I’m curious to know how your f3 could be used to hack you

Hello Zandad! I’m happy to say that I might have some useful info on your situation. The method that they use to test people for hacks on this server is to rush them in MSG and request that they send a screenshot of their F3. The reason for this is because if your not extremely sneaky about it then your F3 will present itself as a modded client. The staff use this tactic as almost a rush thing. In the event that you are unable to provide a screenshot you become banned in my experience. However I will say this, “The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence.” Good luck man!

Zandad, that is standard procedure to ask for the f3 screen for proof of not using a hacked client. Normally refusal to do so brings suspicion even higher and is considered as non compliance when asked by a mod or admin. So when this occurs the player is banned until further investigation.

The f3 screen shows no information that can be used to hack your computer as it only pertains to the Minecraft environment and general specs of the computer but nothing that reveals any personal information.

I hope this clears up the situation for you. Also this is not the place to level accusations about staff. that should be done in a pm to one of the other admins or godsdead.

All staff are working for free using their free time to help make the server a fun and safe place for all players. They also work extremely hard on the technical side of things nobody ever knows about so the server and the plugins run as smooth as possible.

I know its no fun to be in this situation but you could have avoided it by giving the f3 proving your innocents. Its not up to me to determine what happens from here out but humility and respect go much further than accusation and jackassyness.

@wafflescripter listen, Zandad, I get what you’re saying, but surely anyone who even knows what a Script Kiddy is would know there’s nothing that can be used to infiltrate your computer, I take personal privacy very seriously as quite a few people know, but these admins are just trying to keep the server fair and glitch-free, if you were afraid what they were doing was going to endanger your security, you should have calmly explained to the admin that they are making you feel uncomfortable asking for such information, as you don’t know what information that could contain, after that i am sure they would have explained to you that there are small details in a player’s F3 that can tell them if they are using a hacked client or not. After that, as long as you provided screenshots in a timely fashion, say, a minute, minute thirty, then they would be reasonably comfortable with you and suspicion would no longer exist.

@MadHatterSupreme uh, I dont think you understand this.
A screesnhot of your f3 is a effective and accurate way of concluding whether someone is using a hacking client. It shows up on your mods, (at the top left) to disclose whether you are hacking or not.
In most cases, it is great for use, although may seem confusing to some new(er)players and/or the unexperienced ones.
If you had read the replies that followed this post, it would of provided adequate evidence to your questions.
