    Lots of engineers in front of red spawn. 4 of them.
    But look closer. They're all red engineer turrets.
    Why? Protecting a flag holder? Why? Why?
    I'll tell you why.
    Because two heavy hackers were messing around spawnkilling people. That forced people to go engineer and put up turrets.
    Even then, they kept coming. They kept coming, and killing. And no one could do much about it. Even if they got killed, they came back 5 seconds later.
    And it just wasn't that.

    Seriously Brawl, fix the hacker issue. /report is of no use if nobody does anything.
    Fix your issues Brawl, before the playerbase quits on you.

    Get slack, moderator response for hacker reports is often very quick

    Most of the people I report there are banned within 5 minutes. It's actually pretty chill :stuck_out_tongue:

    Well i am unsure what you want the Brawl community to do about that. Firstly, when you say it's "this player" in the picture it is clearly not visible so unfortunately that hacker may not get away with it.

    The person in the picture has blue flag.
    Then just look at which and who is holding the flag on the board which says who's holding what flag on the right.

    You can't be banned off of screenshots. It really is helpful if you record these hackers or report them on Slack. Moderators aren't in game 24/7. Moderators can't be on the server, and that's why there is a place to report hackers.

    There is many more ways to deal with hackers other than going engie...

    That's literally the most stupidest thing I've heard in my life.
    In all seriousness, just use common logic.
    Are there any sponges in this map? Not that I know of.
    Can heavies fly? Of course not...
    It doesn't take a brain surgeon to put two and two together and draw a conclusion...
    thanks for laughs though +1 for humor

    Just because you can doesn't mean that every person that posts a screenshot is edited.
    But believe all you want.
    All I'm going to say is that videos can be edited too.

    Videos can be edited, but to edit a whole video to make it appear as if someone is hacking is a very hard thing to do. I'm not saying it's impossible, I'm just saying the chances of it happening on a Minecraft server full of teenagers is extremely low.

    Also, please point out where I said your screenshot was faked? I just said Brawl doesn't ban off of screenshots because they casn be edited. You don't need to be rude about me stating a Brawl policy.

    Your tone suggested that you were accusing me.

    xD There was no "tone" because he's not actually talking to you with his voice. It's true that banning off of screenshots is a very bad practice and I've never seen it done (thank god) unless it's for an inappropriate name. Otherwise, you either have to get a mod on through Slack/other means of communication or record and upload them. =/ If you yourself can't get them recorded or whatnot, try seeing if there's someone online who you know can record at a decent FPS xD I think I did that when I had my bad computer and I saw a rapid-bower a few years ago... lol

    There might be that one incident where someone decides to frame another person just because they don't like them. Then they decide to photoshop a screenshot. If they get banned off of that, the staff will be blamed of a false ban. No one likes getting falsely banned.

    I've had this problem too, especially later when not too many mods are on. Recently though, it's been working better (just an hour ago). I've heard from a Sr. Mod (now called Mod) that they are working on an anti-cheat.
