Well, I kinda just committed PC suicide!
I hate (with a passion) mod and cheat users!
I just declared war on a twitter group, GTA 5 Modded Accounts.
I reported their Page to Rockstar (who on copy write violations alone should be able to shut down the page!)
Then openly told them about it (and what I think of them!)
Of course, they have Hackers and Programmers of Doom on their side with Skills I can barely understand.
And it will not be just a few geeks in their mom's basement but an actively organised business,
With a load of community support of a load of Sheep who delude themselves that they are some sort of hippy rebels that are "Sticking it to the Man!"
So yes, I am Kinda VERY screwed,
I would not surprise me if under 72 hours my PC caught fire (or at least got virus bombed to oblivion)
And I am under no delusion that there is even a chance of any victory here!
Because Rockstar themselves don't seem to care,
BUT
I am self-destructive and stupid enough to feel doing "What is Right" is FAR more important than "Self-interest,"
Oh hum!
Better play a load of games while I still can!
PS!
"Yes, I understood the even as I
posted it was not strictly within community guidelines.
But I find I am starting to lean towards more extremes in order to try and fight the Cheaters.
(to be honest, we both know, there are FAR more important issues in the world but I am simply an aggressive "not put up and accept the way things are," by nature sort of person!).
I would not be posting some recruitment drive like this for some 'social' or 'racing' crew.
I am trying against all odds to make a statement to the endemic PC cheating and mod community that there is a a core of honest players that are prepared to get together under one banner and stand up to their behaviour! (Even if Rockstar themselves ever choose not too.)
I am not simply just totally deluded, I fully understand and actually feel like the lone nut case with a tin foil hat pissing against the wind and getting my face wet! But I am giving it a shot anyway.
I am 'having a go' despite all apparent futility.
Yes, this post might be removed (and probably will) But it was not like I had to run 10 k to slap it up in the first place!
What else can I say, I am trying to form a resistance against the community status quo, and I invite others who give a crap to join me!
And like most resistances outside a movie universe, I will probably fail and get ruthlessly crushed.
But at least I can always then say "I tried!"
What will you be able to say?"
The comment maker replied with the following,
"So you think it is ok to break the rules? Hmmmm"
!What will I be able to say? I chose the right platform with very few cheaters.,"
And this was my retort
Dear Sir (Person name has been omitted)
"1) They are described as "COMMUNITY GUIDELINES" NOTE "GUIDELINES" Not rules. 2) The first line of the forums intention for use, "The Support forums are a place for players to help other players with solutions to common issues." I would say an endemic cheating culture in the PC player community is a "Common Issue" and that I am offering "to help other players with solutions", I feel I am fulfilling the 'Spirit' of the community forums intention, 3) PC players are not second-class citizens or a form of lower caste customer, If they can fix or reduce the problems on other platforms, then PC players have the same right to that level of quality in their gaming environment. There should be no "right platform," And as an added note for point 3), before you say there are technical issues unique to the PC preventing the same anti-cheat protection levels, you might want to look around at all the other MMORPG's (Many PC only) and how much more effective they are at dealing with these issues than Rockstar have been! Yours RatLombot."
b) Have a pro-Cheat MOD agenda, maybe even a financial stake?

The Post has since been removed from the Community Help Forum.
So the person must have made a complaint and Rockstar chose to uphold that complaint.
But you have to question his motives!
Either they are
a) Really anal about rule's (even more so than me
Or
