Revert Game Stats for Accepted Hack Reports

Idea:
If a player is defeated by someone using unfair advantages (e.g., hacks), and their report against that player is accepted, then all stat changes from that specific game should be reverted or wiped.

Explanation:
Hacking has become a growing issue and makes it difficult for legitimate players to enjoy grinding stats. A personal example, I feel like in SkyWars I lose more progress / stats to hackers than to normal players and that is extremely frustrating. Reverting or removing stat changes from games linked to accepted hack reports would make the system feel fairer and encourage honest play.

Some jealous players could spam reports just cause they dont like someone or the got owned fair in square

+hive doesn’t want report decisions to be made public in anyway

silently reverting and removing all damages to stats caused by the hacker would be a good way to go about this and also preserve an air of calm about it. when the level 3 player with six block reach and a persona skin gets mysteriously kicked midmatch, it’s rather obvious they were hacking. there’s no need to announce hacker bans, but they also certainly aren’t the best kept secrets of the server either. this way people could get the stats and experience they deserve.

the XP and stats would only be changed when the hacker was banned, simply submitting a report wouldn’t do anything.

hackers dont care abt their stats.

We appreciate this suggestion and understand the reasoning behind it. However, implementing a system to revert stats when cheater reports are confirmed would require substantial technical infrastructure.

Such a feature would require us to:

  • Track and store detailed interaction data between all players in real-time
  • Identify which specific matches and stats were affected by each confirmed cheater
  • Calculate appropriate stat adjustments for potentially hundreds of affected players per case
  • Handle edge cases and disputes about stat reversions

The technical complexity and ongoing maintenance required sadly make it unfeasible to implement at this time.

With that all said, we are always working on and improving our anti-cheat systems. We’re focused on strengthening our detection systems and reducing the time it takes to identify and remove cheaters, to limit their impact on players.
