I don't think it should be completely blocked. Sometimes I legitimately want to warn someone that a player is hacking. Or I want to talk about hacks in another context, like "player x was banned for hacking". It would be inconvenitent if we had to work around the chat filter, but seeing that slightly annoying message every now and then wouldn't be too bad.It'd be even better if there was a chat filter blocking the word "hacker", "hacks" etc as the supposed hacker would most likely want to leave after being called a hacker/cheater: a staff member could come and punish them (sometimes they simply do not care though). I know this very well from past staff experiences. The message would show up, saying the user should, instead of simply saying someone is hacking, report the player // gather evidence for staff to review.
Hm, cool! That would be cool to have (although I don't hackusate that often) +1Many people don't know about the report system and feel frustrated and powerless when they see someone cheating. To help those players you could show them a chat message whenever they mention "hacks", "hax", "hacker" etc.
It could look something like this:
As a side effect this would discourage hackusating because the message is annoying.
Try FFA.meh idk i dont see so much toxic people
Haha true, can be. Imo it gets a little annoying after some time.But getting hackusated is fun...
Why warn them when they could be banned for using a hacked client? Don't we want to get rid of hackers?I don't think it should be completely blocked.
