Before anyone reads this thread I would firstly like to say that I am not hating on the server itself. We all know mcsg has it's good points and if it was that rubbish to play on, it would be long gone.
But... This really has to be said.
For many months (esp the last few weeks) there have been many complaints about hackers/auto-clickers and whatnot. I don't know about every region but this is especially obvious for AU.
Out of the vast majority of games I played tonight and last night, there has been one or more hackers/auto-clickers.
Now, I know that I could have recorded all these people and uploaded them (despite my appalling upload speed) but that doesn't change the fact that I died to them.
Not to mention, these hackers were certainly obvious enough for a moderator to follow them for like 30 seconds and get sufficient evidence.
There is this one player in particular (there name was -snip- - I don't care if I'm not allowed to call them out) that came to my attention about a week ago. Anyway, -snip- had over 100 games played and about 70 wins before they were banned. Yet, I remember reporting them for hacking/boosting many days ago and somehow they were only banned last night because the kid uploaded footage of himself using a ghost client.
I'm completely at a loss as to how this player was not banned before this point...
Nowdays, there are too many hackers on this server for any game to be fair.
As for auto-clickers- don't get me started.
In many ways, auto-clicks are even more obvious than hacks.
Yes, blockhitting macros DO look suss when you're somehow sprint jumping and blockhitting at the same time!! (??)
In the least cocky way possible- I have played this game long enough to know when someone is not legit.
The thing I don't understand is- we're encouraged to report these people to staff, yes?
So what happens when staff members don't reply. What happens when the hacker has already won 5 games before someone bans them?
This has happened on multiple occasions. I know that many staff members do try and that they do behind the scenes things but... Come on... Having to watch for someone 'abusing' you in chat is nothing compared to dying in-game unfairly. I would rather a perceived 'terrible community' than an unplayable game full of hackers..
Honestly, it's just come to a point where I might as well just /kill at the start of almost every game I play.
I know I won't be the first to say this, but- mcsg needs a better hacker preventative system. The last few days have had a shocking influx of hackers and I'm not the only one who has seen this.
To the moderators that actually do ban hackers/ look out for them- I thank you. Provided you don't lie to yourself, I'm sure you would know who you are.
By all means, lock this thread for starting flame.
But someone had to say it.
Thankyou for reading this
