Player:AwesomeAG99
AwesomeAG99 was a player on Xandaris who was banned by lionclad_ for using the Meteor hack client. He befriended PluckedHorseHair early on, traveled to The End, and was one of the few players to earn End-related advancements before his ban. He died four times in a single session and was unbanned via RCON each time before being temporarily banned for cheating. After being unbanned, he was killed by an Iron Golem while griefing a nearby base.

Timeline
Friendship with PluckedHorseHair
AwesomeAG99 first appeared in chat asking if anyone had beaten the game yet. He quickly teamed up with PluckedHorseHair, with the two joining a voice call together:
"wait plucked we are a team right :)"— AwesomeAG99
"just the two of us"— AwesomeAG99
He was 200,000 blocks from the stronghold he was trying to reach ("imma rage quit... I was going to the wrong one :(") and messaged PluckedHorseHair to confirm coordinates.
Anti-Cheat Flags
AwesomeAG99 was kicked twice for "floating too long" — a fly-hack detection flag:
- First kick at 17:53
- Second kick at 18:15, while traveling in the Nether
These were early warning signs that he was cheating.
Four Deaths
| # | Cause | Context |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Slain by Piglin Brute | In the Nether |
| 2 | Suffocated in a wall | Respawn spawned players in a wall |
| 3 | Slain by barryjeans using cheats | PvP kill near spawn |
| 4 | Suffocated in a wall | Was respawned in a wall |
After each death, AwesomeAG99 was unbanned via RCON to continue playing.
Reaching The End
Despite the deaths and kicks, AwesomeAG99 reached The End and earned two significant advancements:
- The End? — Entered The End
- The City at the End of the Game — Found an End City
He also earned Local Brewery and Cover Me with Diamonds during this session.
The Ban
At 21:07, lionclad_ teleported to AwesomeAG99 in The End to observe him. Five minutes later, lionclad_ sent a private warning:
"Im keeping an eye on you"— lionclad_ → AwesomeAG99
At 21:17, lionclad_ teleported to him again for a second observation. AwesomeAG99 appeared to notice someone watching, saying in chat: "says the guy flying throught the air."
At 21:22, lionclad_ issued the ban:
/ban AwesomeAG99 using metior hack client
The "metior" is a misspelling of Meteor Client, a well-known Minecraft cheat client.

Trivia
- Was the only player banned specifically for using a named hack client (Meteor).
- The two "suffocated in a wall" deaths show the mods not working properly
- Was unbanned via RCON 4 times in one session before the temporary
- PluckedHorseHair, his ally, was also targeted by other players — though for different reasons.
- His chat line "says the guy flying throught the air" was likely directed at lionclad_ observing him in spectator mode.
- Despite cheating, he still died to a Piglin Brute and to another player (barryjeans, who was later found to be cheating).
- Currently no longer in the banned-players.json file — suggesting he may have been pardoned at some point, though he has not returned. IM BACK
