First of all there are a a lot and i mean A LOT of hackers on annihilation as we all know and there arent enough admins online and i know that Nature and TGM are the only admins that are active on annihilation and they cant ban all the hackers because there are a bunch of them.I want to play legit without hackers as we all do well some of us....
Ok, seriously if you want those hackers to be banned. The only way for you are: Download fraps, encounter a hacker, start to recording, ready to report them, they are gonna be banned. Don't rely on admins or autoban too much, they are only banning hackers to the certain degree. The most important is us, we have the power to report them, for the greater good of the server and no more hackers...
You forgot about @TimberWolfHD and @KinqCake (kinq was recently promoted) Also a prime factor in promoting new staff is if the mod actually is up for the job and it's a big decision when promoting someone. I suggest you leave those kind of matters to the staff and H-admins, after all, they know what's best for the server
It depends on time zones. Some staffs are active in that or that timezone like Ashley is saying timber and cake has a totally different timezone than f.e me therefore i never really do see ashley but im active regardless. We dont have staff from every timezone in the world therefore you guys experience little staff online some times wich is because of timezones and we arent robots. Still head-admins check our activity and finds out who has the best or worst. You guys complain that we are inactive but he truth is that if we are inactive it's up to the head admins not you. -Henry
Adding to what @HenryrocksMC said, although it might seem that there aren't any staff on, they have different timezones which makes it so that sometimes when you are playing, some staff might be at their jobs, at school, or even sleeping. You have to remember that staff have irl lives as well. They aren't robots to always be active 24/7. For this purpose(and others), the report system was made so that even when mods and admins aren't available, they are still able to mute/ban wrongdoers. The least you can do is get a recording system (easily download bandicam or some other software) and record the hackers or take screenshots of people breaking the rules in chat.
TimberWolfHD, HenryrocksMC, Kinqcake, 66TheGirlMiner99, balot, Nature045... pretty sure thats all of the admins on anni atm. (sorry if i forgot someone) It's not a lot but they still do their job. And its not that easy to just get 10 new admins, lol.
The thing also is there are people on annihilation who see what they think is a hacker and people who are actually hacking. It's true that some of the helpops are not correct. So when we see people who continuously report someone who isn't hacking we don't respond because either we're in vanish and don't want people to know we're on, or because we have all these other helpops to check. It's not the easiest thing in the world to catch hackers, and the admins have 6 annihilation games that they have to watch over. It isn't really that more admins are needed, but maybe an easier way for admins to be able to catch them. We're doing the best we can
