Once upon a time, cubecraft was a nice server with fun games. Those times are long past.
I love the game eggwars the most.
Since February this year, the server is lagging hard, at least in eggwars. This means that me and my opponent have below 50 ping. Knockback doesn't work all the time. People get reach due to lag. You get set back a few seconds and when on a bridge, you walk off. Arrows don't fire normally, but underpowered. And since neither player lags according to the server, my guess is that the server lags a lot. You can see that very clearly in the parkours too, the timer jumps whenever there is a lagspike on the server.
Furthermore, there are a lot of bugs in eggwars. Golden apples get eaten right after eating something else, people get stuck in placed blocks, things in the offhand get eaten when buying things from the villager shop, clicks are registered as 2 clicks and you buy too much. Too much to remember and name.
Instead of addressing these critical issues, cubecraft decided to make a new website and experiment with eggwars beta. No bugfixing, no lagfixing. As if they do not care about those things.
As for my second big point, everything seems to be allowed nowadays. I have reported quite a bit over the past few months, but also 1 to 2 years ago. Thing which would get punished back then are all right nowadays. For some examples, I reported these things which are non punished and thus allowed.
Suicide encouragements in chat. Just today a report against someone for this reason was denied. They are allowed nowadays apparantly.
Teaming, a lot of obvious teaming is not punished in eggwars. People walk past each other and don't attack each other, do not kill each other eggs while having every opportunity. 4 cases of teaming have not been punished, today alone by only 1 reporter. Imagine how many teamers walk around freely. You could just get rid of the message that shows that teaming is bannable right before a game starts. Teaming is apparantly allowed nowadays. Teamers are not punished.
Bullying, Is completely allowed. I have been harassed for almost 15 minutes straight, just because I wanted to see how the match would play out, then I see people teaming and ask them about it. They say nasty things, to which I politely respond. But they get more and more aggresive towards me for no reason. They say I start it, they said a lot of horrible things I can't even imagine about saying to someone. The response I got from the report-moderator was that (1) I shouldn't have started it, I DID NOT. Do they even watch the footage? (2) That I should have left when THEY HARASSED ME. I just wanted to see the match. (3) I should not have sped up the footage. THE 15 MINUTE FOOTAGE of all the harassing and the reporting site only allows for 5 minute video's. In other words, bullying is completely fine. Bully all you want on cubecraft, you won't get punished. Cubecraft allows for an environment which is not safe for kids. Harsh things are all right to be said. Trauma's are welcome to be created.
Chat trolling is also completely allowed. Some ranked player reported someone for something they did not say, and this is also not punished. The same ranked player trolled by saying all hacks can be turned on.
There is simply no moderation left on this server.
If anyone of the mods or owners of this server could explain why the server is run this way, feel free to comment down below. This server is going dark, please fix it.
TL;DR; Cubecraft was nice a long time ago, not anymore. Cubecraft fixes no bugs, doesn't solve lag issues, and fail to moderate their community.
