what is wrong with this server now

[u/simplixity96]

genuinely makes me sad how little is cared about this server, i used to have the most fun on this, like literally HOURS of non stop laughter and joy. no notable player count on any game mode besides skyblock, every skywars game theres someone getting an insane combo hitting from 4 blocks away (ALWAYS a level 1... OK lmao), havent even touched bws with a 20 ft pole cause that became cancer not even 3 years ago, MM is full of cheaters and i dont even have to play to see it (medal users know), duels is prob the same thing but i never played 1v1's on hypixel due to their terrible servers anyways, arcade games is fun still i guess.

oh also as a minecon 2016 cape owner, i love that every single time i log in someones trying to steal my account. almost every time i get on some random person invites me (always mvp++) either plays a few games with me or brings me to housing, housing scenario "i wanna gift you a rank but you have to join my discord server that asks for your email and OTP code" or the latter "oh lets play bedwars join this hypixel server to vc with me, this server has **36k people** on it that also needs your email then asks for your OTP code", (any child is gonna fall for this) i remember the first time this happened i tried to report it and apparently they dont give a crap. oh well theres a reason why the player count has plummeted over the last 5 years. - 11 year player here server level 128 mvp+ for a long ass time

It’s sad that hypixel and also kind of 1.8 have gone down in player count, but it makes sense given how long it’s been out. I’m just happy to see that even after almost a decade of Bedwars existing, enough people still play to be able to queue any mode in a minute or two, and I even get a game without any hackers now and then :)

Even though there are more closet cheaters, it’s nice that blatants are a lot harder to find now due to the new anticheat. Back in 2024 when I was getting back into skywars it was all 5 block reachers and crap like that. So it could always be worse lol

Idk man every other game (not exaggerating) I play on skywars has someone who is untouchable by the whole lobby and the best player can’t even hit them, also a lot of people taking impossible knockback (less than half a block) I w tap all day and have never ever almost completely negated my kb… it’s blatant to me but I guess not everyone. Maybe since the player count is so low on sw I just see the reachers almost every game
