Any good Anti-Bot plugins to stop this?
One of my backend servers is experiencing this bot raiding. Is there any plugins out there that can suppress these messages? And/or stop it all together?

not really unfortunately
let me find the really long thread where people were talking about it
Alright
Thanks
yes.'
use pufferfish/purpur
is one option
EpicGuard plugin is another option ig
Didnt know that using purpur would stop it
Can I just simply switch software to purpur? Or do I have to upodate all the plugins when I switch? Or?
simply switch
it has a pufferfish patch that has a option to supress disconnects from null ids
Alr!!
Is that option already active when you use purpur or is it something that that has to be setup? I using purpur and I’m still getting visits from the infamous cuute
its a config
pufferfish.yml
supress-null-disconnects
Ty!
I don’t see it in pufferfish.yml or purpur.yml :/. Tho I could be missing something. I’m updated to the most recent version
they should have
weirdly
are u 1.20.1?
Mhm
can u give me a sec to test+
Yeah, no worries. I got plenty of time
oh
seems like purpur didnt take the entire patch with em
pufferfish is the only one with it atm then
Should I switch to pufferfish then?
if u arent using the purpur options i would
pufferfish imo is more stable

It details how to setup fail 2 ban for a server, which would block ips that fail to connect multiple times in a short period of time. This is diffrent from just ignoring it, like previously mentioned.
99% of people arent using vps/dedis/selfhosting
just a fyi
Stats? I have seen a lot of people who are self-hosting either on other hardware or their own pc since it is usually the cheapest.
Ik in this case, OP is a WitherHosting customer, so likely wouldn't be relevant
Ah, didn't see this, my bad
I self host. I appreciate the guide, it’s very helpful
Does this just strictly hide them from the console or will it actually prevent validating the player
"supress"
so just hide
afaik
That’s what I figured
I’m guessing they still eat up ur auth limit and can delay others from logging in if they spam too hard (I think this is how it works? Correct me if I’m wrong)
they login once every 2 minutes
if ur getting auth limited by that
u got something seriously wrong
This is generalization for spam/bots, not specifically the cuute guy
