I play have played on all the us, eu and au servers but they all seem to have the same amount of hackers. lots of hackers turn off there hacks when a mod/sir mod is on so i think there should be some mods that dont hve a red name but can still ban/kick people

Sr. Mods are able to disguise themselves as any player (real or fake), which allows them to ban without people noticing them.

Mods also have the ability to /quit, which broadcasts a false message of them leaving the server, also allowing for unnoticed watching of hackers.

'Ban Scouts' are not needed, would quickly become pointless when people learn who they are, and open up a huge amount of opportunity for abuse.

They also enter lobby's without there name popping up saying
(0) <Sporangia> joined server.

This also makes the hackers not noticeable that a mod has entered the server.

But I always say something like "Hey Spor." so I accidentally break her cover.

I think they can :)
They can't

And hackers and rule breakers should feel as if mods are always watching them. This way they'd stop using hacks or breaking rules cause they're afraid a mod is in game noticing them. If we made people think we were never there, they'd always break rules. If we made them think we were always there, they wouldn't break any rules. In my opinion scout mods are pointless and give people the idea that they can break rules without people noticing.

Also in a sense, normal players are scout mods. They don't have red names and don't seem suspicious but they have the ability to get people who break the rules banned, through the report abuse section.
