Getting sick of being ghosted fix it

[Galaxize]

I lose so many games because im trying to chase someone or run away and get lagged back/ghosted please fix it.

The only answer to this would be to dial down the server's NoCheat+ settings. Judging by the amount of hackers already on MCSG, as well as how Mineplex does without NC+ (it's easy as hell to hack there according to Scotty_Rockz), just no thank you.

Unfortunately, it's not as simple as we want it to be. It cannot just be "fixed".

Here's some information on Ghosting, as far as we know:

• Ghosting is characterized by your avatar or player being stuck in one place, while your camera continues to move around. This results in other players being able to attack and kill you, while you are stuck wondering what’s hitting you. You are also unable to attack other players and interact with chests or anything else while ghosted, unless you are within range of where your avatar is stuck.
  
  
• CAUSE: This is simply a Minecraft bug that we are working on to prevent, we may or may not find a set in stone solution but there are many temporary ways it can be prevented. This happens on many Minecraft servers, and is not only an MCSG issue.

• SOLUTION: Ghosting can be temporarily solved by typing in “/ghostfix” (Or “/gf” for a shorter command), but if it happens once, it could happen multiple times. It can also be solved by re-logging, but that is an impractical way to solve it on MCSG, as once you log out you cannot come back into the game.

Also, here's a quote on "Lagging Back"

• Lagging back is when you are trying to walk or sprint, and then the server forces you to return to a position that you had just been in, repeatedly. This is often noticed in chases, combat, and even just generally moving around the map.
  
  
• CAUSE: This is caused by the anti-cheat/anti-hack plugin being overly sensitive, and detecting that you are moving in an usual manner or speed. This is not an MCSG-exclusive issue, but rather happens with most, if not all, anti-cheat plugins. The anti-cheat plugin detects that you moved from Point A to Point B, with no signal of any sort that tells the server that you moved naturally through the space between. The anti-cheat plugin detects this, and says “Woah there, buddy! Let’s try this again, in a slower manner.” It can also be caused by a DDoS or server failure causing random breaks in the quality of the connection, which would result in many lag-related issues.

• SOLUTION: As this is caused by anti-cheat/anti-hack plugins, and only minorly affected by the servers, there is no definite prevention, and changing the server hosts will not prove to be a major improvement. If you are experiencing this issue, you can block with your sword for a split-second, sneak for a few moments, or break a block.

These quotes were taken from a general PSA on lag, which can be found here: http://www.minecraftsurvivalgames.com/threads/psa-lag-issues-causes-and-solutions.93383/
(Well, technically I'm quoting myself since I wrote them :3)

We are aware of ghosting and we are finding a way to eliminate the bug out of the network. Right now are having multiple issues so it may take a little bit longer then expected to find a proper fix.
