Hi guys!

Recently, on servers, many people have been accusing each other of "HAX!!!!!!". There are just these 2 things that really grinds my gears.

The first being that people call others a hacker due to some client-side error or maybe some server lag. If you have ever played on a server before, you would know lag does some pretty unpredictable stuff. Some may cause people to be 'phased through walls, or maybe they are forzen for a while then it just supersonic movement and you die. Most of us would have experienced that. Then, when some people sees it, they go "XXX speed hax. Recorded and reported.". There is this graphical glitch on this particular quakecraft server that makes you seem like you are floating when you are actually not. You know what comes next. 

The second being that there is clearly nothing wrong with the guy and he kills you in survival games or something and he is called a hacker. No offense to anyone out there, but this is especially true for donators. As a donator, some of them would think that they are more 'superior' to the non-donators. Then when they get killed by a non-donator, they just start raging in chat. Please, donating to a server gives you perks, but you won't necessarily win. 

One more thing, if it is a hacker, let him be. Just silently report him. Don't make a big hoohah in chat! 

That's about it. Can someone comment on what to rant about next?

Until next time!

This can be fixed with a simple report plugin, any proffessional server should have one of these. If they do not, I don't think it is worthy of your playtime.

My girlfriend was called a hacker when we were playing on Super Smash Mobs. Thing is, she was on a vanilla client at the time, the only thing was that she's just really good at the game. It's quite common for an experienced player to be accused of using "hacks" (cheats) just because they have abnormal skills.

I was ready to play double trouble on the Chunk, right? So I joined the lobby, and said "Good luck, and hope you have fun!" Then this other guy said "With a hacker!" And I said, "Who's the hacker" And he said," You are!" And we didn't even play a game! He said I have speed hacks. So I said "Let's race. We will go the same pace." Which he replied to "Nah, I only race with white people." That's racist and a random accusation of hacking. Thankfully, enough people were nice enough to back me up. But I agree, it's not fun to be called a hacker!
