Introduction:
As we all know, the anti-cheat system on CubeCraft known as Sentinel hasn't been preforming its duties properly. It is very common to see a player casually flying or taking little to no knockback in an Eggwars or Skywars game. This is why I propose the idea of a 'Request a Moderator' command accessible to those with a certain rank or above (e.g. gold rank and up).
How does it work?
Say for example in a solo Eggwars game; a player is flying around destroying other players' eggs and is somehow not getting detected by Sentinel (I've witnessed this many times). A player with a high enough rank to use this command can do /requestmod (this command should be limited to 1 use per a certain period of time). All moderators who are online on the CubeCraft Java network would be notified in the chat with an accept and ignore button. If the moderator presses accept, they will be teleported to the game as a spectator hidden from the player list. Only the player who successfully requested a moderator will be privately notified saying a moderator has joined the game. If the moderator doesn't know who is hacking (potentially cause the game could be on a 40 player map), he/she could message the player who successfully requested the moderator and ask who is hacking. Once the moderator sees the person who is hacking, he/she can ban the person then leave (B.T.W. this command can be used to get players who are teaming banned).
Possible Issues:
Issue: What if too many players use this command?
Solution: There is no direct way to solve this issue, however, a way to reduce the number of players using this command would be to limit the amount of uses per day. Another solution would be if multiple players in the same game request a moderator, only the first person's request will become successful while the rest of the players' request will be denied and give a private response saying something along the lines of 'Your request has been denied as another player already requested a moderator on this server'.
Issue: What if the player requests a moderator even though there aren't any players teaming or hacking.
Solution: If the player genuinely believes that a certain player is hacking, they will be left with a warning, however; if there is no one breaking the rules and the player is just being toxic, give the player a 'Request Strike'. If the player gets more than a certain amount of request strikes, they receive a temporary ban.
Why I personally believe this should be added:
First of all, I don't have access to the Reports website because I stopped using the email I entered a few months after registering my Reports account. Second of all, whenever I would use the /report command, most, if not all my reports are 'Automatically Closed' even though some players I reported were flying in the sky and trolling everyone.
Conclusion:
Overall, I feel like this idea makes enough sense to be added, however, like all humans, I am not perfect. There could be a lot of issues with this idea which I don't know about. If you choose to vote 'No' on the poll, please leave a response saying why this shouldn't be added. Thanks!
