    The ban hammer is about as accurate as it was on MCPVP, AKA not very. But, on MCPVP, it only banned for 10 minutes for a first offense, making many temp/autobans easy to deal with and not an issue. However, this is not the case here. 12 hours is extensive for a ban hammer that has about 95% accuracy, also known as 1 in 20 times it gets it wrong. 10 minutes was plenty of a deterrent for hackers, as most hackers shut the hacks off afterward. So, what I'm saying is: the old ban system worked fine, just not with 12 hour bans.

    I'm going to have to agree with this one. I've been banned twice now (in less than 2 days) by the BAC (Brawl Anti Cheat), and I wasn't hacking ._.

    The intervals would ideally increase with each ban, so they'd add up if you actually hacked.

    I agree with this. I had gotten banned around 3 times just for either speed crafting or milking a mooshroom. I had wished I had only been off 10 minutes. That would be awesome.

    There are defiantly some major flaws with the auto ban thing, especially with kits like Worm (digging straight down) and Phantom. I had been banned a few times back on McPVP and it was only a 10 minute thing which still sucked at the time. Now it's increased to 12 hours? I agree that that is a bit to long for a auto ban which isn't even fixed properly. Thanks for posting this and hopefully it gets fixed :smile:

    Had a weird encounter with that yesterday... I do wish that the AutoBan was minimized more

    Here's what happened if you're interested in reading:

    Needs a minimizal for sure, honestly what's the point of a twelve hour auto-ban? I mean, they already have commands such as /tempban and /ban, you could use temporairly ban a player for twelve hours. Autobans only should be a minimum of ten minutes..

    I myself have never been banned, but I have on mcpvp. It was nice because I could just log off for 10 minutes and rejoin after 10 minutes. I imagine this must be a pain for brawl though.
