Answer: In order to keep Grand Theft Auto Online fair for everyone, we are removing illegitimate RP from the accounts of players who hacked or modded to get ahead.
Question: Is this a one-time RP correction or an ongoing process to identify cheaters who cheat to gain levels?
Answer: Both. The first round of RP correction will occur on 5/20/14 to remove illegitimate RP all the way back to GTA Online’s launch in October 2013. After that, we will be running continual, automated sweeps to identify and correct RP violations.
Question: How much RP will be removed from affected accounts?
Answer: We currently plan to revert the Ranks of affected accounts back to the approximate level they were before the violations occurred.
Question: My little brother’s cousin’s best friend was visiting my house in December 2013 and somehow did something that increased my Rank to 1000. I had nothing to do with it. So I don’t mind the Rank correction, but will my account face any other action?
Answer: We don’t plan on taking further action beyond RP reduction when the first round of correction hits on 5/20/14 for players whose accounts show limited modification. But please be warned: accounts found to be hacking or modding to generate illegitimate amounts of RP after 5/20/14 will be subject to further action at our discretion, such as time in the Cheater Pool or Bad Sport Pool. Repeat offenders may also have their accounts reset, experience bans, or have all their GTA$ removed (other than unspent Shark Card funds).
Question: Will corrected accounts still get to keep money and other items gained since the violations?
Answer: Yes. In the first wave of corrections, only RP will be affected. GTA$ and other items will not be affected. However, accounts that incur RP violations after 5/20/14 may face further action.
Question: I gained a ton of RP in 2013 without hacking or modding, by taking advantage of certain mission bugs and exploits before they were fixed. Will my RP be adjusted?
Answer: Your RP should only be adjusted if you participated in mods, hacks, DNS redirects, manipulation of cloud files, or other similarly nefarious behavior. If you grinded short legitimate missions or otherwise gained a small amount of RP without modding, your RP should not be affected by this correction.
Question: I know of a new exploit players are using to gain an unfair advantage in GTA Online. How can I report the method as well as the players using it?
Answer: Please submit all the details to [email][email protected][/email]. Be sure to include the Platform, Gamertag or PSN ID of reported players, description of the violation along with steps, time/date of the violation, and any concrete evidence you have such as online video or forum links.

Cost would be astronomical, they build the game with certain parameters to maintain. Modding is based on tearing those parameters down and re-shaping them for fun. The servers would be shit so many fucking bugs or not enough mod compatibility either way Rock star would be responsible and completely liable for correcting the servers with a lot of fucking man time. In short it would be all bad and work for them and all we would do is add to their all ready frustrated workload. If you still don't see why modding can be counter-intuitive when it comes to game developers after the fact. Than you should try to make your modding a more communicable process and see how hard it is to get things to sync up and function to the point where it exceeds peoples expectations. Because any less is not good enough for global franchise, there not EA.

I don't see why they don't just give us modders a separate server and let us mod.. it would be so much better. EVERY game gets modded at some point they knew it was gonna happen. i don't see why they punish us for doing what us modders wanna do, we bought the game therefor we should be able to do what ever we want on it. yea it may not be our servers but why cant they just give us a separate server that people can have modding compitions and stuff? think about how much better the game would be.. Most of us mod to make the game more fun. (some do it because they think there better then ever one) (witch there not). if they would take some of the mods and add them into the game it would be so much better.. plus we wouldn't have to hear all the OFW kids crying about our mods. (although it is fun to troll some kids). I just don't see why Rock-Star has to have a stick up there ass and be so strict about modders...
