Hacked Clients are clients made for Minecraft that offer cheats (known as hacks) for players that are not part of the Minecraft's vanilla game. No hacked client website or company is affiliated with Mojang, similar to most mods. On most servers, using hacked clients is a punishable offense and may get players banned (by either admins or Anti-Cheat) from the specific server, depending on server's policies and rules. They can give players unfair advantages over others in mini games or gamemodes for things like combat and basic movement. This leads to bad sportsmanship, cheating, and rendering the games less entertaining, with the exception of the hacker being the only one entertained.
