Keep in mind that they don't have a large team and many of them are inactive. I saw on another thread that /report gets used around 2,000 times a day. That amount of reports is unmanageable for them at the moment. And it's unrealistic to expect this to change any time soon. Regardless, the most recent changes to the staff requirements were the first step into making the staff team grow faster than what it used to. With more flexible and almost non-existant quantitative requirements.This means that we can expect a noticeable growth in the staff team in the future months. Since they have set up a goal of 100 active staff members by the end of the year.
I do agree that perhaps they could concentrate more of their efforts more into dealing with the situation. Since the playercount has risen so much it's only logical that their presence and coverture rises as well. But you cannot expect them to be forced to do anything, after all they're volunteers. But I do feel like even if they're volunteers, they have some responsibilities, and the staff team should be in the position of demanding greater in-game activity to a reasonable extent.
Also, you cannot expect to have hackers banned 24/7 because unfortunately most of the staff team lives in Europe. And there's a very reduced amount of people that live in the America's timezones. But then again, there's no immediate solution to this other than waiting a few months for there to be more active staff members.
About labymod, the reason why it's not accepted as evidence is because there's a way to edit player's names. Which means you can recreate false evidence, which would result in the incorrect punishments of innocent players.
I invite you to look at the latest helpers, and the newest moderators. They all fit within a certain "profile" that's really hard to find. Not every user who wants to be a helper is qualified for the job or has shown evidence of them being so. It's not like CubeCraft can start hiring anyone who has a desire to posess that staff rank, they've already made changes flexible enough to ensure a fast and effective growth in their personnel.
The best solution for the problem you're proposing with an understandable frustration is, recording and reporting the hackers. Only this way do you make sure they get the punishment they deserve. I know that most of the responses you've gotten sound kinda like this:

- Sentinel has its flaws yes, but you can report hackers on the web! You only gotta record the player, upload it to youtube, and file the report. Pretty easy right? It most definitely doesn’t interrupt your gameplay at all.
- Reporting on the website is too tedious? We got you covered! You can report hackers in-game, although it probably will never be attended. If you wanna make sure they end up being punished, record and report! Your round of EggWars is guaranteed to be ruined regardless!
