Littlewhitey's VC-MP
Reporting Guidelines

This section is for VC-MP Server Reports Only!
If you are looking for the Littlewhitey's SA-MP Report a Cheater topic it is located here.


If you have caught or witnessed a cheater in the server and wish to report that player then please create a new topic in this section using the following format:

Quick Tip: Press [Select] and copy the message, create a new topic and paste it into the window and fill in the sections.

Make sure to add the subject of your report, the nickname of the player, and the reason why they have been reported. By using this format for your Subject (Topic name):
Code: [Select]
<Nickname> - <Reason>

Code: [Select]
Nickname:
Time and date (if known):
Suspected method of cheat/exploit/rule break used:
Evidence:
Additional information:



If your reporting a player for ban evading, please include the link of the report this player was banned for in the Additional Information field. This way, we can cross-check our records and see if this player is ban evading or not.

Once your report has been posted it will need to be approved by an admin before it is taken into consideration. If your report is disapproved it will be locked/denied without warning.

We will lock/deny reports if they contain the following:
  • Incomplete information - eg; no nickname provided, no evidence.
  • False reports - reports against players where no rule has been broken.
  • Poor quality evidence - low resolution image or video that cannot be clearly seen.
  • Wrong date provided - When reporting please use the correct date/time. If your report is older than stated then it may be denied. Those who break this rule multiple times may be temporarily banned from posting on the forum.

Follow-up questions might be asked during the report investigation and they will need to be answered as soon as possible to ensure the report is completed effectively.




Evidence MUST be included with your report. This must be in the form of either a video, screenshot or log.

A video is the recommended form of evidence when reporting a player. Please always try and get video proof.

  • Video evidence must be in an acceptable quality. It must be viewable, not blurry.
  • Image evidence must clearly show the reported player caught in the act and must be of high quality. Not low res, not blurry.
  • Log evidence must provide a FULL log. Do not remove content from the log.

For images, please use imgur.com, it's free, quick, and doesn't come with any suspicious ad's at the side of the page or adult content.

You can generally find saved chatlogs from your play sessions on Littlewhitey's server at the following location on Windows:

C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\VCMP\04beta\serverlogs\91.121.134.5-8192

(hint: you can easily get to this location quickly by typing %appdata% into the explorer menu bar.)



REPORTING DEATH EVADERS:

If you are reporting a player for death evading then you must provide video evidence, a screenshot or a log will not be accepted and the report will be denied.


REPORTING STAFF MEMBERS:

The same rules and guidelines listed above apply when reporting staff members. Please use the same format.
