Anticheat
So. I had Vacan (Spartan) as my anticheat, now with the whole chaotic shitshow, spigot removed the plugin, and now that the dev wont transfer licenses to any other site, i dont wanna buy it again. Is there any good alternatives?

Best by far is Polar. Vulcan is alright, Grim is the best free.
Also there's Vulcan and LightningGrim (fork)
Yeah, Polar is best but there is no way I am paying 15$/month just for a anticheat
Being subscription-based already killed it for me, there is no way I am paying every month.
Ok, but it might be worth it if your server is bigger and makes more money than you would spend on the ac. You are right tho that for most it doesnt make sense
I guess, what happened to Spartan anyway?
I only have a small private server, so GrimAC is what I use, but right now before doing any research, if I were to use a paid one it would be Vulcan
Bro $15 isnt anything
Plus its made subscription based because their cloud checks cost and because what happened with old enterprise anticheats is they got abandoned after some time as no constant revenue meant no motivation for the developer
Yeah for me that is 1/3 of my money every month
I guess. Just isn’t it for me
How do u run a server w $45
💀
Don't make a server if u can't afford it bruh
It was taken over by new owner and the new owner changed it to a subscription based plugin, as well as selling individual checks, then spigot removed the thing and the previous owner took owner again because of the subscription and now the owner is trying to paint spigot as the bad guy.
120€/year
That’s why I wanna self host, cheaper long term
Long term = 6 years ish lol
As yoou said in your other thread
$500 server
that alone is 4 years of hosting
but then you need to pay an internet line for the server
$15-100/m depending on your provider
and then electricity
$5-50/m
and then ddos protection
$30-200/m
And in 7 years when it becomes profitable finally the hardware will be more than outdated and you will need to buy more
Don’t have to pay that just yet
Only server
And maybe electricity
You do tho
40mbps will lag out the server everytime you upload a file or similar so it needs a separate internet line
Ddos protection you also do because it is home hosted, it's very unwise to expose your ip (and location) to the Internet, not to mention 40mbps that can be saturate with anything
Normally hosting services provide some ddos protection, which 99% of the time is very bad but still can defend against small or basic attacks, in your case your provider has no protection at all and your uplink is extremely small, which means any kid can even take it down from their own computer without even needing a booter
we now transfer licenses for free
Wait that's the real dev oh hi. 😂
