SIDE NOTE: This is just going to push the development of VPN and VPN ban-bypassing.
+ it violates anything related to "privacy" (if anyone from the officials even give 2 fs about this)

The (opposing) majority should go finger themselves in the sphincter & enjoy the pleasure while it lasts before reaching climax, IMO.

"Grand Theft Auto: Vice City" was a game developed by westerners, and the sequential mod "Vice City - Multiplayer" was developed by westerners too.
Doesn't matter that it's riddled with human-form cockroaches these days.
Know each Creation's roots & know your places, if you remotely expect any hope for Change. It's smth called "respect" and "honor".

Leave the serious-topic voting to the sane-minded & go back to what you were good at, that is - making mud bricks & herding goats, and helping the Afghans' in their cannabis-industry's production & logistics.

(sane-minded Pakistani people - excluded. You're welcomed.)

I agree w/ this mf. kek

This is the Internet, not real life. Get over y'all's selves.

Owners/High-level Admins have access to IP & subnet stuff (or w/e it's called). And I know this for a fact. Some puny alias thing isn't a problem.

No excuses on this one. Just biased pakistani nationalistic monke power-hunting otherwise. (judging - at the very least so far - by the nationality of everyone here that casted a -1, lol)





P.S. Owner is a massive snitch.

The country-based system was implemented based on majority preference, and changing it again could create inconsistency. Many players favor keeping it as it enhances recognition and competition, while others argue that it compromises privacy, especially for those from smaller regions. Both perspectives have merit, but any change should be based on broader community feedback rather than individual concerns. I myself voted against the country-based system, as I preferred using continents instead. However, since the majority voted in favor, it makes sense to respect that decision. If a significant portion of players later support a revision, introducing an optional setting to display either country or continent or allowable on/off /country cmd could be a reasonable compromise.

By that logic — why not just give out to the public players' exact geographical location? So the "competition" could continue beyond the invisible walls of Vice City, kek (& kill the purpose of what VC-MP was supposed to be about — a training ground for real life, seperate from real life's consequences)

You want competition? Come loc bf.

Anything beyond that — be it players doing psychological warfare on the Discords, or mixing the "cyber" with "real life" & doxxing beyond the confines of the game — should be a free choice for each player if he wants to get involved, not something enforced on him.

I guess you misunderstood the term "competition". In online games, it's all about showcasing skills and tactics. The players who perform better, outsmart others, and make the best strategic moves are considered more skillful. In short, that's what we call competition among players. I'm not referring to anything involving real-life details or location sharing. It's simply about the gameplay and how players compete within the game itself, not mixing it with real-world consequences. If the word "competition" bothers you that much, maybe this isn't the right place for you. However, I don't want to argue with you about off-topic matters anymore. As a player, I showed my opinion, thats all.

Nothing is misunderstood at all, mate.
As I mentioned in my previous post — "come loc bf" (& the quote in my signature "Skill b4 kill" too) — I'm all for the same.

But you seem to underestimate the power of the ⚫ Dark Side in each human's psyche (& some players' unawareness of that, in themselves especially), & how things could sometimes easily get out of hand, especially when the external environment promotes things getting out of hand, lol.
I've read enough Robert Greene & reddit stories of murdered gamers irl to know that it's a possibility. (at the very least)

And you're saying it yourself right now: Competition = Skill. Tf does "competition" (skill-wise) have anything to do with exposing players' identity then? (in any shape & form)
A skill is a skill, no matter whose hyper-Ego / alternative image/identity is behind that skill.

The only thing that has anything to do with anything is when "skill-wise" competition goes beyond & into psychological warfare / doxxing (or any type of warfare for that matter)

Nothing against any type of "warfare" in the game, ofc. But it should be a free choice for players (if they wanna get involved beyond "loc bf" competition). Not something enforced by the external environment.

I think instead of removing the country system, the server should implement a 1-2 account limit, where players can have only one main account and one practice account which would prevent excessive account creation while still allowing some flexibility for players to choose from,

Personally as someone who enjoys uploading VCMP gameplay videos, I find it much less appealing to upload footage of a player using an alias rather than their real name, having players use their known identities makes it clearer who is fighting who, rather than just showcasing fights against random named players


Regardless of personal opinions, this system not only helps manage the server's database but also benefits the community by encouraging personal growth, when players use their real names they become more recognizable and build a stronger identity within the game's community,

I'm not voting +1 or -1 on this suggestion because I believe the server needs a system that is better than both the current one and the one you're proposing.
