[[SA-RP]Purge]

(This screen shot is dated further back than any they have.)

This screen-shot was taken, Friday, November 28, 2008, 12:09:59 PM. This isn't an abnormal thing for SA-RP to experience, people comming on our server and advertising for others. Usually we just ban them and have away with them. We had banned them from the server on multiple IP's and range banned them to prevent them from comming back.

Recently they've posted over 15 threads on our forums per spamming account they've made. They've intentionally tried to break down an official SA-MP server (San Andreas Role-Play) with no reason.

They've also created a re-directing link with San Andreas Role Play's abbreviation in it. (http://www.SA-RP.phpbb.net)


For proof it was them doing this, here you go:

You're trying to run an official server yet can't even control a couple of spammers?

They're using proxies and other tactics to get around range bans, though we've stopped the in-game spamming.

After looking into this more, I find that their server IP is 82.80.133.203:7777 and its the same one they used on the forums. I believe we have been getting ddos'd by that IP Address also. I will get more info on that and get back to you.

Fixed the last screen shot that shows them with SA-RP.phpbb.net aswell as their server IP being linked to the spam threads on our forum.

Its not a DDoS if only one computer brings down your server. There is also no proof in this thread that substantiates your claims.

EDIT: Also...you wanted official status and you have it. Along with EVERYTHING that goes along with it (spammers, cheaters, griefers, DoSers....)
