I highly doubt if you will come across players using hacked clients on AU, but I still do respect the fact that you are trying to help each and every MCGamer server. Hopefully this helps! c:
Actually hackers are quite common throughout the AU community.

You have a strong point, more anti-cheats will cause less hackers, but the devs need it to not cause non-hackers get filtered in with the anti-cheat, and the game needs to be playable, (if the anti-cheat is strongly implemented, you may be getting tpd back a block, and get glitched into blocks. thats why /gf was made, to prevent that)

But all in all, these clean-sweeps technically aren't hurting anything, although the time spent IS a lot compared to the hackers get banned.


You say that "208 bans have been issued in the past 24 hours", but that really doesn't have much to do with the cleansweeps at all. A majority of those bans are most likely (I don't access the xime/xac thing) reports on the forums or pokes about hackers on teamspeak.

The US/CA only got
18.5 hours of sweeps.
33 hackers were banned.
Nearly 2 hackers caught per hour

EU with
98 hours of sweeps.
661 hackers were banned
Nearly 7 hackers caught per hour (WAYY BETTER)

Since KryptoPlaysMC is concerned with the cleansweep efficiency, giving him overall bans spread across all networks for all punishment types may not be relevant.

Although "every hacker we find gets a permanent ban" is true to MCGamer in the fact that every one person has one account, but in actuality, it isn't the case.

Even quoting the owner, ChadTheDJ says: "...our evidence suggests that the true percentage of hackers who would continue to hack is approximately 99.8%; only .2% of hackers reform their ways, or simply never played again..."

Meaning, if these records hold through to right now, hackers come back. These stats do show them coming back on the same account, but with MCAlts (website that charges money for information to other peoples stolen accounts) the hackers can just get right back on after the perm ban on their last account. So although that account that was just banned for hacking won't be coming back, that person is likely to return.
They shou
Yes! Thank you so much, I think the AU community has needed a clean-sweep for awhile! c:
The Devs would have already released an anti-hack plugin a long time ago if they actually focused more on that then a silly Disguise tweak that should have been done like year ago, solution hire more devs, k bye.
