I've noticed that many people use if(IsPlayerConnected(playerid) under many general callbacks.

Is that even necessary?

ie:
OnPlayerText
OnPlayerCommandText
...and others

Nah, that's retarded. GF does that checks and because whoever uses GF also do that. How the fuck can player trigger a callback if he/she isn't connected?

Lol I know. It gets pretty annoying seeing that. There wouldn't be as many problems with people's script if they used some common sense and actually thought for a second.

Lol

When would you properly use it?

Simple checking:

pawn Code:

new 
  id;

if(unformat(params, "r", id)) return ...;
else if(!IsPlayerConnected(id)) return SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR, "The requested player is not connected..."); // HERE :D

@SAVC,

Code:

else if(if == INVLAID_PLAYER_ID)

This would be better way to check that since sscanf returns INVALID_PLAYER_ID if player isn't connected.
