Escalated Add a message when someone has been a banned in a game by a staff member.

[Technosword]

Okay, to all of you who are worried about "staff would be targeted/if there's more than 1 hacker in a game". Well, to be honest I don't think it could be a big problem, because 90% of hackers use alts which mean that they doesn't care about getting ban or no, so they won't hide it, in fact, the majority of them, are just looking for the ban. And, as I mentioned above, it could be an option which disallow reported players to see it.

Or it could hide the staff member's name and just say something like [MOD] Player Steve123 has been banned for cheating! And I could be wrong but when you get banned it tells you the staff member that banned you so there's not much of a problem.

You would be surprised how many cheaters are just regular players. And the new sentinel updates will be getting more than just blatant cheaters.

Also for only showing the message to non-reported players, it's a good idea but there are other reasons we don't currently have staff bans publicly messaged.

EDIT: I should add that one way we could solve all these problems as making the Sentinel broadcast message and staff bans a generic "banned for cheating" message. However, I personally enjoy letting players know that Sentinel had a factor in the cheater getting banned (cause you know, I work on it). Every single time a Sentinel ban is broadcasted, I die a little bit less on the inside because of cheaters.
