    For the modern versions mostly. 1.8.9 has pvp and minigames where cheating is more similar to cheating in a FPS kinda game where it actually harms people. Also during the $1 sale Minecraft was in the middle of a population boom (iirc due to Dream getting popular) so the moderation was overwhelmed. Here’s an example of what cheating looks like

      Wow didn’t know it turned into more than a block builder. I’m going to have to revisit the game lol last time I played was like 8 years ago now.

        Yeah, there’s a bunch of new stuff. I got it when it was in beta or something back in 2011 or so, and my kids wanted to try it, so I dug out my old credentials. It has come a long way from when I last played in the mid 2010s.

        It’s still largely a block builder, but there’s a ton more complexity to it now, even on vanilla MC. My understanding is that most servers run a bunch of mods, and there are a ton of crazy mods out there these days, so it’s more a platform than anything at this point.
