Cheater Policy

• The Minecraft: Bedrock Edition community works on a very strict no-cheater policy.
  • This stems from our rather lax proof rules and the assumption that speedrunning is an inherently trust-based competition.
• Minor infractions or general suspicion around a runner and/or run may result in said runner being placed on our suspicious players list.
  • This implies that runs from said runner will be studied in far more depth than the typical run.
  • The runner may also have additional restrictions placed upon them, such as the requirement to show all perspectives in cooperative runs.
• Serious offences will result in a permanent leaderboard ban and the removal of all previous runs.
• While we do not keep track of every speedrunner ever, if we do find that a player has cheated in a game outside of Bedrock Edition, action will be taken.
  • Players caught cheating in a game outside of the Minecraft series are generally placed on the suspicious players list but allowed to submit runs.
  • Players caught cheating in other games within the Minecraft series, such as Java Edition and Legacy Edition, will generally be banned from the leaderboards.

Bannable Offences

The following offences may warrant a leaderboard ban:

• Intentional fabrication of a run.
• The use of any sort of external program or cheat in order to gain an advantage.
• Submission of runs set by other players under your own name.
• The use of alternate accounts on the leaderboards.
  • The alternate account will always be banned; however, moderators reserve the right to ban the player’s main account too.
