What are some of your favorite excuses for op and what do you do about these spammers?

You just need basic english, some brain and some charm and you can get staff-position, operator, whatever in a day..

FBI is not gonna bypass proxies for a minecraft server, or a lone person. Unless it is a huge business that has a lot of money ongoing. All DDoS threats are not false, they can use a booter, buy a vpn. Maybe even dual vpn to make it even more impossible to find them. DDoS can't be defended from, it's unstoppable. However it is not untraceable.
It is possible that your server host has some kind of ddos protection. Which means something like Prolexic, with small hosts this is very unlikely.

no okay heres what to do, -no-

To everyone who has some noob that says "Give me op or I DDoS" Here's what you do, or at least what the owner of a server I play on did:
-Get their IP from files
-Use GeoIP to find where they live
-Tell them you found out where they live
-Threaten to contact their parents
Otherwise
-If they threaten to DDoS you, inform them that it's illegal. If they don't care, tell them you have their IP and that you can forward it to the FBI.

Proxies, though.

Do you really think someone who is ~11 years old would being using a proxy? Possibly, but unlikely.
EDIT:
Well if someone set one up for them probably, but you could probably put a scare into them

Best one I remember went like this (I am a operator on that server)
*Player joined*
Player: "Hello I am from PMC and have come to review your server, can I have op?"
Me: "You realize that trick is old, right?"
Player: "What trick?"
Me: "You are like the 20th person this month"
Player: "Oh...."
Player: "Can I have op anyways?"
Me: "No...."
At that point he basically raged at me in chat and told me how he'll get a bunch of people together to grief the server and left...
...1 and a half year later I am still waiting for him
I just love trolling wannabe-griefers before I ban them

DDOS the buggers

one time i was a staff at a pixelmon server (builder), and i was also in teamspeak. so some guy said they were from pmc and they needed op to inspect the server properties. so i said to a moderator (who wasnt in teamspeak) and told everyone on teamspeak "im going to get evil on this guy". so then i said "im from pmc as well!" he dropped the f bomb and left the whole team speak channel was lighting up with laughter and everyone was in the chat was loling I dont think he was ever coming back.

Dude they don't even need OP use essentials /fly <Name>

Incase you didn't know, PMC doesn't do server reveiws. Don't believe anybody that comes on and asks for OP/Admin/Mod/GM to reveiw the server.

I knew, there's a whole twitter post by PMC about it.

One of my favorites (literally happened):
Let's just say the "reviewer" was named Joe.
(He was msging me, not saying it out loud in chat)
Joe joined the game.
Me: Welcome
Joe: I'm from PlanetMinecraft, and I came tor review the server. Could I have op?
Me: You are? What's your username on PMC?
Joe: Joebman87124.
Me: I looked it up. That name doesn't exist.
Joe: Ok, fine. I can't actually tell you what my name is.
Me: Why not? Your parents won't let you or something? Why not?
Joe: I don't know, I just can't.
Me: So you don't know why you can't tell me?
Joe: Nope
Me: .....
Joe: But I swear I am!
*this goes on for a bit*
Me: ....
Joe: I swear on a stack of bibles I am!
Me: Let me get this straight: you don't know why you can't tell me your username.
Joe: Nope.
Me: ...........................................
Joe: Okay fine, I'm fake. Tried that on a few servers and it actually worked
Joe: Can we be friends?
Me: Um...
*yeah, you get the picture whoever's reading this*
*he asks about the friends stuff for a bit, I said yes, idk why*
Joe left the game.

Carrots are awesome.

By far the best one is where players pretend to be in creative so when you /gamemode them it puts them into creative XD

Just mute them, or ban them. Depends on the occasion.

When someone does that on the server I moderate on, here is how it goes
/ban ??? Impersonation
And then their banned for life.
The. End.

My friends brother kept on getting angry whenever we deopped him. Well, not in the chat, but at his sister. Even when we banned him he wouldn't stop bugging his sister so we had to unban him for her sake.
But we put him in a jail that was pretty much death. He left the server and never came back on.

They say "I'm from PMC, give me op so I can review your server!"
I say "Sure I mopping you right now!"
So then I permaban them, with the reason "OMG so sorry typo I meant to op"

I'm tempted to go onto a random server and say "Don't op me. I'm from PMC, but op isn't for random players like me :3" and see what happens o.o
They'll probably not OP you. Or they'll think you're trying to use reverse psychology on them, which is also pretty transparent.
But not everyone, its possible I could say that and confuse someone .o. but yeah if I did get opped I'd say, "No thank you ._. /deop Moonlight_Pawz" xD. Also I suck at being a psycho .o. Ask everyone, they'll agree.

Back in the day when I staffed way too many servers, we'd deal with the PMC excuse all the time. I'd always have fun with them though. I'd say we needed to put them on a probational period while we verify their PMC status. Then we'd leave them in jail for an hour or so while we swore up and down that they'd get OP if they were patient. Then we'd pretend to be completely inept with commands to piss them off just a little more. Good times.

When someone says it, everyone on the server but the staff start laughing our heads off. Then, the server staff says, "Oh, we've got a special place for people like you!"
The player is like, "Oh yeah, sweet!"
The staff jails them, and the server I play on's jail has dispensers in it so you can start the prisoner on fire, drown them, shoot them with eggs, snowballs, and arrows, etc.

Rule #1 of "reviewing servers": Review the server in secret. Do not let anyone know you are reviewing it, as the people on that server will act nicer than they really are.
Rule #2: Review the server from a new player's point of view, as you aren't reviewing it for OPs, but for fellow, non-admin players.

Well, at least only kids who are new to Minecraft use that excuse now. Everyone used to say it before, but now they've moved on to other excuses. Like "Give me OP or I'll DDos you", as if they know how to do that.
I'll hold the opinion that people on MC who say they DDos actually can't do it and just found the term on Wikipedia. I'll hold that opinion forever...

PedagogicalWhen we first started are server over a year ago. saying you were from PMC was a daily occurrence. lately it seems that no one even bothers with the joke any more. As it's been over played. Will just slowly creep into the internet history books.
User:"Hello, Pedagogical are you the owner of the server?"
Me:" Yes I am whats up?
User:" I'd like to inform you that I'm from planet mine craft and I'm here to make a you tube video to front page submission on the website.
Me:"Interesting..."
User:"But, because of my current client restrictions I am unable to record your server. could you please give me server administrative powers.
Me:"Sure, here you go."
Users:"I don't have powers yet"
Me: "I just gave it to you. Reconnect."
User reconnects.
Users: "Still no powers"
Me: "Oh, well that sucks"
*insert random swearing from users*
users disconnects....
The bolded part is basically what happens when they ask me, and all of these start off in the same way anyways.

If you ask one of these "I'm from PMC" trolls to justify why they need op they can never explain it. They say they are testing plugins or testing permissions - which can be done without being an operator.
What these trolls don't understand is that a correctly (securely) configured server HAS NO OPS. I never ever even op myself on my own server, its just dumb and a huge security risk - and that's why we have permissions.
If you are using op accounts on your servers I strongly suggest you deop them and set up some appropriate permissions for the people who need them.
