Woohoo, hopefully a few more days of modder free bliss! They were starting to come back over the past couple of days, but nowhere near in the numbers they've been previously.
It's great seeing the R* forums full of the blub blubbing turds that make everyone elses life a misery with mods, all claiming the "i didnt mod, why am i banned" argument.

That's odd I don't get a delay and I use the up arrows to get to snacks like you.
I've had a weird bug since the last update in that sometimes the menu appears but after I've pressed up/down, everything disappears in the menu. Figured it was just me having issues with it.
Is that when you are in cover or just standing? it is fine in any other situation. expect when in outside cover. Also, It does not happen in solo online sessions.....
It is defo since the last update as I have video's of me using it just fine before... so not entirely sure what to make of it. R* have responded with their usual... reinstall The game, OS, Move house, Switch off the International Space Station (tough luck Mr Peake) blow up mars....
Genuine LOL
They really have asked me to virtually do that. unplug all USB devices, switch off all background programs (i do anyway), reinstall Direct X
Thank you for sending us your DxDiag and MSinfo.
We would like to have you try the following troubleshooting steps to help resolve the issues you are experiencing.
• Ensure that you have Administrator privileges on the computer you are trying to run the game on.
• Ensure that all non-essential USB devices are disconnected from the computer for the purposes of troubleshooting. This could include (but isn't limited to): game controllers, flight-sticks, etc.
• Update your video and sound drivers. (Refer to manufacturer’s website)
• Disable Background Applications.
It is strongly recommended to turn off all background applications when running graphically intensive programs. Many applications can cause errors such as GPFs, color scrambling, loss of sound effects or music, etc. Taking a minute to turn off these applications can save you the trouble of rebooting later. Background applications include such things as System Agent, Norton Utilities, Internet chat utilities, virus checkers and screen savers. Crash guard programs such as First Aid for Windows can also cause problems.

Was in a great lobby yesterday, no modders when I got there and almost the entire session stuck together, about 20 of us.
Before I got there I think a modder gave the majority of them stun guns and they were shooting each other with them on the yacht
Most of us stayed around the yacht, a lot went inside to the bar, we even joined the yacht owner in their apartment on shore.
If only more sessions were like that

There's too much sausage and not enough pasty in that hot tub 
I had a blast yesterday, I joined a lobby and had a 9k bounty put on me by an NPC, I spent the next 25 mins on my bike avoiding the incoming dots. Eventually I popped underground and could see people's dots on the surface looking around trying to work out where I was hiding. Really good fun, eventually some guy figured out what I was doing and showed up in a Kuruma. I didn't even bother trying to shoot back, he deserved that one after chasing me around for ages
Might get someone to put a bounty on me and do it again, it's thrilling!

Join the crew there's a good few of us on every night who'll be able to help run you through some missions to level up and make some easy money to get started.
I'm usually on most evenings, add me to friends (my ingame name is Slashb0red) - just drop me a shout if you spot me on and we'll run some
