There is a way to stop the iron fist one, but taking out Iron swords form the lobby.

The glitch does come from Minecraft, but MCSG can easily get rid of most of the abusers. The way the glitch works is that a player must have a weapon in hand when leaving the server (this includes purposely leaving and the game ending). Minecraft then thinks that the player is still holding the weapon, therefore creating iron fists.

Now, some wise guys figured out an exploit to get it every game. They join a lobby, grab an iron sword, leave the server, and rejoin. Now, the server thinks that the player still has the iron sword they grabbed. This is how most people get the glitch; the other way is winning a game, then rejoining the same server.

So yes, the glitch is technically a Minecraft bug, but MCSG can take measures to make the glitch unexploitable, by removing the lobby swords.
That's why those smart asses leave and re-join like 7 times. Lol

It doesn't just annoy me when I'm killed with it, it annoys me when I get it. The other day, I was playing sg4, and I punched some guy who was going my route, only to discover I had the fist glitch and killed him in 2 shots. I was mad at myself, and the glitch. I absolutely hate it so much, and the game I got it, I hadn't even won my previous game...

However, in the Developer Q & A Session a few days ago, the developers said there was another way to exploit this glitch that I guess didn't require swords, which is why they didn't bother removing them. If swords were removed, people will find out how to use this other method.

Also, doesn't this thread go in the Guides section? :p Not sure if FAQ's qualify.

So I've asked around about this other method, and none of my friends on Skype know about it. I think removing the swords would make most of the abusers go away.

For the diamond fist glitch they need to fix the inventory clearing. That's all I'm saying.

They already clear everyone's inventory in clean up, but the glitch still happens. You just don't see the inventories being cleared.

If you don't know how to do the glitch by now then you're living under a rock.

Everybody on the forums plays MCSG quite frequently, so I really, really, really don't think it would hurt discussing it here. Besides, what's stopping somebody who wants to know about it, from asking somebody else in-game?
