New to fivem, how do you pick a roleplay server?

Learn the basic RP terms before your first session or you'll get told off for them without knowing why. Metagaming is using stuff your character couldn't know, like what someone said on Discord. Powergaming is forcing an outcome the other person can't respond to. Fail RP is doing things a real person wouldn't, like not caring when someone points a gun at you. Most rules lists use those words without explaining them.

honestly just go where your friends are. rp is way more fun when you know a couple of people, and they can show you the server's rules without you getting yelled at on day one. if you'd rather start alone, pick a public no-whitelist server that's busy at the hours you actually play. join its discord and read the rules first, because every server has its own and admins notice new people. small servers are friendlier but often die after a few months. have a working mic before you join, nearly all of them expect one.
