The whitelist is our application system to ensure quality roleplay. You submit an application with your character backstory and RP experience, which our staff reviews before granting server access.

Whitelist applications are typically reviewed within 24-48 hours. During peak periods, it may take up to 72 hours. You will receive a Discord notification when a decision is made.

Applicants must be at least 16 years old, have a legitimate GTA V copy, Discord account, and demonstrate understanding of roleplay concepts through a character backstory.

If declined, you can reapply after 7 days. Review the feedback provided, improve your application, and submit again. Repeated low-effort applications may result in longer waiting periods.

Scheduled restarts occur daily at 6:00 AM UTC to maintain optimal performance. Each restart takes approximately 5 minutes. Announcements are made 15 minutes in advance.

Update your graphics drivers, reduce graphics settings, disable anti-virus temporarily, and ensure no conflicting mods are installed. Delete FiveM's cache folder (AppData/Local/FiveM) and restart.
