Keybinds - I need opinions on it from everyone.

[Devin]

We have discussed the matter and come to the consensus that keybinds will not be allowed within SA:MP.
Unfortunately the risks out-weigh the advantages of allowing these sorts of programs which makes allowing it too much of a risk.

[Kaze]

Is Keybind the same as copy and paste?

[Kapil]

I say leave it disallowed, but majority of us already use copy & paste to do our commands faster.

With allowing it I see people getting advantage to role playing pulling out guns faster and such, as someone without key binds would still be typing out his commands. I know majority of servers out there support the key bind idea, but it gets annoying when you are the player without key binds. Allowing it could help, but also brings enforcement with spammers and moaners who would say it's unfair because they don't have key binds.

P.S Key binds are not the same as Copy & Paste, you bind a command to a key and you hit that key to do the command. It's instant so no need of typing. In my opinion I think we should disallow it, but it requires more enforcing but the same goes for allowing it.

It seems people are only looking at the "bright" side of keybinds, take into account the other things that can be "abused" with keybinds, for example surrendering instantaneously, "buying food" (when the system is up) in seconds when being chased perhaps?
With every positive and helpful tool there is always a downside that can be exploited or abused.

Devin, i really dont see your poin in this example. I can do the same without keybinds

I do not understand "risks" of such programs considering servers with three times the player base daily have most players using them with no issues... The only thing I can think of is that Argonath has a bad history of its players always abusing things. :/

[Devin]

It's a third party application, you can't say that most would have it installed which means it's not unfair to those that don't have it.
There are ways it can be abused which is why it will not be allowed within SA:MP.

I took it up with the rest of the HQ for discussion about allowing it and the responses were to not allow it.

[CBFasi]

If it cannot be allowed then fine, let it be.

If you believed that you would not of made this topic as it had already not been allowed ...

double negative makes a positive, double triple negative makes a positively negative, positively negative positive gives a possible positive, Keybinds confirmed.
