Hmm... How exactly are you going to report 10 hackers with 2 uses? The only way 2 uses is enough, is on servers other than EU. On EU, every game there is at least 1 hacker... And I am, personally, not prepared to only report 2 hackers if I play, say, 10 games
You sound like Huahwi calling everyone and their brother a hacker. I've played regularly on EU as well as US/CA and the only evil I've been molested by is Euro lag. Little lesson for you Broseph: when your sentence begins with "every", "always", or "never" you are automatically wrong.

And I'm starting to view this thread less as a suggestion to help MCSG and more as a way to get people banned without proper evidence. It's video evidence or nothing as MCGamer staff has clearly stated.

Ok, how can you say that you have played EU in the past 1 month if you haven't encountered anything but lag? And, no, I am not "always" wrong, not "never" right and not "every" sentence that starts with these words is false. Anyway, you might be one of those people that thinks that walking on water is legit, but there is ALWAYS a hacker in EVERY game that I play on EU.

Massive generalizations aside, I understand your frustration. I do agree that waterwalking is an illegitimate and unfair practice and dislike how you assume I either don't care or pass hackers off as lag. I wasn't meaning to imply that it's all lag's fault. Just stop complaining and keep trying to either convince us how the original command might help or come up with another idea.

I personally believe, call me pessimistic if you will, that there is no permanent solution to stop hacking. As long as technology evolves, there will be loopholes. I would still prefer a faster method of getting video evidence to MCGamer staff rather than typing a command.

Here's a flaw with your command idea by the way. You know how staff requires video evidence for hacking? (It's common sense really.) How exactly is one going to make this look legitimate?

/banrequest XXXHackedUGood9000 Forcefield

An improved, though impossible, version would be to somehow link the video file (or Youtube/Dailymotion/etc link) in the command after the "reason" parameter.

All in all, I just don't see this as very helpful.

EDIT: However, a more realistic option would be enabling the preexisting Bukkit command /helpop for all users. A user could use this in a server and, through some simple tweaking, broadcast that command to all staff currently on that server (default) or also back to the hub. The aforementioned tweaks would make the command check every hub lobby for accounts of mod rank or higher and broadcast your /helpop to them along with the server number you sent it from.
