DonutSMP Anti-Cheat 2026: What Gets You Banned (& What Doesn't)

Nobody wants to lose their account. DonutSMP runs a strict anti-cheat, and there's a lot of confusion about what actually gets you banned. Here's a clear breakdown of what triggers bans in 2026 — and, just as importantly, what doesn't.

What actually gets you banned

The anti-cheat targets anything that gives an unfair mechanical advantage:

• Combat hacks — killaura, reach, aimbot
• Movement hacks — fly, speed, no-fall
• X-ray — mining straight to ores and diamonds
• Auto-clickers / macros beyond allowed limits
• Duping — glitching items to duplicate them

These are detected server-side and result in bans.

What doesn't get you banned

A lot of players worry about things that are actually fine:

• Approved client mods — performance and QoL mods (see our allowed mods guide)
• AFK farming at spawners and farms, within the auto-clicker rules
• Trading and buying/selling coins and items with other players

The truth about buying coins and items

The big question: does buying coins get you banned?

The server's rules technically restrict real-money trading, so there's always a small inherent risk with any purchase. The difference is how it's delivered. Sketchy sellers deliver in ways that look suspicious — huge instant transfers from flagged accounts, same IP, duped coins. That's what gets flagged.

A safe store does it differently:

• Coins and items are legit-farmed by real players — never duped
• Delivery comes through clean alt accounts on rotating IPs — nothing links to your main
• You're never asked for your password — only your IGN
• If your account is ever actioned because of the delivery, a good store re-ships to a new account free

That's why thousands of orders go through without issues. See what Donut Depot stocks →

How to stay safe overall

• Don't use hacked clients — ever
• Only use approved mods
• Buy from a store that delivers cleanly, like Donut Depot
