    After some long thinking about the topic, I think I may finally found a solution to this problem many people complain about. Here it is:
    C4 Glitching Discouragement
    Okay, so the idea is to discourage C4 Glitching from happened with messages saying "Absolutely NO C4 Glitching is allowed!" and something else containing punishments are such. Also, it should be added in the rules (which means the rules should be updated to be more specific). If a moderator witnesses c4 glitching happening, it should be a straight forward warning, and they should ask the user if they know what they are doing is against the rules, and a 1 hour temp-ban with proof (if continued after a short period of time), and then let higher rankings handle the user privately and decide on how to punish him further.
    C4 Glitching Punishment
    In the little section earlier, I added a little bit of what should happen in IMMEDIATE action, or what mods can do. Now, for S-Mods and above, I think that a good way to stop the c4 glitching is to take away the c4 from the user. On the first offense (the mod already banned the user for 1 hour and gave proof to the higher rankings), what the higher rankings should do is privately warn the user and take away their C4 for one day, informing them about what they are doing. On the second offense of it happening (having the mod procedures done) the higher rankings again will send the user a message telling them about how they have gotten their chance and have their C4 taken away for a week. On the third offense of this reaching the higher rankings, it is a week-long ban from MC-War and the c4 taken permanently from the user. They will be able to buy the C4 back, but if they are caught c4 glitching with the c4 yet again by a mod and with proof, the user will be permanently banned from McBrawl. They won't be able to purchase a c4 again, but will be able to appeal or purchase an unban.

    Thank you for reading my server idea, and constructive criticism will be highly appreciated. Suggestions may be added.

    SMOD's do not have the access to deny a players access to a certain item, that would have to be done by Admins.

    Could SMOD message admins to take away the accessibility to their c4? That may be bothersome to admins, but worth it for the community.

    No one gets to the 1 hour ban anyways, if they did they would be perma banned.

    Well, I thought maybe this might help out the community and server justice to the victims of c4 glitching.

    Maybe, but the punishments sound a bit OTT, you know, insta-ban.

    What about permanent ban for glitches? I mean, server would get a ton of money...

    We can't detect c4 glitchers and combat them in the first place, your idea doesn't offer a solution.

    0 support on this one.

    Someone might accidentally glitch :/ For example: Accidentally picked martydom on inf, guaranteed "grenade glitch" or dying after a nuke.

    Interesting idea, I am not sure how it would work.

    It certainly would reduce c4 glitching, but is this really the lesser of two evils?

    Also, it would put a ton of strain on admins, as they would constantly be altering donation items.

    Well, this seems like it would work at first.
    But with my experience with glitches and bugs on Survival, it doesn't always work. @AndyinaBEARsuit has told so many people so many times not to bow glitch. Sometimes they stop, but others just don't even react.

    So it could be of use, but telling them the consequences is the most effective. Make sure they know that they can get banned or kicked for it.

    This is the part of where I put this:
    I am pretty sure mods can distinguish accidental glitching to intentional glitching, so I don't think that'd be a huge problem.

    If someone placed a C4 by a lot of teammates to defend them (in the case of shot blocking, C4 could kill incoming zombies) , then was infected by a zombie behind them, that would kill their teammates. How are we supposed to know that it was accidental? In addition, the punishments seem too harsh...

    1. Again, I think mods like you are distinguish accidental from intentional, but there always are the one in a million cases...
    2. Give suggestions, because a mod like you would really help me out.

    Let them get banned forever because when you warn them about being banned they always say "good luck getting me banned GLHF :grinning:." They don't care what you tell them if they actually get banned then they'll never do that

    Lets not be too harsh, but the c4 glitchers like that probably will get banned before the other ones that are ignorant.

    I don't know what I think of this idea. I like the enforcing of the no glitching rule, but it seems a bit harsh.

    Back in 4 to 5 months C4 glitching was common but with the maps edited, the Crossbow and Ray-Gun out people just camp and don't tend to glitch.

    I'm going to speak my mind here. Right firstly c4 glitching will be fixed on the update. Secondly c4 glitching isn't even bannable maybe a kick, as putty said it is FROWNED APON. Thirdly it you take away the c4 it is internet fraud, in a way it is illegal to take away c4 from a player. If they say it is $5 forever then you can't take it away, plus it's a game that is played on a computer. It's actually quite immature, things happen in life that you can't stop, if people c4 glitch then it doesn't matter, it's about maybe 20 kills that you loose and it's by spamming a gun. C4 WILL be fixed just wait.

    At least give them a few warnings, your idea is VERY harsh, even on newer players who don't know all the rules
