IP BANNED COUNTRIES ! : tunisia / algeria / marroco / egypt (and others..) basically most countries from north africa .

alright , let me explain what is this and why it was made .
5 years ago when blackshot was in TwoWar's hands everyone around the world was playing it . and then 
hacks and cheats spreaded , like ALOT ! some of these cheats were made from the countries i mentioned , basically cus the blackshot files were easy to acces (litterly just go to the file and open it as a notepad) 
it allowed people to buy NZ1 weapons / TWC (currently called BSC) weapons and basically anything with 1 BP [anyone could easly edit the file and edit the prices] also hacks that made in-game models' heads bigger so if u shoot in the air , like in roof top just shoot in the air in the direction of the enemy spawn and you would get headshots .
Blackshot GMs couldn't keep all the hackers from comming in and all these cheats spreading , so they decided to IP ban these countries , lowering the player base by about 30% or so .

basically you can download the game , but not be able to log in cus they made it "not available in your region" .
now you can download the game and log in but not be able to join any channels even global (even tho it's called global o.O) .

so since the files aren't easly to acces anymore and the hacking is not a problem anymore thanks to the security system and battleye , i think it's time to remove the ban and get more players in.
i mean , there are still players from these countries that play it , they simply use VPN changers (proxy).
but i think removing the ban would help blackshot grow more.

when i used to play it 5 years ago global was nearly impossible to log on all 7 servers were full most of the time and europe had 3 servers back then , and 2 of them are full most of the time.(no joke)

also many balance changes and BP prizes need to be adjusted to attract European players again

    Bad idea.
    Why must blackshot have more players ?
    It will break the game and if gm do that i'll stop to play

    so by your logic , having more players = bad ?
    logic is , having more players = more rooms / clan wars
    more diversity 
    and by companies logic = more money 
    idk what's bad in this

    go back and read what i wrote up there ...
    people were able to , now not anymore , cus it's blocked , not cus out of reach , otherwise it wouldn't be called global . also if you can't read the first post nor my reply how can u even post here ?
    as i quote from my reply
