Why are Social Club services blocked on my IP?

[Knight]

Basically, I was gonna reinstall the game but wanted to check if the services are up again or not. This time I confirmed the site is just straight up blocked, confirmed with VPN on my phone. I just saved myself some time instead of downloading 120gigs and finding out whats up.

My ISP is SitiNet in india. Anyone experiencing the same? Should I really bother ringing up people at siti, could they solve it?

Try to shut down router for 10-15 minutes (sometimes need longer, i.e. leave shut down over nght) and if your IP is dynamic it will change (usually people with this issue have dynamic).

Haven't touched the game since october because of this. Who do I exactly contact here you know, how is this even an issue? It's always been like this with rockstar

Alraaaight whatever, downloading the game now. Perhaps the launcher uses different connection resources and the login might work? COPIUM 101

How did that work out exactly? What do I even say in the trouble ticket? "Hey guys, seems my IP is blocked by your services due to whatever sketchy reason. Please unblock me"

i just asked them to investigate why i can't access rockstar social club, it was pain in the ass to talk with them cause most of responses were copy pasted but eventually one guy fixed it saying that my ip was flagged when their social club was ddossed

And you just copy pasted your ip and they unblocked it from their side? See, people at my ISP are weird to just reason with, I'm not willing to sacrifice braincells just to explain to them how a specific service is unaccessable to me

Okay so there's hope rockstar might fix it for me and I won't have to waste time with people at ISP
