Other - Hackusations and you!

    Hello everyone! The staff team has recently been looking over and making a plethora of changes to our in-game report system. These changes are being put in place specifically to make the system more efficient, and to east the job of staff members removing rule-breaking players from the servers.

    To complements these changes, we are now asking players not to accuse others of cheats in chat, and instead, use the /report command. This includes, but is not limited to:
    • Telling other players to report someone
    • Accusing a players of cheats, spam, or team griefing
    • Any other sort of public shaming
    This prevents pointless arguments from being created on the servers, and allows for staff members to quickly and methodically remove cheaters without having to clean up the mess from a shouting match. Accusing players of cheats is also considered public shaming, which we do not allow anywhere on the network.

    Now get out there and play! And as always, we thank you for flying Shotbow.

    Do not joke around with something like that.
    Even if you and the person you're joking about do understand it, others might take it serious or end up confused.
    Thanks.

    Thanks, its time the staff finally covered something like this.
    Could we look at doing a 4 hour mute for calling people a hacker?

    Sounds nice, but how will the players that don't read the forums know?

    They don't, and most people that accuse others of hacking never read the forum :/

    This should be mentioned in game too because 90% of people don't check the forums. Also (I don't know if this is already true) they should alert admins when a player has been reported by many people. They also should turn off reports from a player that often makes false accusations.

    So, it is now official banable to "spam" hackusations or tell people ingame to report other players ? If yes, it should be mentioned ingame with shoutouts, because most players who hackusate often don't check the forums.

    This is all well and good, and I like the whole system, but like stated earlier, how will the players that don't go on the forums know? Is there a way to get the message to them, or will this be in a handbook that they spawn with when they enter the server? Just wondering.

    Players should already be tipped off that they shouldn't be saying "report hacker'" because we are censoring it. However we are working on additional in game ways to inform players.

    Please make people who are reported more frequently higher priority.
