Extra Points for Successful Reports?

[11Ls]

I've been reporting a lot of rule-breakers (Mostly fly-hackers on eggwars, hate those guys). I'm just wondering if there's any way to get something back from helping the server be safer. If we have a successful report, it would be cool if we got some points added. I know most of my friends hate reporting rule-breakers because it's a "waste of time" and "you can always just leave or join a different game." It also takes me a lot of time to report players, as I do it with high quality 60fps videos (They're usually around a gigabyte each). It would make me so much happier if I even just got a cubelet from a successful report. I'm sure it would also make hackers change their mind.

Whenever someone decides not to report a rule-breaker, I just reenact that scene from Breaking Bad where Jesse says "He can't keep getting away with it!" (If you've never seen that scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEKB7pi1mbc)

Thank you!

Has been suggested before. More people will attempt to exploit that system (as they already do by AFKing in games for free rewards) by reporting as many players as possible. What if someone rages and wants a player banned? It's easy to falsify chat evidence, which means the falsely accused gets muted unfairly.

is the reward.

Man, you've reported a lot. I can tell a lot of people like getting banned. Maybe the present should be a ban because those are good things to have.

Yes ^ that's the reward. Don't you just find it satisfying enough to just report? Even though some of them do get denied but that only a small percent.
Maybe a reward would help for those people who need some encouragement. But still I don't really like this idea.

I forget who it was but someone once posted a photo of the the report section and it said "thanks to you 430 something players have been punished"

430 players got the best gift ever. I know one of the guys reported a bunch (has anyone reported 1k+ players yet?).

That was definitely @telegamer.. he is at 500+ now

No, I'm highly against this.

Reporting rule breakers is an extra (good) thing you do for the server, the players and the community, you shouldn't be rewarded for this.

Then make it only successful hacking reports? I guess?

Those two closed reports are just painful.

People have been falsely banned before. Though only a small portion have been, it's still going to make more players look bad when they shouldn't be. I made several threads highlighting those problems. Other people have reported that issue before where people can falsify evidence, so no good in encouraging (fake) reports.

Doesn't matter if it's successful or not. It doesn't fix that players have the choice to make reports and the prize is not worth the return after spending hours losing to hackers.

i dont see why this could be against the EULA

there is already a reward its called making the server a safer place ^^

This is actually a great idea! This is will motivate people to report hackers ad make playing more fun for everyone else.

This is also actually a good point. So, either you should get points only for reports with video proof, or, maybe you just won't get a reward for reporting offences that are punishable with a mute.

They keep creating and stealing alts. Maybe the dumb ones (who hack on the main) will get affected the most, but for those who use alt dispensers the ban is merely a temporary setback.

no matter where you go or what you do there will always be hackers or rule breakers

Hmm this could be a good idea maybe a way to motivate people to report low chance but we could do something like this.

 

[TheLucian]

First this has already been suggested as said above. Second people report not for the fame not for the "points" as suggested. I'm sure a lot of people would like this but to be honest it just isn't the right thing to do. Also a lot of people have a ton of reports so they would be rich$$

One point for every 259 reports and I'm in. No more no less.

This, or something like it, has been suggested in the past. Players shouldn't need points/a tag/a rank/whatever in return for reporting rulebreakers. The rulebreakers getting punished/making the server better should be enough of a reward.
