    My host (Nitronode) apparently shut down. All links are dead and my server i bought from them is too, would it be legal to charge back, as i couldn't make full use of the server?

    Edit: i bought anually

    This is why you don't purchase from game hosts/companies with no reputation

    You do know there's anarchy servers in newer versions, right?

    Yes. Either they have to remove the chat signatures with a plugin, or probably with PaperBin which is now alot of them or their community has to stop saying easily relatable things. Also, try to be a little more subtle in attempting to insult someone's intelligence ;)

    And 2b2t is probably gonna update soon.

    After 5 years of staying on 1.12.2, sure. It would be very easy for Hausemaster to update to 1.19 and develop a plugin in the background that removes the 1.19.1 chat signatures himself which I believe is what he usually does.


    Mojang Microsoft doesn't own third-party servers

    No. Of course they don't. However, they own the Minecraft Client and Bukkit (although Bukkit is stagnant), so they're free to do whatever the hell they want to within the boundaries of law.

    and the servers are usually moderated very well

    Yes, most of them are. However, in my time I've seen some absolutely deplorable people on Mojang and the most that's ever happened to them is being banned from a few servers. There's nothing preventing someone from Doxxing someone, getting banned and doing it all over again. This system has been put in place to prevent heinous people like that from affecting as many people.


    Even if the servers aren't moderated as Microsoft wishes, WE are in control of OUR servers.

    No. You absolutely are not. If you do what most people who run a server do which is to download Paper, install a few plugins and change a few settings, you're entirely at the whim of who develops the server and the plugins not introducing some backdoor or equally stupid shit you don't want.


    If you want to truly be in control of your server, you need to either develop your own server software from scratch or rely on a maintained open-source (so you know what the hell they're actually doing, unlike Minecraft + you can fork it freely) project.


    To be completely honest, I ended up not caring about what Minecraft has been dishing out since 1.16\~. The fact that I can't even remember what each version gave beyond 1.14 should really be a telltale sign that Microsoft is just pulling updates out of whatever dumpster they find. Staying at 1.17.1 is the best we can go for, since that version doesn't have the report system, thus no bullcrap. If this bleeds into older versions too… I dunno.

    The game has argubaly decreased in quality since 1.12.2 or maybe even 1.7.10. Both performance and feature wise.


    However, the drawback with using older versions of the game is that they're often vulnerable to security issues (i.e. Log4Shell although this is sorta mitigated but not really in most launchers), crash exploits and general bugs that were patched in later versions.


    Thus, that's why I choose to always use the latest version of Minecraft with a few mods to improve performance and maybe even ViaFabric/multiconnect (depending on if EarthComputer had updated in time for the new release).


    I would also like to state that most of the anti-chat reporting content on YouTube and other platforms like Discord seem to mostly be FUD or just not understanding the topic at hand. For example, I saw some mod developer who doesn't seem to know what he's talking about falsely claim you could be impersonated, which is quite literally impossible unless you zip up your profilekeys folder and send it to the attacker (or install something that allows the attacker to do that themselves).


    The only good chat reporting related video I've found is the one by KennyTV, a Paper (the server software Scissors is forked from) maintainer.


    Your chat reporting is only as secure as your system and as such it's entirely your fault if someone gets ahold of your private key.


    I'd like to address the claim that this somehow invades your server privacy, which is entirely untrue. Reporting is only executed at the behest of a player, Microsoft/Mojang will have absolutely no access to the chat messages you send unless a player decides, of their own volition, to report them to Microsoft/Mojang. As such, it's akin to the player screenshotting your chat messages or reporting them through a server-controlled moderation system.


    Lots of people seem to think the system is entirely broken and I don't think that's entirely the truth. Making the client sign chat messages is quite literally the absolute best way you could prove the authenticity of messages. You know what would happen if a company implemented literally anything else? You'd get a situation akin to the recent false-banning of ROBLOX players who joined specific games which pretended to receive chat messages from the client (which are unsigned fyi).

    if yurni was involved and trying to get shit leaked i have no reason to believe a random change of heart occurred between then and when the raids first began.

    Her asking for admin chat and joking about being the shadow leader of Atlas Media Group to me come across as if she's joking...

    how is the date (February) furthering your case at all?

    Because, to my knowledge, there was no raiding at that point?

    “The worst I’ll get is a slap on the wrist”

    “I have nothing to lose and everything to gain”

    I very much doubt Yurni was in anyway serious with those statements, since she had everything to lose as an active member of the community (in Feburary).

    "The worst I'll get is a slap on the wrist" is a statement she quite obviously made in conjunction with her "Shadow Leader" joke...

    That was four months ago. It’s far, far too soon.

    Personally, I don't find holding grudges for more than a month or so to be very good for my mental health. I find forgiveness often yields more bountiful results than holding such grudges. But maybe that's just me.

    Vouch, ProBot seems to be a good music player. FredBoat seems to have a few overlapping slash commands, which make using a specific one a bit difficult sometimes. This problem will be exemplified due to the coming switch to slash commands and normal text commands being wholly deprecated. Also, having a bot specifically for music while a bot that does over stuff AND music is entirely redundant.

    There does actually exist some mention of doxxing coming into place in the request, as many remarks about how some members have his personal information and how it could come in handy to get him help are present in it.

    Not entirely sure if the information was gained without their consent or not. Regardless, it doesn't seem to have been used (or planned to be used) in a malicious way. I'll update my vote with the new information provided here.

    Object for Luke's reasoning.

    Additionally, I'm quite sure this "Tara" character (who, according to Figure A, sent Luke an OnlyFans link) is your alternative account. I find it interesting how your timezones are the same and you make the similar level of grammatical errors and spelling mistakes (depicted with red underline in Figure B, C and D).


    I can't forget to mention this "Tara" character sent photoshopped images (Figure A & Figure D) where they replaced their IP grabbing link (shown in figure F) with a conveniently censored OnlyFans profile. Additionally, they censored the timestamps of their sent messages, which would probably help if they were planning to replace the message they sent the IP logger in with a seemingly legitimate one they had sent in another channel with no role changing their name's colour. Or they could've just used Inspect Element, which is weird considering they went to the effort of censoring all of their messages' timestamps and conveniently left out Luke's.


    Edit 23/07/23 6AM BST:
    Additional proof that the images "Tara" sent has been provided to me by Folfy in DMs, the position of the timestamp is misaligned by one pixel (depicted in Figure I).


    This "Tara" character seems to be logged on with Discord Web while you're logged in on Discord Desktop in your server (I will not be providing a link to this Discord server as I believe that would be considered advertising, both depicted in Figure G, provided by a friend with a modded Discord client using the BetterStatusIndicators plugin).



    i remember for fact that minecraft account was your alt. because you used it as an alt back last time you were here..


    The above quote and the preceding evidence leads me to believe that Tara is in-fact your alternative accound and you used it to send Luke an IP logging link. Which both isn't allowed by our guidelines and shows no character integrity.


    Also, where's the proof in this accusation of Doxxing (shown in Figure H) you send in your server

    Edit 23/07/22 9AM BST:
    Video provided proof that this user was in-fact Doxxed (shown in Figure H and Video's vote). However, it remains to be said whether or not the information was gathered/shared without the consent of the user or even if it were TF members who doxxed them in the first place and not just having searched their name in Google and found an already published doxxed. Regardless, the Doxxing doesn't seem to have been shared and no users were planning to harm/annoy the user with the information. It seems to me like they were using the Dox to get the player help as in that point of time they seemed to have been struggling with a mental health issue of some kind.
