Truth about GrandRP

ive been playing on the Grand Roll Play servers for over a year and a half and during my time there ive seen some very shady things go on from the owners and the administration of the servers. Russian owned and ran, they design all the features around they best way for them to make money. the price for their ‘battlepass’ has more than doubled to $350US in recent months and at the same time they reduced ALL the prized you can obtain from it. its a complete waste of money. they don’t care about the players at all, only the player’s money and how to get it from them.
if you EVER have a complaint about an admin you are directed to file an admin complaint on their forums, which ANY complaint about an admin is looked at as admin disrespect and you will get a ‘vacation’ from the server, usually from a week to 30 days to 60 days to a permanent ban just for speaking out against the admins. is so bad that even the admin you have a complaint about will deny your complaint and then issue a ban for disrespecting them, without checks and balances to the complaint system they put in place. this is complete corruption so please never expect a fair outcome. i have no doubt that writing this review will surly result in them banning my account if i share who i am just because they cant take criticism without labeling it "admin disrespect" or "project disrespect". yes, players get banned just for saying its a "bad server" or mentioning anything wrong with the project or their corrupt admins.
the most toxic players continue to rule these servers due to the promotion of streamers. if you stream your time on their servers they will pay you with in-game currency, no matter how toxic you are. they keep promoting these people in hopes they can make more money, but at the same time it makes the servers not worth playing on. the toxic streamers never get banned, but instead they get rewarded for actively being toxic with hack tools allowing god-mode features like teleporting after throwing cars at players or using weapons only available to these cheaters like rockets. admins look the other way to this while giving you a ban if you point out that they do nothing to the hackers.
there are more problems with this server and the community than can be described here. from the out of control economy to the very poor programming that causes the game to continually crash this past several months. many of us can see how GrandRP is fleecing their user base to the point that long time players like myself are looking elsewhere to spend my time and my money.
