I have an idea for potentially improving server anti-cheat.

[SoftwareSlicer]

The idea I have is a function the server runs to detect if players are standing on a block.
If they haven't stood on a block for an extended amount of time (Like more than 2 seconds, Maybe?) and they haven't been hanging on a ladder or a vine then the server could mark them as suspicious players or punish them accordingly. (Depends on False positives or something?)

I think if something like this was implemented effectively then the number of cheaters on the server would decrease substantially although programming a function that would probably be quite difficult given any number of factors. (Player lag, Server Performance, Player height and velocity, False Positives, Etc...)

Hopefully this idea has the potential to work well on the server.

there's just too much room for false detection

That's one of the main reasons why I considered adding a significant delay like more than two or three seconds (Developers should change this delay based off how long it takes to fall into the void or based on other factors.) before the function would mark you and that is also why I didn't immediately consider kicking or banning players who have been marked by the system as depending on how implementation goes, It is likely that there will be false positives at least initially.

Each map has a different height so this wouldn’t be practical.

What do you guys think the watcher does? Really?
I wasn't going to comment on this but because you just had to be so rude I think I have to let you know that yes he is very busy and its because he's doing tons of things similar to this that you never hear about.

Yes, The Watcher is a magic snowman that can already do that, so technically we already have that new function.

Hes been working on it for ages yet it still has a lot of bugs and cons, he might as well wanna hire more devs, hes like a what? 24 year old man coding for his minecraft server? He should pay whoever is coding con there are barely any good ones and if u want a good one that serves the server good u might as well give him a salary, i like the idea of staff just doing there job to help the server without any money, but think about it? A developer in w server with 1k+ players daily? U might as well wanna pay him to do good, anyways please dont tell me vertx takes centuries to code a “watcher bot” that is still s♥♥♥ imo, thats all have a nice day!

There's nothing wrong with having an opinion, really, even if its a bad one. However you could express them respectfully and not be such a big

I just said there is nothing wrong with an opinion. Really, let us hear it if you have criticism to give. But you don't have to be so rude in doing so

In a nutshell, this is pretty much what the watcher does and I've seen it work. Sooo, well explained Dz xd

We do accept criticism and use it to further improve the experience for players. And about vertx, yes--he's busy all the time that I don't question it even if I haven't met him but think about it dude: as soon as vertx gives someone permission to code BRLNS other than himself, sure they can help him but what if they turn their back on him?? Brokenlens will go downhill all because this one coder abused the system. So he has to be careful and I think vertx is fine with himself for now.

(my opinion pls dont attack me xd)

I thought Vertx would hire someone; like a job to code with him not replace him. The problem is that’s an ‘if’. Of course there will be people like those but usually it’s rare and plus (assuming they get paid) they get money in return. Also it’s not like they are forced to do code they can simply leave if they don’t want to. Plenty of servers have a team of devs yet there hasn’t been any server destruction happening but I understand your concern. Also no Pineapple said that he works a lot for the server and sometimes has to cut some sleep time for the server. It sounds nice but not healthy at all! Hiring developers would help speed up development while cutting work time for Vertx so he can rest and stay healthy and maybe have some fun like everyone else should.

I'm just going to share what I have to say.

vertx is really a smart man, he has a lot experience with Game-Coding and Web-Developing. I don't think anyone can just say "the server sucks because of the anti-cheat", or "the server is very laggy and there's a lot of bugs". My question to you is: what are you going to do about it? vertx works alone, he no longer has edwjusti by his side and he can't simply accomplish a task just because he was told. vertx KNOWS whats wrong with the server, he doesn't need to be told over a million times. And yes, hiring developers requires trust.. vertx can't just go and hire someone who he doesn't know at all, it takes time. At the end, the question is.. what are you going to do to make this server better?

Thanks, that's all I got to say.

P.S. Coding is hard and it requires a lot of dedication and hard-work.

Here's what I'm going to say.
The BrokenLens server is doing just fine, the server ain't as bad like how Mineplex is. I can also tell this server does take criticism unlike Mineplex. The BrokenLens has been doing good, If you noticed a hacker, record them and report them to this site. The staff is good at responding back quickly. All I can say is I'm surprised that this server ain't featured. I think Mineplex should be unfeatured because they are so shady. The link below will show a thread why I left Mineplex!

I just think this server is doing way better than Mineplex, Mineplex has screwed up many times.
