Hello Tributes!

Over the past 7 weeks, we have been holding the Winter EU Cleansweeps in an attempt to get rid of as many pesky hackers on the EU network as possible. And in the end, we succeeded. Along with the new hacking policy regarding a first offense permanent ban, and the recent MCGamer 1.8 update, we were able to significantly decrease the amount of hackers on the EU network, and on the other regions as well. Therefore, we have decided to end the Operation Cleansweep EU (also known as the Ew Clensweps) to give our participants a break and simply because our main goal has been achieved: decreasing the amount of hackers.

At this point in time, EU is able to stand on her own again and fight back those hackers. Therefore, we wanted to focus some more on other regions, such as US and CA, and we decided to organize Cleansweeps for these regions as well. Are you interested in joining? Then you can find further information here: http://www.minecraftsurvivalgames.com/threads/us-ca-operation-cleansweep.167666/.

In case we notice a big increase on the EU network, our Cleansweep staff team will raise up and swing her ban hammer again to sweep them off the servers once more.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

In previous operations, this has proven to be a successful option in eliminating hackers from the EU network; however, we are always looking into ways to make the operation even more successful. If you have any ideas for future EU Cleansweeps, feel free to PM AlpakaWhacker, Scott , Axanite, mfungamer and / or myself (Nephilim). Regarding the US/CA Cleansweeps, feel free to PM Col_StaR , Jodimo ,ChandelleMC , Scott or AlpakaWhacker. In order to catch more hackers, we organize 2 hour cleansweeps during the peak times on the according network and sometimes an impromptu sweep which would last for an hour on average.

Statistics!

We have released weekly threads listing statistics of the according week during the Winter season. These threads can be found here:

Shoutouts and Rewards!

First of all, and you are probably tired already of me saying this over and over again, but I want to thank every single one of you who attended a Cleansweep session so much. Without your help, we wouldn't have achieved what we have today and you guys can be proud and say that you have helped resolve EU's biggest problem until now, the hackers. This is to both the Staff and the Community! <33

However, there were some people who have showed exemplary service during the Cleansweeps and therefore, they deserve a shoutout and a little thank you gift in the form of a forums medal.

It was a really fun time and it is great to see that EU does not need a Cleansweep anymore which means it can stand on its own feet, but i am going to miss it...
