Suggestion:
IP Tracking and Linked Bans

Detailed description:
Sorry But this form will be long but i will try to explain how it works , Ok then lets start this journey. :)

How it Works:

IP Tracking: When you join our server, we keep a record of your IP address. We will store the Ip in the system , this helps us know who's using the server. We only keep this information until the Ip is changed before deleting it. Deletion is option but it help The system to be clean.

Linked Bans: If someone breaks the rules and gets banned, we remember their IP address for a short time. It's like putting a label on their account. So, if anyone else tries to log in from that same place (or IP address), they'll also be banned, no matter what account they're using.

LOOP HOLES

Every good face has a bad side , on this case there is a too. If a plyer from the same Ip (like a brother/sister ) got banned so the other persons gets banned too which is not good.

HOW TO PREVENT IT:

To prevent this loop hole ask on Joining (A msg in chat) asking that they have a other a other account too and show the accounts name with it. and display If this account is not then let them do a in game command this will solver 95% of the linked ban issues . if feeling trouble fell free to talk to me. 😊

Reason(s):
As Pika Network is a very big server (biggest in the field) A lot of players like to hack on there Alt accounts after getting banned , but they can still enjoy the perks of there main accounts and taking advantage of pika network soft Ip ban. with this new system we can make the server more fair to play and enjoy .Identifying whether two Minecraft accounts are being used from the same device is crucial for maintaining a fair and enjoyable gaming environment for all players.

In multiplayer servers like yours's, players compete or collaborate with each other, and the actions of individual players can significantly impact the experience of others. When multiple accounts are operated from the same device, it can lead to unfair advantages, such as coordinated rule violations, unfair trading, or monopolization of resources. By detecting and addressing such instances, server administrators can uphold the principles of fairness, integrity, and equal opportunity for all players. This helps foster a positive community atmosphere where players can enjoy the game without fear of exploitation or abuse.
Thx a lot reading this from and feel free to like , it may help in improving the server .

Example(s):
(not promoting) kingcraft server is the best example of it .

i know its long but i have to explain it properly
This would stop alot of cheaters from cheating by creating alts.But as you said in the ''Loop Holes'' it wouldnt be too good if 1 person gets banned then the other person in the same house or location also gets banned which would be preety bad but if they manage to tackle this its a W system.

Hello Gurnoor88,

Thank you for your interest in creating a suggestion to improve the server. We are always doing our best to make the server a better place for everyone.
However, we have eventually decided to deny your suggestion due to the following reason(s):
  • Too much unnecessary effort and we just unban players that gets ban due to matching with banned IP's.
