Title: Cheaters - Need some justice!
Post by: YangusTheGreat on May 19, 2012, 05:44:03 pm
I know of two people that play on Opticraft and use X-Ray Texture Packs.
I know this because I spoke to them about this in real life.
They know it is against the rules, I have asked them to stop.
But they continue to use it.
Bloodangel555
Sockboy8

Please can a lesson be taught to these cheaters?

I agree they need to be taught a lesson

I see great moral values here.
Guys, since you told it on the public forum, the Mods will check their mines and probably they will get banned.

It's my friends little brother and his friend.
I don't particularly like them...
But I don't want them to get a permanent ban I just want a lesson to be learnt.
But a longish time, 1-2 months? Or is that too harsh? I don't really know...

Probably its too late to regret. 99% they will get a perma, and 1% one-time warning..:P

Anyway, the SMP Ops and mods will decide about that..

I'm sure that a 1 month ban would be good enough, as he goes on it every day.

I'd say inform your friend about that and if he doesnt do anything tell a mod ingame with a pm just dont post 'a wanted picture of them' out here for everyone to see.
I wanted to say more but i ll try to pm you ingame..

We'll investigate their mines. (I can't - busy-).
If you have any evidence to support your claim, that will make our job a bit easier.

and Xray users are almost always permanent.

This is is one of the 1% of exceptions.

I was round my friends house today and we were installing a texture pack (he didn't know how) and I saw in the texture pack folder was an x-ray texture pack. Its not really solid proof, but its all I got.
I do know that he uses it to find mob spawners for the chests, he found a cat music disk and a saddle, if that helps.

I agree, they probably shall be perma-banned

(on a side note : Removed offtopic post.)

Justice is never bad!

You've done us a favour, and (most likely) prevented us from grief, and prolonging the life of the map :-D

You did the right thing. The bigger picture is always more important, personal feelings aside.

Prevented from grief? How come?

Does he really have to be banned forever?
Title: Re: Cheaters - Need some justice!
Post by: ANTIKOYKOY on May 19, 2012, 07:51:33 pm
If it is confirmed hacking then yes cause they broke the rules.

Oh right.

I can go in-game right now, I'll begin the investigation.  Thank you for notifying us of the problem.

I have been able to verify (and take screenshots) that Sockboy8 has been using X-Ray.  I found multiple vertical shafts leading directly to Gold deposits.  As gold is the most valuable item in the market, it makes perfect sense why he would be hunting it.  I've permanently banned Sockboy8.

I was not able to find any direct evidence that Bloodangel555 has been using X-Ray.  Most of his tunnels dig innocently into caverns, and the items he collected in said caves was all on the surface.  That said (if you're reading this Bloodangel555) we will be keeping a close eye on them.

Thank you very much Yangus for your report.  I consider this investigation now closed, and will be locking the topic accordingly.
