the reason this thread got so out of hand was because I was wording it wrong, along with a couple others.

    By using hacks, though, they are bypassing security. The security here for instance are the anti-cheat plugins like the one that prevents you from flying illegitimately.

    I am against pirated copies of MineCraft, not necessarily "hacked" clients. As said above those are mainly just modpacks with features relative to actual illegal duplicates.

    But yes, in the end, I do agree with pretty much what everyone has said, and I am content ( for the most part ) of how this thread turned out. We all learned a valuable lesson here today: Do not mess with puppies holding knives. (つ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)つ
