If you’re a modder and you are caught, you are banned for a month, get caught again and it’s forever. If a modder drops money on you, you get an account wipe if it’s massive and you spent it, if you get a small amount and leave the session quick rockstar will only correct your funds.

Modders were able to exchange knowledge and team up in order to create new tools, mods and documentation. GTA communities, Internet forums, and fan sites have also been essential, as they serve as hosts for mods.

First of all, getting money dropped on you won’t get you banned, and it has never caused false bans. Another misconception is that whether or not you bank the cash actually matters. Some claim banking it will save you from a ban, others that banking it is what causes the ban.

Originally Answered: Are mods legal in Minecraft? No, modding Minecraft is not illegal. In general, modding is not illegal per se, but may become illegal by infringing on the rights of the original creator(s) of the software.

Mods are utilizing some developer approved method of modifying the game. Hacks are attempting to achieve the same result, but via non-approved methods.

A hacker used to be someone that that got access to computer files and info through illicit means. A modder is someone who who developes code to change a game. If a player is using a menu in GTA V, or Skyrim, or whatever, they are using mods, but doesn’t make them a modder.

But GTA Online players themselves have also become equally as dangerous, thanks to exploits and mods. These third-party mods allow hackers to access the IP address of other players on the server, which can reveal a person’s city and general location. Players can feel hunted down no matter where they are in game.

Yes, there seems to be plenty cheaters on console as well.
