    The title says it all, there's way too many cheating players on at a time, and it needs to get reduced.

    Using a modded client gets you a tempban according to Lemonade...

    Honestly, no wonder there are so many cheaters.

    I use Forge, with legal modifications of course going off of the Forums. However it still won't ban hackers, because 90% of games I go into there's always one of them in there, and there are no active Moderators to ban them.

    Agreed Nikoshka, but there's no staff there to ban them :/

    Generally hackers get 30 day tempban or permban depending on the staff with a chance to appeal. That is not why we have cheaters.

    The problem is no staff to ban them, little amount of players to report them and pvp servers are difficult to moderate. My experience with Mineverse was being called every 5 seconds to a hacker who toggled off their hacks so I couldn't see them hacking and then started again, as well as 'hackusations" every minute. Skywars is quite similar however the layout of the game is such that mods cannot easily watch over every player.

    I used to watch a banning hackers series, and they gave them 2-3 week bans. Personally, I think 30 days is fine.

    I think it should be permban straight away

    There are so many hackers getting caught every day, generally in one session of an hour or two I can catch 10-20 hackers. It's really hard to catch them all, and video evidence is required for every hacking case so a video is taken by a moderator each time a player is banned.

    If you would truly would like to help out, you can start taking videos of each hacker you see and report them in the reports section, and a moderator should see it and handle it for you.

    In the video be sure that:
    • The nametag of the hacker is visible in the video.
    • You have a clear view of them hacking (Player turning red for Anti-Kb, Player flying in the air for Glide, player glitching off of the edge with NoFall)
    • You make the video long enough so that the moderator can see what's going on.
    We may not be able to catch all of the players hacking, but with everyone's help we should be able to stop a lot of them.

    Personally I think the staff team is fine as it is. Maybe we can just add a couple more members to the team, they could only moderate skywars.
