Accused Players: Staff Member, I suspect Livid/CRH244
Accusation: Staff Abuse
Affected Players: Me, JJ_Jackie
Time Occured: Approximately 1300 hours today (June 7, 2019), Pacific Standard. 19:30 logblock time;
Location: My In Progress base, Approximately 1 million blocks in the nether away (8 mil overworld) from spawn
What Happened: CRH made his way to my in progress base, possibly with staff assistance in TPing, and set a home there, then robbed me all of my items stored there. Furthermore, when Jackie and I got on and discovered this, CRH took advantage of this to kill Jackie.
Why I suspect Staff were involved:
The Flight out to my in progress base, takes at minimum 8 hours (see below). CRH said that to find the location, he saw a person there with the dynmap. Because of how far out the base is, I am able to keep track of who is there. The list of people who I specifically invited to the location are : JJ_Jackie, xLuBu(Yvette) and ascension101. CRH told me it was not a staff member who he saw that far out, and Jackie has kept herself hidden on dynmap the whole time, leaving ascension. Ascension was tp'ed out a little over 20 hours before the incident. if my memory serves. Through interviews with other staff, as well as checking of my own logs gathered through IRC, I have reasonable doubt that he had the 8 hours to make the flight. Therefore staff TP'ing may have been involved. Further evidence of staff involvement in raiding my base can be found in the fact that Livid, a staff member who, prior to this incident, I had never revealed the location to, can be found taking some of the items from the chests, according to log block.
Sound Evidence that the nether flight takes 8 hours:
using a client side world of mine, I set up two rings exactly 100 blocks apart. On one I set up a chain of command blocks that, when it detects a player inside the ring, it sets the time to 0, then enables the daylight cycle. The second ring I set up, when it detected a player, stopped the daylight cycle. Because the daylight cycle is measured in ticks, of which there are 20 in a second, I now have a measurement of time to travel between the rings accurate to .05 seconds. Then, using an auto clicker, I flew between the hoops, firing a firework every tick (20 per second) to ensure I was traveling at max speed. after 10 passes, recording the time to travel each time, I had an extremely consistent travel time of 60 ticks, or 3 seconds. thus, the max speed is 33.3 blocks per second, translating to 8 hours to travel 1 million blocks. thus, short of speed hacks, there is no way to get out there faster without pre-existing infrastructure (piston bolts travel faster, but require lots of time to build)
Information Request:
Can someone with access please check the logs and tell me what the situation is here? I imagine they could easily resolve this situation by confirming or denying staff involvement in tping CRH out to my base.
Why I think this deserves a report: Aside from being a little irritated over having my stuff stolen (including some books that I only had one copy of) If staff are involved, this is a case of staff abuse as a staff member is assisting CRH in pvp (he killed jackie) as well as assisting CRH in stealing.
