Hackers should receive a reasonable side-punishment

Hackers should receive a side-punishment along with a ban;

My idea is every person a hacker kills is the amount of levels(xp of a level probably) the hacker losses.

More information:

This can prevent the hacker from leveling up will quickly create boredom(or make the hacker realize hacking isn’t worth it) for the hacker realizing he/she can’t level up or do(get) anything when (out of) hacking. Also I know banning works but making another account and hacking is also what they do and usually hackers and their accounts won’t be dealt with immediately unless a number of people report that player. If I need to add anything to my idea let me know!

This is interesting i would like to see it happen

The most thing make me happy at this forums is seeing posts like this voted

just to clarify here, youre saying that if you get hacked on, you get a free level?

Unfortunately this could be a problem for some players, I was banned once for “hacking” when I didn’t. Im on an Ipad so I dont know how i would of hacked…. anyway some hackers dont care abt levels.

Welcome to the forums you can vote for your own posts! I think giving the players who die would be to hard to track and be overpowered as players can requeue for fast levels ( this would only be a problem for higher levels). I would vote if it was just making the hacker lose levels.

Yes, but only if your account has a high win streak because I am aware of alt accounts!

yeah I’m just making the suggestion to add this as well but mainly the hacker will lose levels of this is accepted (won’t be but oh well lol)!

Big no, gaining levels is ment to be a challenge and this could definitely be abused. Also hackers don’t need more punishments, bans work imo.

Oh I think you misunderstood. I mean like a win streak of 100+ a player will gain a level. But I mainly want the part where hackers lose levels!

Just note I might change the player gaining levels part haha!

However interesting this idea is, I’m against it. While yes, hackers make the game unfun and unfair, tampering with levels is not the way to go. Gamemode bans and server bans are perfectly fine for dealing with them. If they choose to keep hacking, then they’ll just get (hopefully) banned again.

that was exactly why i asked the question in my last reply. this could easily be abused, and from my experience on playing on hive, every few skywars games there would legit be a hacker like straight up. i would probably be able to get max level from 0 to max in less than a week if this were added

good intentioned idea but it would be easily abused

I have changed the suggestion lol I understand the player gaining part but the other part I feel like would (possibly)reduce hackers👍

why don’t we just ban the hacker permanently…

I get that but they might end up making or already have several other accounts with hacks. Thats why I’m thinking if we can’t stop them, stop the leveling up part first, and then there’s no reason for them to hack in the first place :slight_smile:

im pretty sure hackers hack not to gain levels, but to annoy other players. thats why 8/10 of the hackers you see are being toxic. they know their progress will eventually be reset anyway because their accounts will be banned.

I get that I’m just making a suggestion :smiling_face_with_tear: trying to get an idea out of my head

Also feel like I should mention some hackers like to use these hacks on their main like for example reach abilities. I’ve seen several hackers use high level accounts with reach lol

im not looking down on you, im saying your idea isnt great.

again, theres not really a way to combat the argument of “why not just ban them”
