    reading through the T&C of the server, the only thing that is clear is that
    vac hacking = ban
    if someone were to actively attack mobs getting vac hack = ban
    if someone in the party is hacking and the non hacking player continues to benefit from the hacker's activities = ban

    but what are the rules regarding maps that were vacc'd by hackers but there are no mapowners or players (possibly hackers) at the same map
    like if there is one channel available at a training spot, but there is only a huge mob of mob that has been vac hacked onto a single platform, and there is nobody around
    are we allowed to clear the mob ourselves?
    do we have to call in a GM to reset the map?
    wait for a server check to clear the map?
    do we have to capture video evidence?

    My advice is that you should clear the mobs yourself only if you want to use the map in that channel. Don't actively change channel looking for vacced mobs to kill, and don't kill vacced mobs in a map that you don't want to train in.

    Yeah unfortunately a lot of the beginner maps in my experience had this problem. I personally just CC'd if I ever came across them.

    worst feeling is going through a portal and character getting smacked by mob that shouldn't be there in the first place. feelsbadman-.-'
