There is nothing wrong with a server owner changing the location flag. And there are no plans in the short- or long-term to change GameTracker's policy.
I am retired from GameTracker after 11 years and will not be responsive for support requests.

So you are saying that there's nothing wrong on lying where the server is located and take players from other countries to increase the ranking level of a server;
Making it impossible for servers that are truly located in that country to reach a high ranking level because around %70 of the servers are lying with their location taking our players away?

We have been saying that for some considerable time.
It is not against the rules to set whatever location you desire.

I have explained the technical and practical reasons several times in these forums in the past.
