I think we deserve a better community than this it's supposed to be a free community if I'm not mistaken and in my opinion the current situation with the hosted list defiles what the SAMP community is built on by allowing commercialization of free software. Everyone should have a fair chance at the hosted list without the need of 3rd party individuals profiteering from forced hosting.

You really think that opening the account creation feature again is going to do more good than harm? What happens when another 200 servers get added to the hosted list as a result, and then the hosted list becomes even more redundant?

People really need to learn to think things through before they make a big thread crying about them.

SA-MP is not "supposed to be a free community", it's supposed to be free to PLAY - and it is.

If a server OWNER is lucky enough to have someone who can pay for everything for them, then good for them. The majority of server owners have to pay for their servers and that's their CHOICE and is also nothing to do with SA-MP whatsoever.

SA-MP server owners have the CHOICE of whether to pay for the hosted tab or not. If you don't want to pay for it, then don't. It's simple.
