    I believe that McBrawl should make a spectating mode for moderators. This spectating mode would allow players to alert the mod of a hacker, and the mod could teleport to the player by a command, record the player, and then ban them. This idea would work for all mini-games except SurvivalPvP and McWarZ. There is a level of trust involved, so if you do implement this, it may be abused by mods in obvious ways.

    The mechanics of this are fairly simple. When a mod is messaged, they do '/spectp [name]' which teleports them to the player already in the spectating mode. The spectator mode puts the mod in vanish and gamemode 1, but they are denied access from their inventory or breaking and placing blocks. To undo the spectating mode, they can use the command '/spec' to toggle the spectating mode off, and the mod will be teleported back to the main lobby. The command names can be altered as I just gave examples.

    On a side note, moderators who have recorded the rule breaker on a server they're not mod on will just have to report the hacker. However, this system will reduce cheaters because players who cannot record can just message a moderator, and the problem will hopefully be resolved.

    Thanks for your time, and please reply with you ideas and thoughts.

    On Party there is a /spec :O
    There will eventually be a /spec on the servers where we can move around the entirety of the map, that s what 1.8 is for.
