there might be a way to use scoreboards and block detection so that if anyone removes a credit sign or smth you can do this to them. That way you can evade Steveee using alts or force him to leave credit in, could also use a chunk loader and put them in a random chunk far away and keep them loaded so he can't find the commands and delete them without going to massive lengths, not sure how you'd start it however.

[@quintp7010]

Good idea honestly, if sign is removed. Execute command blocks

[@FurryVile]

i agree with this

[@MekrinGD]

Better, make a scoreboard that says something like "made by purpledragonnuke, do not copy this", and make the world softlock if you break it

I think a great idea would be to force a boss bar of a named wither, with your links and such, on all players who download the world, and if that wither is killed, then a command block detects it and activates the soft lock. Same could be done with a scoreboard with set display on the right of the screen

[@orisinil7603]

That is so simple, yet effective. This is really a creative idea to ban specific people that really annoyed me when I play in my world.

[@Bansed]

You can easily work around this by uploading the world to a server and then disabling command blocks

[@zeffzee2479]

Oh no

[@Hubcat_]

You can also redownload the world then use an alt

[@zeffzee2479]

This is annoying and could mean that the world download would be member exclusive which would be really sad

[@transbianyan]

Or world edit and only copy the build

[@TRD6932]

Steveee is too dumb for that.

[@ArcadeMystereo]

I have to say, you're creativity knows no bounds xD That system is genius but as you probably know there are some flaws with it and here are the two major ones I found: 1. Steveee can just redownload the world and instantly use an alt account to avoid being banned 2. He could just upload the world to a server and disable command blocks But I got an idea for that Use a datapack, that will completely remove the second problem because those are activated regardless whether or not command blocks are enabled (at least I am pretty sure about it, I never tried it though). In that datapack you can put all the commands to check if -Steveee- the redstone goblin is there and then activate a sequence of commands that do exactly what you did. Futhermore you can do something to prevent him from stealing credits even on an alt account, just let a command repeat that shows something like "Build by purpledragonnuke" in the action bar, and that will in his video unless he blurs that out... if he is gonna blur it, then you might as well put that in the title or subtitle instead of the action bar, sure it will obstruct the view, so I would go for the subtitle, but that can be used as an advantage, since he'd have to blur an important part of the screen out and you know... who would do that. Now there are still two things I did not mention, unavoidable flaws. 1. You made a video about this... so he will know how to avoid getting banned from the world, and I am sure you thought of that so I hope you have a plan B in mind... 2. Just deleting the datapack will do the same as using your system and disabling command blocks... So basically, there is no real way around these, the best you can probably do is to implement a different system, like the one I proposed with a datapack, and delete my comment (and I suppose others probably proposed similar solutions, so theirs as well) so he can't read it (or them), and then hope and pray that he is too stupid to know about datapacks since he does not know how to properly do redstone either... Sorry for this wall of text, I just HAD to point out the things you can improve in order to stop Steveee! Oh and if anything is unclear just ask about it. Cheers!

[@BusterBrown1217]

He has stole datapacks in the past so I doubt datapacks would work.

[@jailman]

idea: give all players an achivement when they join so that their name appears in chat and then revoke the achivement so that rejoining the world makes the message popup again

[@GearShift]

You could also add a repeating command block that detects if there is any other block where your sign is supposed to be, then if they break it, it will trigger all of this. Just have a always active repeating command block saying /fill (coordinates) (coordinates) air replace !sign. Then just put your chain command blocks coming out of it. I’m not in the game right now but I’m 99% sure this works. You could also add a scoreboard that has a setdisplay set as list that says the thing was made by you or a Redstone clock that every once in a while uses /tellraw and says that it was made by you. There are ways you can make sure these are unbreakable so the copier won’t be able to turn it off. I’m a command block KZbinr 😎😎😎

[@matthewparker9276]

That could hurt people genuinely looking around the contraption, though, especially if they accidentally break the block the sign is placed on.

[@tp6335]

Could you have 2 commandblocks that always recreate each other if they are destroyed like virus processes?

[@TheRedCap]

good god the content theft problem is so bad we have Minecraft Map DRM now

[@_thresh_]

Or you could just make a command block to constantly put a message above the hotbar giving credit, and also make the command block self-replicate (one way is with repeating structure block loops) so its nearly impossible to remove the credit, and also add a command block that basically soft locks the world if the credit does get removed and also make that self-replicating just in case and if that gets removed just nuke the build so it's impossible to remove the credit. Not sure how to detect blocks being broken but it would probably work

There is actually a pretty interesting and simple way to instantly crash someone's game. If you were to use the command " /execute at PLAYERNAME run particle elder_guardian ~ ~ ~ 0 0 0 1 2147483647 ", elder guardian effects would spawn at the integer limit, which of course crashes the game (and it also works without causing any sort of harm to the world itself).

I thought I had lost the world forever- eventually I downgraded the world one version, which wiped out command block data (an effect I had observed elsewhere).

[@lucykitsune4619]

[@dinhero21]

There are some ways you can create "technically" escapable crashes (if you had a good enough PC with yottabytes of RAM and a yottabyte clock speed CPU) by using commands such as: execute as @e as @e as @e as @e as @e as @e as @e as @e run summon marker (every tick, the amount of existing entities will be increases by the amount of existing entities to the 8th power) There are also ways of "legitimately" crashing your game, these are rarer but I was able to find some experimenting. Useally they boil down to setting a value to something it was never supposed to have or having too much data. For the "too much data" case, you could use some data storage manipulation: data modify storage crash array set value [[]] data modify storage crash array append from storage crash array

you could modify the world data so that it already includes player data for the thieves, so for example theres already a position and gamemode defined for a thief. you can set the position really far away and the gamemode to spectator. that way you dont need commands and its harder to fix it

[@mitchib1440]

What i would personally do is have a sign in various places of the build that link to your channel, and have a similar system so that it's constantly checking to see if the sign is there and has the right text on it. And if it doesn't, then it activates all of this stuff to whoever is the nearest player. Basically we're making DRM for minecraft worlds. I love it.

So I had a list of steamid's belonging to their community and I banned them from every server that used my maps on a button press, commonly this was a obvious button.
