Imagine a world full of secret Moderators.Hackers will be caught by surprise. Hi Ichidna here!Its been too long since I made a suggestion. I feel that whenever someone shouts out a Moderator's name,the mods will be noticable by hackers and most of the hackers will stop hacking once they see them online except for a few bold hackers.If Mods have /fly why don't they have /vanish and /v.If mods are in /v they would not be noticed in /list and people will not call out for their names and they won't be seen by anyone but they are still there.So if there is a spammer for example,A mod that was in /v can mute the spammer without the spammer realizing that there was a mod online.If there was a hacker,the mod in /v can tp to the hacker(To find the hacker one must wait for a victim shouting [Player] is hacking!Most likeley in pvp)And the mod can catch the hacker unexpectedly and ban him. If this command is given to the mods.Hackers/Spammers will not know that there are Moderators that are Actually online that are looking at them. I hope this is a good suggestion!
To be honest I like this Idea, as I supported on one of these topics but the point of being Mod is protecting the server and people can look to you and report someone if this was ruined it would be hard to find hackers. Anyways I have to give a 50/50 support.
The "secret" would get out quick. Eventually it would get so players would guess who kicked/banned them and the "secret" part would be moot. Also, how would you expect their appeals to be handled?
He says we wouldn't be able to see them in /list or /who so thats the perfect spot to be in to abuse (oh let me just have my Mod+ perms and go ahead and /v oh Camel45 has p4 and he killed u ill take it from him /invsee) ad its that simple
Well, abuse would lead to a demotion. My main thing would be that how long could you seriously expect the secret to be kept. People will want to tell their friends first of all. Secondly if there's, for example, three people in a game, and you kick someone, it's gonna be real easy to guess the secret mods.
Well if you want to bring it into commands/abuse Cyp could fix that from /v no pvp and /fly no pvp. But this is too much work for Cyp I think Mineverse is fine as is with the Mods
But some players don't have recording softwares and they prob don't have a forum account and Dk how to get one
I've thought of this once but, I don't know how it will work out because some people will just either give away your identity and how are you going to ban people without knowing who banned them?
Umm, no there aren't, because you wouldn't know if there was, and if you were one, why would you tell?
The mods are chosen for their responsibility and Honesty.So they must be honest.They will say that they are the ones who banned the hackers/mute spammers unless they are abusive.
But if you look at Obssessedtoplay's POV the only disadvantage is what he meant was that the mods could ban an innocent player or the mods could abuse the power without knowing anyone else who would notice them abusing power.But isn't there some sort of Server log or something?I don't own a server Soz idk
