Title: Question that raises in my mind
Post by: Deadman on August 24, 2021, 10:57:46 am
I've heard from some people that VPN is now allowed in PTP. Admins were used to kick/ban people for using VPN (I remember Fimpen doing it) so why is VPN allowed? If VPN is allowed when why something like this (https://planbserver.com/forum/index.php?topic=6267.0) is not allowed?? Doesn't VPN changes the data tracking anyway and if it changes, where are these words that willing to catch my eye?

As this mod sends modified data to the server and misguides players in combat (chainsaw fights, ramming people etc), it won't be allowed

It's not a mod but it does change everything so what's this hypocrisy?? Why VPN's allowed and fakeping.cs not? Both do the same thing doesn't it which is to alter the ping, internet lag and other things and most importantly: fake location.

Ping modification just changes your ping while your net is perfectly fine, and whereas VPN brings lag with higher ping, it won't show false ping.

Right but my point is, doesn't lag make it superior over others?

If lag gave you a serious edge over other players, I don't think laggers would be allowed at all.
Besides, I believe there are countries you can't access certain servers from unless you use a VPN.

That's literally the only reason that would put me in favour of allowing the use of VPNs.
