They rely 100% on reports for solicitations and a vast majority of other bannables. There are some auto-bannable devices but if you don't actively hack you've got nothing to worry about.

what counts as actively hacking? stuff like warping around, god mode, infinite ammo I imagine but does it also count dropping a mil or two on my head? I'd rather not get banned a second time since afaik Im on second offense territory

that's the poo poo that will get you reported by other players in public sessions. a certain amount of reports in a short period will get your account flagged, what happens next is a mystery but it often ends in suspended/perma'd accounts.

there's a third way, for those who are sick of grinding but don't want to risk their account and this is by far the safest method around (a lot of people will be angry with me for sharing it publicly but here goes;) so you'll want to find the directory where you installed GTAV first and open it. find a file called "common.rpf" and make a backup copy of it. now uninstall GTAV (making sure to keep common.rpf safe) then open common.rpf with a text editor and change every line to "I will not reinstall this lovely game" then say 4 hail marys and delete it also. maybe play that overwatch crap the kids are going nuts for instead? they seem to be enjoying themselves.

I did this last night to buy A Little Place In The Country.

...if that's an accrurate descriptor for the Route 68 Extension garage purchased for overflow cars and my bike. Got it for $12,000ish with the trade. Kuruma gets to come back to Richards Majestic now, too. Just have to figure out which car goes to the desert in its place.

I get people reporting me all the time.

whenever someone asks for money in the chat, go into the inventory menu > cash > share cash from last job if you have anything in there to share, and give them 5%. Chances are they'll ask you how you sent money, and you tell him it's magic. That sets them and pretty much everybody else in there into a frenzy with others begging for money or threatening to report you for handing it out.

If you rob a store for $1100, you can send 5% which is $55 and most people just say "thanks for the money" instead of mentioning you only gave them $55.

Spawning money bags, selling or saving spawned cars in your garage, editing stats and doing anything that'd get you reported to hell and back by the entire session (god mode, invisibility, teleporting, explosive bullets, one-hit kill, etc.) are all big no-nos.

Unwisely, Santa offered a teddy bear to James, unaware that he had been mauled by a grizzly earlier that year.
So I got this the other day, downloaded it and updated it etc so it was ready to play when I wanted to, but I haven't actually launched it. Early this morning I got an email from Rockstar saying that my account was suspended with a list of common reasons, but not one specific to me. Considering my playtime is exactly 0 seconds I find it hard to believe that I've done something to warrant that. I've tweeted their customer support and direct messaged them but no answer. I wouldn't mind as it's been just less than a day, but they've been getting back to everyone else within 10-20 minutes of their tweets so I feel like they're ignoring me because all bans and suspensions are final according to their email.

Has anyone got any experience with anything similar to this, or know of another way to get in touch with them like a live chat? I did submit a ticket through their website but it was auto-closed due to being a suspension related topic. It just seems really lovely that they apparently have a second infraction and you're perma-banned rule, and I've lost my first without even playing the drat game. I haven't modded it either, it's a completely clean installation. Even if I had of though I'm sure I would have needed to run it for them to pick it up. This is just so ridiculous to me.

Me cheat? No. Eventually reskin everyone to look like Spongebob? Maybe.

It was through GMG, which I didn't realise at the time gave me a Rockstar code instead of a Steam code. Didn't catch that bit on the product page. I'm thinking they'll just refer me back to Rockstar support rather than offering any help themselves.

Oh and if it makes any difference, I did originally play GTA V on console. It ported over some of my single player stats to the social club thing, but I never touched online play then. So as playtime remains at 0 seconds, all my stats are at 0 for online etc. I don't think that should have any effect.

It's both thrilling and terrifying.
There are certain programs that you can have installed on your PC that Rockstar will auto-detect as cheating even if it's not directly related to the game. poo poo like programs that mess with your RAM or whatever.

Who knows. I feel safer playing on PS4.

Yeah I had a thought it might be that, but as I have no clue which ones it would be I don't know how to fix it and so will likely just get a perma ban if that's the case!

I wonder if that's the same Broughy who was in MWO earlier today spamming "poo poo gently caress friend of the family oval office gently caress YOU gently caress poo poo" and other choice Tourettes outbursts. It's the first time I've worn a :stare: face while playing that game.

More trouble than its worth unless you're terrible on a bike.

e: & I mean dogshit terrible on a bike.

Pro-rear end bike strat:
Have the hacker take the money & stay in the bank, since for whatever reason the hacker doesn't have to "Exit the bank". One or multiple people run to bikes & suicide. You'll restart at the bikes, have the hacker go first & make sure you/they take a right out of the parking lot & then a left to go the intended route. Everyone must take their own bike, if one person gets on with another rider the whole "cops don't shoot" thing goes right out the window. Make sure the hacker stays out in front & try to keep a safe distance as a group. Most importantly nobody should be shooting, aiming at or really even thinking about killing cops until you get to the tunnel. Everyone meet up on the hill before the tunnel & take out the cops. Make your way up to the cliff & parachute off. If you're carrying the money either try to land very carefully on land, or land in the water. Either way, slow down in the air when you get close to the ground.
