The subtle problem of Abuse - Official Servers

[RainOfPain125]

It might be as simple a /ban /kick only.

Imagine a staff member catching hackers with only /ban and /kick. Meanwhile my mod perms look like

Sorta funny that 6 people agreed you only need /ban /kick. Assuming they didn’t like for the off-topic nonsense.

@CravenWarrior

No idea whatsoever on how that stuff would work though.

Explained much in-depth earlier in this post.

@CravenWarrior

Well, my view on it would only work if there were a ton of official servers running the same map. Disable anything cosmetic, hide any and all player information other than cosmetics, and don’t let people know what server the events took place on. Maybe remove insignificant objects from recorded videos too.

And thats basically what I suggested. Coupled with my replays idea

Replays suggestion to combat hackers and save good moments

I don’t feel like typing it all again, so here’s the quote from my dead thread IMO this does kill two birds in one stone, however, if you have better ideas for tools we can equip server-staff with in order to fight and combat hackers, then do tell below.

@Syero

Or just, scrap it?

Not everything valuable can be scrapped. Vaults, Explosives, Etc. Even then you throw the scraps away, and someone may pick it up. /shrug.
