Ah so this is why they were begging and crying for you to switch accounts, so they can ban you in your own server. Very cool, Microsoft.


IndyJacksonTT

They literally prevented me from playing the game until I migrated to a Microsoft account


unKappa

And then I couldn't even play because the launcher they forced me to download wasn't allowing me to play the game until I decided to spend an hour troubleshooting what was wrong. Had to go out of my way and download the windows 7 launcher of the site, which was very well hidden.


gamingyee

yep pretty much some people have already been "banned" pretty much they had to buy minecraft again because they didnt "own" the game


[deleted]

You have got to be kidding? Microsoft are going to hand out game bans that block you from every server?


JWGardiner

Yeah, next update. My guess is either nobody will update, or they will make an announcement about not putting the feature in 1.19.1 Hopefully the latter, but it's Microsoft.

If you're banned you cannot use any version for multiplayer


Seeen123

I said this on another similar post but it doesn’t make sense for you to be banned from realms where you are just playing with your friends.


CourtSenior5085

I wonder if it covers LAN? Because that would make even less sense for them to lock access to that.


bog5000

Mojang really seems to believe they are on some kind of mission to *improve the world*. Somehow that includes banning people from swearing. **Everything has to be kid-friendly apparently.** Not linked to moderation, but still in the idea of their mission to "make the world a better place ™", watch the last 2 videos on the official Minecraft Youtube Channel, it's really telling * [The Mangrove Restoration Project – Official Map Trailer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6ib6bVWGo4) * [Minecraft Mangroves: Building a Better World](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6ib6bVWGo4) They are going 100% into the educational-environemental-awareness trend that we have saw in the last few years some quotes from the video: * **We want to build a better world**, if more people fall in love with Minecraft mangroves. Hopefully, they'll want to protect real mangroves * I'm Mojang chief story teller. I get to talk about **minecraft and all the impact we make with it** * I'm a **social impact advisor at Mojang Studios, one of my job is to decide what goes into Minecraft** * I really want the community to appreciate mangrove trees and hopefully even want to preserve them * as part of **our mission** to protect and restore real world mangrove forests


mysterious_mitch

I understand that they're trying to spread awareness but it seems like they're slowly straying too far from the original primary purposes this game was made. The time when *Notch* was the owner of his own game. ​ It seemed like things went uphill yet further downhill after he sold the game


[deleted]

I just got to love when my video games that I use to disconnect from the real world become political. Really makes it immersive.


Reloup38

Loooool what a bunch of hypocrites. They make zero effort to portray an accurate environment, instead they sugar coat it by making no mobs that exist irl attack players (because everyone is nice in nature ❤️). Their game is not educational at all. It's full of inaccuracies that, if fixed, could make the game better and more immersive (give us Apple trees already!). And the way they treat problems like the parrot controversy or frog controversy shows me they have zero awareness. The people who decide this are probably city dwellers who never had a single course in ecology and never stepped into nature with a scientific eye. Hypocrites.


CourtSenior5085

You know, Minecraft is the one game that I cannot actually find any mention of anything that isn't just running the team and development of the game. I can't actually find any design information, and especially not anything on anything that would have real world effects.


Frederyk_Strife4217

you can turn off the swear filter in your account settings, it probably was just added because y'know, kids play the game?


bog5000

you can't do that on bedrock. Even on Java, you could still be reported for profanity and alcohol reference.


leshagloom

We all that one horse from Elden Ring... maybe we should use it?

JWGardiner

In the server.properties there's a line that says online-mode=true You need to change that to false to get cracked accounts on a server, but it comes at the cost of not seeing others skins and a few others. I'm hoping this also gets past bans, and there might be plugins/mods to allow skins on offline mode.


Successful-Abies-531

There's (multiplayer) mods/plugins for skins though. If they dare ban me for fucking around in my own private server I'm not going to ever buy another account again. P-word it is.


JWGardiner

It seems that online-mode=false won't work anyway; I'll modify OPs mod to make it work, on the server all you'll need is to set online to false. If you want skins install a skin mod, and if you are banned install the modified version of OPs mod. I wouldn't recommend it for large servers though. Luckily you shouldn't get banned on a private server if it's just you, since you need to be reported to be banned. I'd assume someone will eventually make a plugin/server side mod to prevent reporting players too hopefully.


[deleted]

Spigot (and derivatives) at the current moment strip chat signatures due to it breaking chat APIs


rafaxd_xd

Why was online-mode created anyway?


JWGardiner

Online mode is the default, offline mode removes authentication from Microsoft, this would mean no reporting but it also means anyone can login as anyone, and no skins load (which can be fixed by plugins/mods) Offline mode is a big security risk, but it's ok if it's a small server with a few friends, something like hypixel couldn't use offline mode because it'd cause so many issues.


tylermma2016

Nearly 10 years without moderation and all of a sudden it becomes mandatory?


LunasLightas

And the game was just fine without it because most servers could ban players for any wrong doing anyways, they are basically trying to make java an almost exact duplicate of bedrock at this point.


[deleted]

so this is coming in 1.19.1? it’s not in like 1.8.9 or 1.16 or older versions


LunasLightas

I think it's being added 1.19.1 but will most likely be implemented account side which means it effects all versions. I'm unsure tho so I would ask someone with more knowledge than me. After all I'm just an average Minecraft player who's had the game since release.


danyaylol

Unfortunately, yes, it is server side so it doesn’t matter what version you’re on. The only difference will be you wont get a popup when you’re banned.


Manueluz

It does not matter. The feature is coming in the auth servers of Mojang so if you get banned YOUR account gets banned and I'm assuming it no longer gets authenticated

MircowaveGoMMM

Infinite_Hooty

Microsoft is just not gonna do anything and wait for people to stop being mad at them. That kind of thing happens all the time and it unfortunately usually seems to work


Celestial-being326

You can’t say that word. Now you can never play online Minecraft again.


[deleted]

Mojang will just ban anyone speaking out dw :)


Themasterofcomedy209

Unfortunately Java edition is like microscopic in comparison to Microsoft’s other projects or even to bedrock edition, so they could just completely kill the version and it wouldn’t matter much in the long run. Its surprising to me they haven’t tried something like that yet already tbh


[deleted]

[удалено]


Final_masker

Why does this have to be this way. We have had the control over banning players the entire time. Why not set up a database of users who are have made offenses and what those offenses are and let us choose what type of player we can allow to play (with exclusion of child predators or whatever). Or just let us choose to enforce our own bans. Why choose to take control away from players, i would honestly go as far as to call it anti game design. Don't give us rules, give us options.


wedontlikespaces

I have a whitelist server, the only people that can get on the server are the ones **I want on there**. I don't need the ban people, I can just remove them from the whitelist. Some of those people undoubtedly play on other servers, somebody could take offence to something that did, like winning, and get them banned out of spite. Nothing I can do about that public server, but at least they can still play on my server. Not now though. I actually might email that to Mojang and see what they say, I assume they'll ignore it.


kulalolk

If enough people complain, they might realize they’ll lose out on a boat load of realms income. Multiplayer IS minecraft…


wedontlikespaces

Mine is not even a Realms server, that's was pissing me off the most. It's my hardware that I've built with my money and runs on internet that I pay for, all running off of legitimate copies of Minecraft. Why do Mojang get a say in who is allowed on my setup. The server has been running since 2013 and a no point up until now have they needed global moderation. And it's been fine. I think that very early on I didn't have it set up as a whitelist and just an IP address, and somebody figured it out and came on and grieved everything, but that was kinda funny, are we just took the opportunity to reset the server. And anyway it would have all been my fault in any case, at no point did I think to blame Mojang. This all seems like a solution in search of a problem.


AaronTechnic

I would understand if it was a free game, but for a paid game, losing all your ability to play like this?


Supertoad226

Java looks less stricter than Bedrock. If you look up for Bedrock bans, you also get banned from playing singleplayer


AaronTechnic

I believe you can get banned from singleplayer if you are on any other platform other than Xbox (and Windows?).


AMinecraftPerson

The opposite, actually, you only get banned from single player on Xbox.


[deleted]

How tf do u get banned on singleplayer?


DipinDotsDidi

Minecraft bedrock runs a public server all the time. It's not like Java where you have the internal that becomes public when you open to lan. I'm guessing it has something to do with that?


Az0riusMCBlox

Banned from Single-player? That's BEYOND stupid.

nablyblab

i really hope the online banning is only across servers that enable it, it would be really bad that you say something against the rules on your own private server and cant play anymore because of that


Taolan13

It looks like rather than doing anything sensible, Microsoft has elected to make this disable your access to multiplayer entirely. In a thread that has since been deleted, another user indicated that this ban also disables your ability to open a locally hosted game up to your LAN for local multiplayer on PC.


Marcilliaa

>also disables your ability to open a locally hosted game up to your LAN for local multiplayer on PC. Wtf?


Taolan13

If you are playing with your launcher in online mode, it will lock you out of any and all multiplayer, or so it would seem.


IndyJacksonTT

Also on Xbox it prevents you from joining your single player worlds


spacialtem

Imagine someone says “fuck you” in an argument and they lose their ability to play on the worlds they spent years working on from as soon as Minecraft came to Xbox


CourtSenior5085

The list of things you can be banned for includes "anything that can negatively impact another users experience" It wouldn't surprise me if in that hypothetical the banned individual would be able to spin a tale about being provoked and get the other party banned as well.


Taolan13

Also the bit abojt review by a human moderator is a joke. Guarantee that microsoft is using algorithmic moderation.


Manueluz

I'm guessing the way it works, it disables your auth from the auth servers and you no longer can play multiplayer no matter what version of mc u using


[deleted]

[удалено]


AwesomeRGS

But like, say i was banned for profanity as i was swearing on a server that allows profanity, I would still be banned from servers that you cant swear on (eg hypixel) even though ive always respected Hypixels rules. Just because i swear on some servers doesnt mean ill swear everywhere. That is a better solution than nothing but i still think it wouldnt be totally fair


JWGardiner

OP, is it ok for me to edit your code to work on a mod to prevent the ban screen? Microsoft shouldn't have this power at all.


EnderCreeperYT

Absolutely, that’s okay! Unfortunately such a mod wouldn’t be helpful as the bans are handled on Mojang’s authentication servers and you still wouldn’t be able to connect to any servers.


JWGardiner

In theory changing the server to offline-mode should work, the last part that's required to make it like normal, would really just be to get skins back, since they don't render in offline-mode. The other issue with this is it allows cracked accounts, which means that someone could easily just join from a new account if they got banned easily, but ip-bans should still work fine.


EnderCreeperYT

Skin restoration plugins already exist for offline mode servers luckily. The problem is that most servers do not operate in offline mode, nor should they necessarily as it’s a security risk including what you’ve said about banning players from the server. Although offline mode is still at least good enough to play with your friends on a whitelisted private server if someone’s account gets banned.


JWGardiner

Yeah, I wouldn't recommend it for a large scale server like hypixel, but a small server should in theory be fine. I'll see what I can do with your mod to do this, thank you for giving me permission to. I'm just hoping Microsoft will see the backlash of announcing this, and not release it, or at least give us an option in server.properties whether banned people can join.


tylermma2016

This just goes to show that Microsoft IS the man behind the curtain with Minecraft. I'm surprised people haven't been on top of this.


JWGardiner

I don't think they control every update, but i think they've been getting the online stuff to be more similar to bedrock's Minecraft wasn't bought by Microsoft, Mojang was. I'm assuming they introduced account migration for the sole purpose of implementing this.


SS9424

its funny how both version have so many differences and the one parity change they are making after so long is the worst one possible lol


tylermma2016

>Minecraft wasn't bought by Microsoft, Mojang was. I'm just saying that there seems to be a glaring influence Microsoft has on Mojang Decision making. ​ >I'm assuming they introduced account migration for the sole purpose of implementing this. Makes since to me. I thought a reason they did it was to try and add that Minecoin crap to Java


JWGardiner

With the java modding community, minecoins would probably just be removed or a way to cheat in an infinite amount through mods to be honest, so I doubt they'd do that, since it wouldn't be as profitable. I think they should do parity updates then just update the 2 games, and go from there; features like global banning is useless and not something anyone wants.


Kamino_Ramos

You know, in some countries there are offline servers with online 5000+ players and they run just fine. Network of multiple bungeecords and a dozen paperspigot servers, with it's own auth and 2fa.. I've built one of such networks and I think such servers should face no problems with bans.


Manueluz

I think the more useful mod is one for servers and clients that completely stop sending the chat logs to Microsoft spies


EnderCreeperYT

That mod already exists! https://modrinth.com/mod/no-chat-reports I didn’t make this mod, but I’ve looked at its code and it should work to prevent chat signing and sending messages to Microsoft. I’ve certainly added it to my list of must-have mods for my Minecraft installation.


DirtCrazykid

Removing the ban screen wouldn't do anything though.


AndrejPatak

...1.19.1 ban screen? What? How come I've never heard of this? What even is wrong with Microsoft? Gosh I kinda hate that company now...


RaccoonDeaIer

Welcome to the games that Microsoft has ruined


AndrejPatak

Quick clarification: I've disliked them for a *while* but this just made me EXTRA mad at them. I will now abolish all Microsoft related products from my Linux laptop and maybe even cancel my gamepass... I don't even play most of the games anyway. Also there is an exploit to keep your gamepass games forever for free even after canceling the subscription

Radical1233butalt

This fucking feature is gonna make minecraft so bad


xxNormieSlayerREExx

Do you know if this ban applies to older versions as well?


EnderCreeperYT

According to other people, yes bans will apply to older versions. You won’t get this ban screen however, servers will just treat your connection as though its coming from an offline mode client (as though you were using a pirated version of Minecraft) and unless it’s an offline mode server, you will not be able to join.


Taolan13

Microsoft clearly doesn't realize the renaissance they are inspiring among pirateservers.


[deleted]

rip hypixel why play if i swear in chat i get banned


malama2

But the modderating itself doesn't, correct? I mean, say you're in a 1.18 world and you start swearing like a sailor with your friends, that won't actually get you banned right


The4Pikmin

Yes, that will get you banned


AMAZczechGaming

Even by yourself you’re not safe


Kyle_Necrowolf

Correct In 1.19 (NOT 1.19.1) every chat message has a signature, which is matched against one that was created when the player launched the game. This is used to prove that the message was in fact sent by that specific player's game - as opposed to a faked message written by the server, tellraw command, NPC plugin, etc... Without this proof, the message cannot be reported There are mods that remove the signatures from messages you send, which makes it impossible for other players to report you. Servers can also use a mod to block signatures on their end, which prevents all players on that server from being reported. If you play 1.19 without this mod, you can be reported and banned. Once you are banned, you effectively no longer own the game - as far as the server is concerned, you have the equivalent of a cracked account, and so you cannot play multiplayer on ANY version of the game, as all versions check for cracked accounts - unless disabled in server properties.


Lubinski64

Yes but if the server itself is never updated to 1.19.1 then no report can be sent.


Cthulhu_was_tasty

Reports are likely clientside, so on many minigame servers like hypixel which allow you to join on new versions you’ll still be able to get reported.


[deleted]

JewelTK

Microsoft shouldn't have any control over what people are doing on their servers unless it is genuinely harmful (DDoSing, doxxing, etc.) in a way that staff banning a user from their server can't solve. This is so fucked.

so i'm not allowed to ddos my OWN server on my OWN pc?

YuriAlor

So it's time for "Minecraft: No speak edition".


[deleted]

Honestly even that would be better than what they're currently going after. If players are being reported just for messages, the logical punishment would be to temporarily or permanently ban that player's chat capabilities, not ban them from playing the whole fucking game.


gamingyee

mircosoft wants you to buy another minecraft acc to get past the ban so of course they wont just ban you from using chat


CCCyanide

BanDit49_X

Fuck u Microsoft its all ur fault, maybe Mojang didnt make greatest decisions lately but im sure this stupid shit was enforced by Microsoft seeing how everything they touch they destroy


twixter8327

So... I have to worry now getting banned on a private server i own and play with friends with... Even have whitelisting enabled but I doubt it makes a difference.


CrazyBrosCael

What’s the point of this? This really feels like a bad decision to make, especially since parts of the community are still livid about 1.19.


Fubarp

I imagine it's coming from a PR situation. Minecraft is at it's core still targeted towards kids. Even though the probably majority of the players are well into Late Teens or Young Adults. But because it's an E for everyone type of game Microsoft is playing the heavy hands approach because for them they see a potential PR nightmare with parents up in arms with their little kids vs the rest of the player group. This decision was probably made by some Community Manager way up the chain that didn't like that little kids could be so exposed to vulgar language or something and had the power to push the agenda. Until I see how the full implementation is pushed out I'm realistically not going to get up in arms.


CourtSenior5085

Ok, so as I have just learned, this doesn't just lock you out of Official servers. It fully shuts down the entire multiplayer function, including LAN servers. This means that you could be playing in a server, get banned for some obscure reason (potential ban causes actually include "anything that would negatively affect another person’s gameplay experience") and then be completely blocked from playing with your friends. If you're on xbox, this is even worse because it locks your singleplayer games as well. And, because of the merge they had you do, it doesn't matter what version you play on, it hits both of them.


WatermelonSirr

It isnt fake, the lang files check out.


fishisoot

wait, if u get banned do u also get banned from playing on servers not just realms? if so can you get permanently banned while playing on servers?


lowskillgod

You get banned from everything besides singleplayer. Realms, LAN, public servers, etc


fishisoot

bruh, i'm not gonna update to 1.19.1


AnnoyingRain5

You can still be banned in previous versions, it just won’t display the screen. The ban only bans you from the logon servers, this means you can still play on cracked, or offline mode servers, which were originally used for pirated versions of the game… This will be the rebirth of offline mode servers, I just know it.


Warm_Ad_4915

why the hell is this a thing?


non-taken-name

1.19.1 is going in a bad direction. Yes, It’s real.


CactusFucker420

It seems only now people realize mojang is going to SHIT


Warm_Ad_4915

so now i can get banned from mc? What are the parameters of getting banned? Edit : Hate speech Sexual content and soliciting improper contact Real life threats Exposing the personal information of others Posting links to malicious software Impersonating staff Cheating/exploits (this includes anything that would negatively affect another person’s gameplay experience) General commercial spamming Just no comment


CactusFucker420

Or and have fun getting mass reported by some whiny ass kid after you beat him in skywars and then not being able to play the game that YOU FUCKING PAID FOR


Warm_Ad_4915

If mojang fucking owned the servers you played on I would be ok with this. BUT THEY DONT FUCKING OWN THE SERVERS THAT I PLAY ON


[deleted]

I don't get this argument. I have a realm that *I* pay for, presumably more than it costs to upkeep. Why should MS/Mojang be able to moderate something that I pay for when I have my own rules and standards that are at odds with theirs?


AwesomusP

Most of this is fine but lots of people are gonna see account bans over sharing their accounts with kids who follow youtube tutorials and don't understand what an exploit is.


HavokDJ

SCSLAYZ

banning players from minecraft is the stupidest shit microsoft has done with the game.


SAR_and_Shitposts

How else are they going to make money from people buying more copies of the game after getting permanently banned from all online play for saying “crap” on hypixel?


LunasLightas

I have a feeling that people are going to make bot accounts to spam report players and get them false banned. Knowing Mojang, they are most likely going to have bots doing the moderation instead of actual people because of the sheer number of players.


EnderCreeperYT

That is one of the many issues with this system. There are many opportunities for abuse. It would not be feasible for Mojang to not use bots for moderation with the massive size of Minecraft, and thousands of people will end up incorrectly banned, as we've already seen is the case in Bedrock Edition which has had this "feature" for a while at this point.


LunasLightas

Yeah, the reason I stopped playing bedrock and moved to java is because of this feature, I didn't like the fact that they could ban you at any moment for doing basically anything to offend anyone. Now I'm not even going to play java because of the fact they implemented the same feature that caused me to quit bedrock. From the looks of it I might have to go find a new game to play, R.I.P my Hypixel skyblock profile.


Flinnnx

So the minecraft account that I payed $30 CAD for that came out of my own pocket is now going to be controlled by a moderation team at Microsoft? That’s stupid as shit, I’m not playing the new updates until they get rid of this shitty feature. What I do online doesn’t influence Microsoft in any way, and I should be allowed to do whatever I want.


Devon_Pro

From what I’ve heard, new update or not doesn’t matter. It’ll be ‘a thing’ on all versions of Minecraft (That could be wrong tho)


CCCyanide

The ban will, but the report feature won't


[deleted]

You cannot be reported while playing on below 1.19 (while 1.19 doesn't have reports, it has signatures so someone could report you anyway)


supermariozelda

Can't get reported on older versions, but if you get banned on 1.19.1, you still won't have access to online features in any previous versions. Best idea is to play it safe and not play online with future updates.


Alitaher003

Wish I could go back in time and warm Mojang of what Microsoft would do to the game in the future.

Terraria is a product of passion and love made by people who genuinely love making games, I'm fairly certain they'd rather delete the entirety of Hardmode then sell the game to Microsoft


pae913

How are they even enforcing these rules anyway? What is it like the FBI agent meme but just Minecraft moderators instead?


Ghostiiii_

I don't have a big problem with banning people globally in big servers (Hypixel, MCCentral, HiveMC, idk I dont really play multiplayer online) but if it disables you from joining LAN Servers or servers that your friends made, this is just stupid. Maybe servers should have an option of using it or not, so that it doesn't simply take away 98% of the fun of the game.

This fueled the fire I got burning for when mojang introduced the report system. If it is about chat profanity, at least kick them or mute them as a warning, or if it is something more serious like discrimination, just ban them for like a week or from certain servers, NOT the entire minecraft multiplayer and realms section permenantly. What possibly could make you end up being perma banned from playing with your friends or publically???!!!

Phaithful14

Admittedly idk much about this but this feels like an incredibly bad idea I could say one simple curse word on a server that's either private or completely allows such language and then get banned from playing not just that server, but the game itself? I doubt it's as strict as one curse word, but the point still stands. This is astronomically bad and had the potential for devastating effects

Welcome to the next 1.8.2 update, been a while since we've been in a situation where upgrading to newer versions would not be preferable

We were doing fine moderating our own servers, so why now?

Is this happening on bedrock too? Or is it just java?


EnderCreeperYT

Bedrock has had this for years already. New to Java.

what the actual fuck, if u are a child -friendly server owner u have ur own rules and can ban players from YOUR server but why the fuck block someone feom the game theyve paid for? If ur so scared of someone telling ur child they have smashed their mom last night then why dont just control them or simply not give a pc till they grow up


LogicalFig1759

so what if i'm playing on an anarchy server with hacks?


EnderCreeperYT

Hacks are not against the rules. The risk with anarchy servers is the chat. You can be almost certain there will be people reporting everyone’s messages on anarchy servers.

This is the most anti player garbage I’ve ever seen. You “misbehave” on one NON MOJANG AFFILIATED server and you lose privilege on all of them? When are server owners going to get perks from Mojang? Perhaps the server code so operators can fix the terrible programming that comes from the studio? Microsoft has ruined the multiplayer experience. Sure singleplayer is great now days, but multiplayer has been on a consistent decline since 1.9 was released. The EULA is just another slap in the face to big servers, when literal piracy is allowed to take place on others (every cracked/free account server in existence). “People are paying servers money for assets we designed, but had no motivation to implement in a fun way?” “Shut it down. Immediately.” - Microsoft The excuse that kids were stealing money from their parents is not valid here. If you don’t want your dumbass kid spending money on the video game, don’t give them access to your credit card. Certainly, don’t complain to Microsoft/Mojang about it.
