@558 I agree too. If anyone uses a modified copy of Online then Rockstar should clamp down on them, as they are giving themselves an unfair advantage. With regards to SP though, maybe they take the view that anyone who uses a modified SP copy will by default have a modified Online copy too. However, if someone has a modified SP copy, then what they do on their is purely their own liability, as they aren't playing against anyone. If someone has used any mods to improve the game (such as draw distance or POV mods), then I don't see what harm they are doing. The thing I'm wondering is why Rockstar choose to clamp down on it now (the presence of Online is my best guess) when they've tolerated it for the past fourteen or so years.
