- Suspected macro-er + I also added him/her so I can check up on the player easily
-Terminator(second on the panning scoreboard) warned me about him/her. Thanks to him for telling me.
-This guy suddenly had 6k panning materials out of no where - I check the scoreboards everyday, especially panning

What makes it even more suspicious is that the player constantly changed his/her name to something short. They also checked the option 'appear offline' and 'appear off map' which isn't solid evidence, but it suggests something.

Here's a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qL8F...ature=youtu.be
As you can see in this video, I managed to track down the person. Strangely, he/she was located in an isolated area before our last encounter.
In the video, you'll see me and a random person standing there which is also me as i'm using the account to record the suspected macro-er.
In the video, you'll see me:
- kill her/him 3-4 times - and he/she is completely oblivious to what's going on until he/she possibly recognizes me.
-She comes back again, but I think she ignores my alt - and thinks my main acc is gone.
- At around 1:45 in the video, she begins to pan. This is possibly my strongest evidence because she probably 'activated' her macro within the water; and you'll see her moving as if she was panning, but in the deep area.
-Last bit of the video I show the scoreboard etc and her profile.

OK. Some may argue it's not macro, some totally no idea but please discuss

There simply weren't any staff members online, or staff members with a suitable timezone. I reported; nothing happened. I searched my friends-list and the player database for deputies; i didn't find anyone online.

So yeah. It is new years, so that might've been the cause of the inactivity. But there are only about 2 people with that timezone, and they are SaintNate and SpotzyCreedz(my own knowledge, correct if i'm wrong) - both were offline. They are great people, don't get me wrong - but it would've been better if there were more staff members around this time. Or at-least a Staff Contact list so I can actually check, and other players too if they had any problems.

Macroing - Panning
Anyone, even an 8 year old could macro. But Xenice... duh! Report them if they are - Oh, I forgot - no one to check my report. D Well, it's basically impossible to prevent this apart from having more people moderating the server.

My idea to prevent macro-ing:
-Have some sort of panning bag, container, jar or whatever; and when you pan, the minerals go in there but it can only fit 10 minerals - and you have to manually empty the jar within your inventory and it would add up normally from there. This ensures the player is actually panning legitimately, and if they were to macro - they'd need to check every few minutes constantly just so they can empty the panning jar.

The panning jars, containers - bag (whatever you want to call it) could have a durability too - and it breaks after carrying certain amounts of minerals.

Here's an example:
-Just a random player panning, instead of their panned minerals going into the inventory straight away - it goes in their mineral jar(which can only fit 10-20 minerals)
-If they wanted to carry on panning, they have to empty the jar into their inventory, and repeat the process - but eventually the jar would break and they would need to buy a new one.
-You can only buy 1 jar at a time

Another little idea is instead of just randomly panning away, the person panning would need to look for sparkles in the water and start panning there.

From a macro-ers perspective, it would be a pain since they'd need to check constantly on their device so they can empty it and start panning.
