    First off, I understand there has been a thread by @marcel18167 with the same title ~1 week ago, but my idea is a bit different, his was, in essence, to be able to report people in-game. But the problem with this is that you cannot get proof and people can easily spam it when someone isn't hacking.

    So, onto my idea. My idea is that there is a command /report, that works in a similar way to /buy and /register. It gives you a link to the report a rule breaker page. Because something I find really annoying when a player asks 'This guy is hacking, how do I report him?' and I can't give him a link to the report page. I could tell him to go mcbrawl.com, go down to the bottom left and under Useful Links, click Report a Rule Breaker, but this could go wrong in too many ways. Why can't I link him to the report page? Because of the anti-advertising plugin, when I try to copy and paste it into chat, it doesn't work. I'm not hating on the anti-advertising plugin, I think it's great, but the not being able to put a link in is annoying, so I am suggesting /report.

    Edit: Credit to @teawithchoco for coming up with this idea approximately a week ago, although I did come up with the same idea independently.

    This is a very good idea, and it is one that will actually work!

    This is a plugin I could make in around 5 minutes if that, it would not be difficult at all.
    Nice suggestion.

    Bet I could make it in 4 :wink:

    Love the idea. I often find myself having the same problem, so being able to type /report to get the link would be very helpful.

    Yes, that is the idea. Because when people ask for a link to the report to donator store, I can say /buy. If they ask for a link to the texture pack, I can say /texture. So I was hoping that if someone asks me for a link to reporting someone, I can just tell them to do /report.

    Yes, but you see the thing about that is...

    But in all seriousness, I didn't see you posting that, I'm sorry for stealing your idea although I did come up with it independently.

    No problem, I know you came up by it yourself also I know you're not that kind of guy getting the credit for everything or steal an idea.

    This is the most useful thing I've seen today. A /Report command is an excellent idea! @chickenputty @signature one you guys should totally get this plugin! +1 on the idea :smile:

    This is a great idea and would definitely make reporting a lot easier. But in my opinion the bigger problem is getting the proof. Most times when you accuse someone of hacks they will blame it on lag and then they dont get banned. Also it is hard to prove someone uses something like aimbot, your only chance would be video taping you play.

    Please implement this! I myself have found a few hackers, but not been able too find the link and eventually lost the footage. It was only when the new contest came out that i was truly able to find the link. I think this is an amazing idea, and one that should be fairly easy too enable.

    This would be very useful, one time I had to walk someone through on how to report, step by painful step. It would make our job easier if we can just tell them to do a command and the link would be right there to click on in chat and bring them to the google docs page.
