Disclaimer: Sarcasm is not intended. This post highlights some of the recent events that have taken place. I want to experiment with what people think about the community lately and what they would do in similar cases. This is NOT a thread to criticize staff (your team's doing a good job).
As you all know, staff are our greatest buddies and weapons against hackers. From banning hackers to making the anticheat, they all have their tools at their disposal. Unfortunately for some, these weapons have to be pointed toward our friendly community, whether they're friend or not. It's not that they're friends, but to preserve this server's credit that counts.
Let's take a look at what's happened in the past few days or weeks (main points are #1 and #2):
-NedGaming (you're known in this community) and some donors out there decided to rig games in front of their friends. It happens that 2 of the videos shown in the appeals section have been recorded. We can say that Ned was helping the server as a test subject of this server's tools and it is clear that action has to be taken whether people are friends or not.

-Way too many hackers in every game. While hackers are a minority, to have 1 or 2 in every (other) game means the majority of games are rigged.
-Increased lag server-wide. Just days ago, the server became unplayable for most players, if not all.
We might as well allow hacking in order to test this server's weapons a lot more. The anticheat is the server's WIP tool, so staff are our only tools we can use to combat this problem. Given in other servers that their staff have hacked, we can say that even our companions can and may hack. Who knows who is hacking? Your friend? Your own tools used against you? We all have to be careful with what we do.
Bottom line/TL;DR: Don't hack or play with stuff you don't know. It's even worse to try to hide hacks or hack as a donor (as seen with Ryann).
