Hello, your report was not DENIED, it was accepted, but only the cross-teaming part was not accepted as we require VIDEO Evidence for it. We cannot punish the players without a proper VIDEO evidence. If staff were to be lazy, then looking at the video takes more time then looking at screenshots, you cannot argue about us being lazy. Cross-Teaming can easily be faked on the chat and on the pictures.
I will give you a good example:
What if someone in the chat says "I'm hacking" even a staff says it, for example me. If I in the public chat were to say that I'm hacking, it does not mean I'm hacking, and the staff cannot punish me without a video evidence or without spectating me, same applies for cross-teaming. WE can NOT punish without a video evidence or without a staff spectating. Please understand our instructions. Secondly, please, it is not easy to edit a video into making them team, you can't forcefully edit the video to make them look like they were actually teaming, and this is a staff team. We are aware of how editing can make changes in reports (evidences). Please do not provide false information in public (that your report was denied). Thank you.
"was not DENIED" "the cross-teaming part was not accepted" Do these not mean the same thing?
In the original post, I said, "I have submitted multiple reports against players teaming only to be denied because I need to record them for evidence." I never said that the other rules were not enforced, I specified the cross-teaming rule. For example, if I submitted a report about players speaking profanity, a foreign language, and cross-teaming with screenshots and the first two reasons were accepted and the cross-teaming was not then that would mean that the cross-teaming report was denied.
Looking at a video would be lazy as it would be much easier to see that the two players are working together instead of looking at a screenshot and determining that it doesn't make sense for two enemy players to be on the same island not attacking each other and building off the other's island and sending chat messages asking to team.
At no point in time did I say, "Oh, He sAiD HE'S HaCkiNg So HE mUST AcTUally bE hACKIng." If someone in chat said, "I'm gonna fly around the map and break beds" and then they proceeded to fly around the map and break the beds then that would obviously be different and that's closer to what actually happened.
Also, when does staff ever spectate? I asked for /report and other mechanics to allow for staff to actually moderate games months ago and I still don't see it implemented. This entire post is about implementing another change to better the system to rid the server of the vast amount of rule breakers.
As per my previous comment, "There’s nothing provided saying that it has to be in a video. If that’s a part of the rules why would it not be listed with the rules? When there’s nothing saying anything about video evidence being required until after the report has been submitted, it gives the appearance of the inept staff being lazy and not looking at the screenshots for evidence of teaming."
Please read my posts more carefully before trying to dismiss me and slander my claims. Thank you.
