Typing an ad in /p

[newton_alex]

Well it was said that if you don't type /ad and just type [SELLING]House in LV it is script abuse however Tommy_Corleone was unsure so i am basically asking is it script abuse ? I want to be 100% sure for myself aswell.
Also it's quite obvious that people are typing .ad ON PURPOSE to avoid the 500$ /ad fee. I know some people accidently fail on it however some people do it on purpose.

So basically is typing an ad in /p script abuse ?

You pay $50 for making your ad orange and rather standing out in the chat (+ auto-adding contact number). But I don't see why couldn't you advertise in global chat.

$500.
Some admin told me that is taken as script abuse using /p for adverts. Although TheRock_Kolta told me it's allowed...
I still think it's script abuse :o, we're all paying $500 for it, why wouldn't you pay?
Post Merge: March 06, 2010, 02:07:48 pmAnd now insteaf of abusing /ad, they abuse /p.
That's the side effect, plus to thoose who told me that it's allowed to use /p for ads, tell me please why the **** we have /ad  then?

Always attempt to see the larger picture.

Not script abuse...answer is what Grz said. You pay to have your ad stand out amid the ocean of white. You get a better chance of selling/buying whatever you want. That is what you pay for...
Furthermore advertising in /p does not mean you cannot get suspected if you advertise something illegal..

[EminemRulez]

Then please tell me why ppl got warned/kicked. for not using /ad few months ago?

The SAMP Manager has spoken, advertising products and services in /p is allowed. We're saved!

If you decide to abuse the freedom given with rulebreaking, be prepared for admin action. Understand my statement in its true meaning instead of taking a literal meaning to everything said.
xcasio has succeeded in reducing /ad abuse to almost 100 percent. He has not failed.

Indeed, he decreased /ad abuse. We don't see too much orange messages but instead of that they're using /p - still the same spam, but without orange messages. Successfully eliminated the orange messages

How would we abuse it? - If you just told us /p instead of /ad is allowed... I can use /ad's each 10 seconds, then instead of wasting almost 30000$ on ad's we could do it free, by using /p - Ad's can have double line, and our new adv. place (/p) can have double lines too? Right?

Personally i would not go as far to warn or kick for using /ad in /p.

I would simply ask them to please use /ad instead

How would you abuse the freedom given to use /p for adverts? You answered your own question...spamming chat...

Sometimes I wonder if I really am talking to human beings who have the capacity to think and act or will jump into the well if the manager said to...

[(tr)Ollie]

Yes he has decreased illegal ad's but there is even more bull crap on /p now.

It's already getting spammed
a) - $500 - orange message - No spam.
b) - $0 - white message - Gets spammed.

Which one you choose?
Using /p instead of /ad shouldn't be allowed, this is my opnion .
