Dozens of Grand Theft Auto: Online players banned as Rockstar cracks down on cheaters

Rockstar is tired of cheaters ruining Grand Theft Auto: Online, and it is banning a number of players for using mods and other exploits.

Players on Grand Theft Auto forums like Reddit and the official Rockstar website have started complaining that they are no longer able to play the online multiplayer portion of the game. This is apparently due to a wave of bans that the studio is placing on people it believes used hacks, glitches, or mods to get an advantage over the rest of the GTA: Online population. The bans for most people will last about 10 days, which means that you can get back to playing on August 22.
