Read the topic before you comment or you'll end up looking like an idiot. He said that only certain email hosts will be accepted, like Gmail. The temporary email services will not work.

From my experience of coding, this really isn't too difficult to make, but samp is weird so I may be wrong.

Its true that if they want to hack, the will continue to hack. There is no stopping that. At least this is a way of slightly preventing that.

Anyway, It will definitely defer some hackers from constantly coming back or at the very least low them down a lot.

Good suggestion man

This will help, it's too much effort so the cheaters will move on to another server.

However, so will new players, -1 since this might and will scare new players away.

It is not possible to limit the emails to Yahoo or Google that's what I said if you read my reply and if it is then I'd give this a +1 because why not.

Okay So there are 2 types of new comers to the server:
1- People who get invited by their friends or relatives to enjoy and play the server with them this type will surely complete the process needed to make an account to be able to play with their friends and I'm sure their friends will walk them through it,
2- The passerby who randomly look for servers and try them out I cannot guarantee that this type of new comers will follow the needed steps to make an account some of them might get bored halfway and say fuck this server I'm going to find another one
this is a risk I know that but This will benefit the server more than it will damage it, someone made a poll on the Bar once asking how did you find LSRCR And About 70 percent of whom answered said we were invited by a friend or a relative meaning that a high percentage of new comers will complete the needed steps to make an account.
and also it's easy to write on the welcoming screen once new players connect to the server what are the steps needed to make an account and how to activate the account or even a youtube video link showing them how it's done and i'm glad to do it for them, and with Most of the servers on Samp having this update or a similar one it won't be that surprising.

Trust me it's possible and it's really easy if you think about it I'm not a coder myself but Stephenkelly is and he said it can be done and I assume you don't have Experience with SAMP coding I will just have to agree with Stephen.
A solution I just thought of: Coders will limit the accepted Email account services to a list which is going to be determined by the most famous and used Email Addresses services on the internet it's probably going to be short list let's say about 10 providers then they will make it a must for new comers to input one of those Providers, Speaking about coding *I'm not an expert* if the email doesn't end with yahoo.com gmail.com hotmail.com or the other accepted email services it will not be accepted.
never say something can't be done.

I am no big coder either, I am doing a C++ course currently and you can check (atleast in C++), if it ends with gmail, hotmal, Yahoo etc and I can code it too.

Thanks mate but I'm sure LSRCR Developers and coders can handle it :D

Well the suggestion is good it will help with hackers but as Robin said it will decrease the player base because half of server players didn't know how to make email and active account so they will leave. About hackers the suggestion is perfect
