a way to get rid of ghosting

[supermuddypuddle]

Even though there is a server restart to prevent ghosting there are still ghosts i think that after 5 min of being afk the console (or something) should trigger a creeper/tnt explosion next to the player. this would help prevent ghosting because (based on mojang's notes) creepers /tnt gets rid of ghosts this would also affect players who actually are afk but, they would see a set piece of tnt so they can run/die but still 5 min afk means you are pretty much dead anyway please see into this

I agree. If a player remains stationary for 5 minutes, I believe they should be automatically kicked from the server. This would prevent ghosting - unless it is literally impossible to kick ghosted players.

You cant kick ghosting players. Banning them only bans the real player, tnt could work but it would be difficult to code and for the most part, the time running out fixes it anyway

How about just make it so that if a player stays on the podium for 5-10 minutes the tnt thing happens. Because then it won't affect AFK players, and it should still work on the ghosts.

Remember that ghosting is not a MCSG issue, but a Mojang issue. Mojang will fix the bug eventually but not yet. Theres no point in comng up with a plugin that will only be a temporary solution. Besides, the solution we have right now does work, it just takes time.

No point coming up with a temporary solution? Then why do we have the restarts We are just trying to help out and make ghosting even LESS of an issue.

Obviously I meant that theres no point in coming up with a second temporary solution.

well i was just in a game with 2 ghosting players even with the temp solution (luckily the only animate player was courteous enough to /suicide) i still think this could be implemented as a permanent solution well until mojang fixes it
