[SA:MP] Developers Answer: Give Examples

[(tr)Ollie]

Ok so we do some shit and burn down a couple of state buildings. The FBI and SWAT come in all their cars and a couple of UC's in normal cars. We shoot a couple and kill them but we decide we have to run away. Someone sprints to the normal car and as it is unlocked we still it and drive away. However, this car belongs to an FBI agent. The agent then proceeds to log out and back in again so we, the criminals lose our car and are stuck in the middle of no where.

Is this allowed?

No, that is script abuse. Send a mail to the email.

Edit: I'd also like to add that that was EXTREMLY bad sportsmanship.

If you're referring to Jose, he was spoken to the same day by the administration and explained it's not allowed.

I still need an answer for these questions:

Question: Is money scamming against server rules? If yes, what punishment? Forced removal of the money, ban, etc?

I have a question on how it works with the rule about not being allowed to shoot at cops to aid friends.

I would like a specific explenaition about that, before someone bans me.

Let's say I am player_1 and my friend, who I know for quite a long time on Argonath, Player_2 (good guy), is in trouble and he is chased by 2 cops. He asks me in /PM to help him, so I grab a car, go after him and catch up with him in my brand new pumped up shining, highly modified, $55,000 Green/Orange Elegy and start shooting at the cops with my Combat. Is this allowed?

When can I aid a friend, when he is in the same group as me? When I am standing next to him? When I am personally involved in the situation? Etc.

Question: Is it allowed to use the Joypad control option and, or an Auto-aim MOD?
Ex: GTA San Andreas how to auto aim (PC)

Not mentioning any names as the people involved know who they are.

Indeed it is Alan, indeed it is.

Is it allowed to STAND on top of a moving car driven by a criminal and attack it WITHOUT weapons (bashing it with your feet)?

For those who will argue advantages and disadvantages, then remember that the criminal can shake the cop off the roof of his car.

IIRC, that is allowed.
Seem to remember reading that in this topic.

Incorrect, it is totally impossible to do that intentionally.
Heck, if you do a barrel roll, they stay standing on the car.. :roll:

Possible. You have a 50-50 chance before the cop demolishes your car with a deagle. Do 180 km/h + and do a fast U-Turn.

Still see it around, being "practiced". I read JDC's post, I know what he wrote.

I'm pretty sure that's not allowed either, but I'm not entirely sure.

No... Abusing the respawn option...
In such case FBI agent can be reported and admin will check the reason of last leaving... If it will show "himself", then there goes punishment...

May I also ask, what skill are you refering to? RP skill? Oh, wait, of course! Deathmatching and shooting skill which is actually not required on an RP server.

Why not? 
I myself support roleplayers, if they have fighting skills and even have trainings to have it more higher...
I only can agree, there is no any challenge from DMErs on SAMP "haha f**king roleplayers losers cannot fight pussies!" (on MTA:VC it was almost every week attempt) so usage of skills is more rare...

But I myself enjoyed the mafia war between Stracci and Marques... Both sides were very careful and smart not to disturb cops and especially admins... Perfect organized: no moaning on each other, and finished in a good time... With a very good fighting skills and team work...

You'd be surprised that this happens more often. Hell, we've gone through a few wars without me even noticing it

Question: Is money scamming against server rules? If yes, what punishment? Forced removal of the money, ban, etc?

Depends...

1. Scam in casinos will lead to the punishment... If it is casino owner - he will lose casino and money he scammed... If it is a player - he will get another punishment and lose money he scammed... Both cases can also lead to the bans...
2. Scamming of the new players is not allowed... It leads straight to ban for using the lack of knowledges from the newbie and attempts on welcome money while player is trying to check the server...
3. Gambling on the streets - your own risk... If you will be scammed on the street money can be not returned and stay in scammer's pocket...

However scamming is not welcomed and will be anyways a sort of signal to admins to watch closer the scammer...
