I would like to preface this by saying: This is NOT a report. I would like to address a MAJOR problem recently, and that is hackers. Hackers are on all servers but I've found they are most common on KitPvp. For instance, yesterday there was someone AFK with Kill Aura, Anti-Knockback, and another hack that I am unfamiliar with that did not allow him to be killed. I would attempt to go up to the tower only to be killed by him over and over, he only had an iron sword and no armor where as I had full Protection III and Titan sword. Also, there are many roaming around the map that will have equipment ranging from no armor to full diamond armor. This leaves a lot of players at a big disadvantage, I think that if I, a Titan, was killed so easily by them, how easily would lower ranks be killed by them? The majority of players don't have Protection III+ like I did, so they would be killed so swiftly that they most likely couldn't even play. I would like the server to install some better hack protection. So the outcome of a battle would be judged by skill and equipment, rather than unfairly downloading a mod. This would make the gamemode more fun for all players. (Except the hackers) Just a thought, leave ideas and possible solutions down below and have a nice day.
No support, you can easily just report the hackers, I know they might gets alts but record them again.
I know, but there are SO many hackers. It would be better to remove them all together than report them individually .
Sure, we need a better way to prevent hackers. Sadly, all the good plugins used to prevent hacks cost a lot of $. I'm not sure if they'll ever really have a sufficient way to get rid of hackers other than people reporting.
I know they cost a lot, but it will be worth it because more people will play rather than quitting from being unfairly defeated by hackers.
This is indeed a problem hackers. Also, solution to the hacker you described in this. /Heal turns off whatever they are using and you can then easily kill them. But before you kill them record them and report them.
I am on Kit right now recording and banning hackers. Honestly, the mods and the hacking protection can't do everything. You need to take some responsibility and record some yourself. It's not too hard, I do it all the time.
As I said in my earlier post, there are always going to be hackers. Protecti0n can't do all the work, nor can mods. You need to record some yourself if you are unhappy.
A server can't just "get a better protection." Spigot is open to exploits just like any other anticheat system, even NoCheatPlus+ isn't perfect. The people who protect Mineverse from hackers... is really Mineverse itself. Lets say that a new anticheat system comes out that blocks gliding, then lets say that the people who create clients find out how the anticheat system works. Then that means it can be exploited aswell. If anticheat upgrades to become better, then hack clients will also get better.
Playing KitPvP is hard without coming across hackers. They should find a way to lower the amount of them rather than just having everyone report them all individually.
There will always be hackers, there is to do about it. As Mega said, take some responsibility and record some hackers and report them to make this server a better place like you are insisting to do.
