How are we supposed to know who “Omer” is? It’s just a name for us with no context. Every account has over a hundred serials linked to it, and every serial has thousands of accounts tied to it. Emails are often different, IPs are dynamic, so there’s no reliable way to identify anyone. I never understood why real names started being used here, because there’s no way for us to know which real name belongs to which player. For e.g. you can say your real name here now, but on the other day someone else will use this account.
With all this in mind, it’s unrealistic to expect us to ban someone just for connecting when we have no way to know who is who. That's why country ban was given.
This is why we only ban the serial that was used for hacking, and sometimes the account as well. And this is also why, if someone’s serial gets banned because it was exposed through account sharing, we can’t help. We have no way to know whether someone is lying or telling the truth. We don’t know whether they cheated and got caught, or someone spoofed their serial and caused the ban. We have zero control over this.
That’s why Asturel introduced a new rule: if your serial gets banned, it means you did something bad in the past to begin with. Never share your accounts, and never play on someone else’s account, because that’s how your serial gets exposed.
If you want to blame someone, blame the MTA developers for creating a serial system that is basically useless.
