Well Robix if they did release it people would only kick up a fuss about any bugs there are. How you expect them to release an unfinished product I don't know. This is pointless and should be locked.

They're referring to: http://www.multitheftauto.com/picture.php

You need a clean installation of SA, try removing both SA and MTA deleting any remaining folders. Then install it all again. Most people play using noCD 'cracks' for the same reason so it does work, no-one here will help you find one though. If that doesn't work make a post in the 'Help' section of the forum. Also make sure you have the 1.0 version of SA, prior to the anti-hotcoffee release i.e version 2.

Poll kicking can already be done, even in 0.5 with scripts. The 'silent-bot', why silent i don't know, doubtful that would happen, monitoring all those key presses would just add to or cause too much traffic. As for checking files even 0.5 did that, in DM i'm sure there will be more checks.

What I don't see why this feature would be in anyway useful, if possible.

Is this by any chance a 'backup' of gta3 ?

If your connecting to a server on your machine use 'localhost' as the i.p along with whatever port you set. If you want people to connect from the internet, presuming you have a router you need to forward the ports from your router. These things have been answered many times before, try reading through or searching the forums.

It's not the ban system alot of the time but the admins who are incompotent at spotting and dealing with cheaters properly and quickly. If a server has enough admins who watch the server and can spot cheaters then i.p banning is fine, after all you can always ban subnet groups too.

From what i hear multiplayer hot coffee was a close second
