    How to beat hackers in Bedwars

    The only hackers I have seen are using Bedrock clients as they bypass the anti-cheat. They break all beds within about 1 minute and then kill everyone with speed, reach and fly. The only way to "beat" them is to check for Bedrock players before the game starts and leave.

    Do You Disrespect Archers?

    The rules only say camping is not allowed in practice https://pika-network.net/rules/ In Bedwars, camping is pretty much the same as defending. If you are constantly under attack then you are stuck in your base. If you aren't good enough to win at PvP you need a different strategy to win.

    Do You Disrespect Archers?

    Except jump boost, fireball them, fireball jump up, ender pearl, build a wall, shoot back with your own bow... Otherwise nothing....

    What words are counted as "bad words"?

    This Suggestion and the associated denied player reports say different. https://pika-network.net/threads/use-common-sense-in-chat-reports.381934/#post-1049652 According to this "fck your mum" is quite acceptable.

    Denied Practice i would suggest pika network to add fireball fight . as many people moved from pika network to mc ga

    Although it has been denied before I still think it is a worthy suggestion. I know it does help keep people on the server because I myself leave Pika to go to other practice servers like gamster. It should also be noted that the distance you travel and the time it takes for TNT to explode can...

    Do You Disrespect Archers?

    Why is someone who is good with a bow but not a sword a "noob" yet someone who is good with a sword but not a bow not one? Use the weapon you are good at I say. I recently played a quads game where a group of low level players successfully defended their bed and eventually beat some ranked...

    this hacker dude

    Maybe give a bit more context about what is happening. Unfortunately, Pika requires video evidence for bans so if you can't do that you are stuck.

    What Are Your Thoughts On KB Prices!

    There are over 15 denied suggestions for KB stick price reductions so this is a discussion and not a suggestion. My feelings are that people who are good at melee PvP don't like KB sticks as they only want to fight using the weapon they are superior with. Keeping the price high and unbalanced...

    Banning For no Reason !

    Forge is not suspicious at all. It is how a lot of clients add mods. Optifine is allowed too. Lunar also includes optifine zoom and similar optimizations. Regularly getting 20+ kills in a game could be why people report you though. It could be different play styles, but I don't think I have...

    Denied Global Use Common Sense In Chat Reports

    I should have said mute instead of ban. The underlying logic here isn't consistent. Using similar looking letters is presumably an offense because you can still read it. Ommiting a letter is the same thing. No-one is confused about what "fck your mum" is saying. Spelling it correctly as a...

    Denied Global Use Common Sense In Chat Reports

    Minecraft username: opticyclic Suggestion: Use Common Sense In Chat Reports Detailed description: I had 2 chat reports denied recently. They were "fck blue" - "not punishable" and "fk your mam" - "Too light to be punishable" However, if you spell the f word out fully you do get muted...

    Denied Lifesteal Some staff on the server

    Did you read my post? I said: "my impression was that player reports was the only way hackers were dealt with on Pika" Meaning I know about player reports. My question is how do we know if there are any staff online and is there a notification in chat when someone gets banned

    Denied Lifesteal Some staff on the server

    As a player, is there any way to tell if there is a staff member online? If one sees hackers very frequently with nothing apparently happening it can appear that there are never any staff members online. I have felt similar in the past and my impression was that player reports was the only way...

    Denied Website Resubmission of Denied Suggestions after a considerable period

    I agree to some extent. I think there needs to be some pragmatism in the "denied because it was denied" argument. Things change over time and an argument for something being invalid 4 years ago might no longer be valid today. Similarly there needs to be leeway for discussion about the merits of...

    Hacker .ccbluex2024

    Surprise surprise it was denied. I agree that a video is more convincing. However, a screenshot can be enough for a moderator to make a decision with just a little critical thinking. The same player breaking every bed without any other messages in chat before Diamond 1is without doubt a...

    Hacker .ccbluex2024

    I also reported this guy and it got denied due to not having a video. It is quite clear from that first screenshot that he is hacking. No-one legitimate is able to break beds that fast with no other messages in chat. It is also clear because he is a Bedrock player with a dot at the start of...

    Hacker

    Whilst that guy is almost certainly fly hacking, you can't easily tell from that screenshot if he is or if he is in the middle of a fireball jump. That said, the reporting system here isn't as fast or easy as it could be.

    Denied Global Automatic Daily Mute Bans

    Thanks for taking the time to make a considered response. This suggestion isn't supposed to be an exhaustive and bulletproof solution. The point is just to take care of the most obvious cases. The mod team can then handle the cases where people are being creative. You are correct in that...
