Hello everyone, today we are pleased to announce the newest version of our server, which we have been developing since May, is near completion, and that you will soon be able to enjoy experiencing it in-game. This update, announced as 3.0, includes various modifications such as a new core for our multigamemode, which allows many new things in term of possibilities. We've also taken the opportunity to rewrite a lot of scripts at the same time, which should improve both stability and ergonomics of the server. There are also many comfortable updates for users that  will be unveiling as you dive into this topic.
 
 
I recommend watching this short video made by @Rhae beforehand to have a pretty good/basic understanding of the server.
 
 
 
 
Now that you've seen a sneak peek type of a gameplay, let's get down to some details!
 
Let's start with clanwars:
You can now make up to 20 clanwars simultaneously, regardless of the gamemode: clanwars rooms are dynamically created and then exterminated after usage, so you don't have to wait for your turn launch several clanwars of the same gamemode anymore!

You can distinguish clan war arenas easier than ever! When you open the lobby, at the top there will be 2 buttons, one is called 'Arenas' while the other one is called 'Clan wars'. At the clan wars you will see a number indicator closed in brackets, which means the currently running clan wars.
 
We've also taken the opportunity to improve map selection prior to sending a ClanWar Request, which was not very practical in the past:


 
 
Statistics:
Statistics page has also been redesigned for greater clarity, with the option of viewing statistics in Public/ClanWar Rooms. This gives the players a better overview for the performance of a given player. The statistics page still needs some refinement because we plan to add more statistics for clan wars mainly, with what you can get a clear overlook of a player's performance.

Not to mention, we decided to add a new, played-based ELO system, which will be called personal elo. You can gain personal ELO from clan wars.
 

 
 
Training arena:
We have redesigned the interface to make it look more practical, and added new options such as global checkpoints that retrace Top 1's, or the ability to use the most recent warp of a person in the room. Radar will also now only display people on the same map, rather than everyone in the room.
 
You also have a full control of your checkpoints, in regards of size, color & opacity. You have the ability to turn off/on the given checkpoints both local and global. The difference between the global & local checkpoints is the following: At the local checkpoint, checkpoint will be generated everytime you beat your own top, and you can have a good comparision of the fastest round of yours; the global checkpoint is the checkpoint of the faster player on the map.
 

 
 
Interface Switch:
You now have 2 options for your in-game interface, the first being the default, which is a bit different from the usual and freshens up the game a bit, but we know that some people prefer something more classic, so you can choose interface number 2, hence giving you the ability to decide what is the most convenient for you!
 
 

 
 
Scoreboard:
We've rewritten our entire server scoreboard, which was a real source of lag. This new, smoother, more ergonomic scoreboard will delight you! Finally, this scoreboard supports the scrollbar functionality, which was lacking before, you now have the possibility to drag the scrollbar if the player count of the arena reaches a given count, and it is even more convenient to browse players of the scoreboard.
 
Besides, we have added a feature, where you can see the players' point in clanwar arena, without having the join the arena, so you can easily find out who is performing the best at a clanwar.
 
 

 
 
Topwins/Topkills:
 
We have also decided to add topwins & topkills leaderboard for gamemodes which do not have the possibility to record the fastest toptimes. It comes in handy to determine those players who are used to the given map and know how the map's mechanic work and have the advantage and experience to win as many rounds as possible as well as kill their opponents.

The topkills & topwins interface can be switched by pressing the arrow buttons. To switch from view to view, press left or right arrow when the panel is open.  
 
 
PDD powers:
We've introduced some new powers in the powerdd, as well as fixing the laser that wasn't working, and the spawn of powers has been slightly reduced at the same time.
 
 
Invisible
Makes your vehicle invisible for a few seconds No Brake
locks your accelerator pedal for a few seconds Ramp
Creates a ramp behind your vehicle Timewarp
Accelerate your gamespeed for a few seconds  
 
New arenas:
We are introducing 4 new arenas, as follows:
- Catch
- Race Alpha: player-selected maps that look more like DM/OS.
- Race Vanilla: classic race maps also chosen by race players.
- BW: A room we hope won't be useless. We're trying this one out in response to demand, but if it doesn't prove its worth, it may disappear in the future.
 
 
Security:
Following the various incidents that occurred recently, we have strengthened the security of our server at the script level. We are taking advantage of this to activate options in mta's anticheat, which blocks certain applications that allow fps locking for example: (fraps...) or some pingswitcher software.
 
Besides, we decided to implement some sort of monitoring to our systems, to prevent the explotitations of vulnerabilities in the future, and also an auto detection system for some sort of data alteration which will result in a report to the higher ups, and an automatic moderation system that will punish people accordingly.
 
New admin system:
Our admin system has been completely reworked, as we have lacked some features & had some issues with some sort of punishment in the past. The new admin system comes with an admin management tab in our panel for admins, making it even more convenient for them to use the necessary disciplinary actions, or transfering a map to another arena as well as handling the events.
 
TFF 3.0: The main points of this update

Update:Performances: Optimised most of our scripts for a better performances
Feature:Core: New core for dynamic room creation
Feature:Clanwars: Dynamic clanwars (20 max in same time)
Feature:UI: Complete new ui for the whole server (except garage)
Feature:UI: Possibility to choose 2 types of UI in F7>Interface
Feature:Panel/Clanwars: Maps picker UI/UX is now improved
Feature:Scoreboard: Complete new scoreboard much more optimised
Feature:PowerDD > Invisible: Invisible vehicle
Feature:PowerDD > Timewarp: Gamespeed for your is faster
Feature:PowerDD > No brake: The vehicle you hit will accelerate continously
Feature:Rooms: We introduce 4 new rooms Race Alpha, Race Vanilla, Catch, BW
Feature:Training: Added possibility to use someone last warp and many more thing to discover
Feature:Respawn: New respawn system to replace rewind (was causing performances issues)
Feature:Admin: Reworked whole admin system
Feature:Anticheat: New securities to prevent cheats/elements data manipulations, disabled by default fps changer software & pingswitchers.
Feature:Pingchecker: Clanwars rooms are now under ping checker if system detect more than 3 spikes per round you get killed
Bugfix: Voteredo: Amount of necessary votes won't decrease if someone leave the room
Bugfix: PowerDD > Laser: Laser power has been fixed
 
 
In conclusion, this is just a glimpse of the various changes, but there are many other improvements that you won't see directly, or comfort additions that you'll discover as you go along, which is why all this has required months of investment! 
We'll let you know a little before we roll it out, as the deployment will involve a lot of changes, and we'll have to shut down the server for about 1 hour, if our estimates are right, to switch over and check everything in production.
We'd like to thank all our players and look forward to keeping this server going, even if some of you would like us to do otherwise.
 
Regards,

We will think about seems like lot of people not happy with current situation.

I really liked the server because they played a lot of good people. Then , I wrote and application and they accepted but unfortunately I have not been active for family reasons. then I went to play LxG# server and I wrote to application that they accepted, but it is also closed. In 2017, I decided I wanted to be a member of a strong and big team In 2017, I decided that I wanted to be a member of a strong and big team and then I managed to get into TfF, which I was very happy about and was a part of for 5 years. Unfortunately, the end of university was very busy so I couldn't play actively and so I was dropped from the team due to inactivity.

Honestly, even if Rhae had abused his rights, with this kind of report, you’d get absolutely nothing. You bring a plastic knife to a gun fight.

Tell us about yourself (Personality, Where you're from?, How old are you?)
My name is Inspra, 21 years old, Estonia
 
Tell us about your MTA history briefly
Started out playing in FFS early-mid 2016, got to know the general MGM community and people in this game thanks to that server. In there I primarily focused on PTP on my first half, where I received Juniorship, on the second half I was kicked from it and started focusing on Shooter. After I got banned around 2019, I moved to FoXX to have a new place to play. I stopped playing there after some time due to losing interest in the game, that's when Lumiverse opened and I applied. I called that community home and its staff family for many years.
 
Tell us about your previous clans and reason for departure
The Crew (2018-2019) (Left around March-May 2019) (Member) - Left because the leaders promised but never delivered.
 
Nitrous Racing (2019-2020) (Left 10.08.2020) (Community Manager) - I left twice. First time it was due to a dispute with a leader, we talked about it, shook hands and left it in the past, so I rejoined. I stayed there for a few more months before leaving due to feeling like I don't belong in that clan and it not being the place I see being a part of for the upcoming years.
 
Lumiverse (2020-2023) (Left 09.08.2023) (Intern & Reports Supervisor) - As close as they are to me, I left due to the lack of activity that should be expected from such a project. Even thinking about leaving it felt weird in a bad way for me, but it's something that would of happened sooner or later.
 
Why do you want to join "The Favoured Few"?
I have been observing the community for a while, to see, if I'm making the right choice or not. I see this clan having heaps of potential, if everything is done properly, and I wish to be a part of it when that happens.
 
How can you be useful for "The Favoured Few"?
Throughout the years being a Manager / Supervisor, I have gained extensive knowledge in keeping a clan/project internally in order and I wish to put those skills to use on TfF. I know how to solve small discrepancies up to making a restructuring go smoothly, so I'm fit to handle the clans internal affairs.
 
Why should we choose You over other applicants?
You should choose me, because of my experience in internal management.

I am twenty six years old.

i was studying in manisa celal bayar univercity but i have passed with graduation. it's over 6 years ago.

 Tell us about your mta history briefly?
 
im playing this game since 2009. i started to play this game in a small server which one only turkish people were playing.
then i had met with a person who was playing really skilled maps. i saw his gaming style and i was interested with 1.3 dm servers.
then i saw a good team with the name DST = Dangerous Skillers Team. tried to improve my skills to be enough for this team, every passing days i was being better in mta community also DST members wanted me to join dst team and i was finally good to join dst and i joined succesfully.
i have been co leader when i improved my personality. i have been in this clan like 2 years. then it became so boring when dst was dying. people were fighting each other. we were losing team wars by no team feelings.
i started to play on tff server when i left dst team. there were many good players and this server had discipline so i have asked this question to myself  "why should not i play" ?
 but this was not a good dicision for me. i was fighting with tff members till grow up. but now most of tff members are my best friends in this game.
ANYWAY!
then i left dst to join better and mature clans. and i saw xpr team when i was being professional player. 
i was passing good times with xpr members. then i wrote a join request to be a part of them. and got accepted.
but felt so alone when they started to being inactive. and i left by listening what my logic said.

1. Your Nickname: niim0te!8===D
2. Your Serial: - (new drive idk old serial)
3. Admin's Nickname: [T]riX^
4. Server: Main Server
5. Ban / Mute Period: permanent
6. Ban / Mute Reason: "toxic, insulting, unbelievable behavior"
7. Explaination: basically me and 2 other guys (shox and nuriix) insulted someone bcs he beat up some old man in his garden, which escalated into making inappropriate jokes. But i barely said anything, i mainly read the chat and laughed. while that happened there was already an Admin (Evo) to ban shox (so i assume he was aware of shox not being the only one who were insulting) but me and nuriix didnt get penalized. Later that day i join the server to get permabanned by a trix, which i think that the duration is not justafied considering i barely said anything or had many warns ( i had 1 warning for non english in global).
   

Hello @niim0te!,
 
After a few hours of discussion with the staff back then, we decided on a punishment for you and @NuRiiX. To be honest, I was not as involved in this decision as some other staff members, but for me the crucial points were the following log passages:
 
[2023-01-30 17:05:01] [Output] : niim0te!8===D: digga du fetter hurensohnwas für schick standort
[2023-01-30 17:03:48] [Output] : niim0te!8===D: treffen uns am grab deiner mom
 
[2023-01-30 17:06:50] [Output] : shox'dx: junge wieso so still alle
[2023-01-30 17:06:57] [Output] : (Global) 7Poeta~: ._.
[2023-01-30 17:06:58] [Output] : syn.nonamez(retired}: langweilig geworden
[2023-01-30 17:07:00] [Output] : niim0te!8===D: beerdigung
 
[2023-01-30 17:43:49] [Output] : niim0te!8===D: lebt wenigstens noch
 
You were obviously joking about his dead mother. Honestly, this left us speechless. Speaking for myself, I could not say anything like this without feeling any shame.
Also, your words show no signs of regret which makes it even harder for us to reconsider your punishment.
Thus, I would like to ask some questions:
 
1. Don't you think you made a mistake or at least went way too far at some point?
2. Can you imagine to apologise wholeheartedly?
3. What punishment would you give someone who did this to you?
 
- Tim

Hello everyone,
 
First of all, I would like to thank everyone for their patience. Our planned update for mid-January took longer than anticipated due to our decision to expand the number of gamemodes. We wanted to bring a fresh experience to our players, so we added several new gamemodes you may not have encountered before. Doing this took extra time, but we're confident it will be worth the wait.

A big thanks to all players, especially our testers! Your help is greatly appreciated. Although we've tried our best to catch them all, some bugs may have slipped through the cracks. So, we kindly ask if anyone encounters any bugs, please report them as promptly as possible. Without hesitating further, let's reveal our latest update.
 
Minigames
 
Ware This gamemode might be known to most of you as it is a really popular gamemode in MTA:SA. Currently, there are around 26 mini-missions that you have to complete to be the first on the leaderboard and win the game. These mini-missions contain a huge variety of challenges. Despite the fact that we currently have 26 missions, we plan to expand them over time. Color Dash This is also a known gamemode, mostly from FiveM. The main object is to try to stay on the platforms marked with the indicated color. During this gamemode, you will notice there are rocket power-ups, which add more joy and interest to the gamemode itself. Tron This is another well-known gamemode from other platforms. Each player draws a line behind themselves, and your main objective is to avoid touching the lines of others; in the meantime, you ought to drive your vehicle to give others a hard time avoiding your line. The last player alive is the winner. Hay Stack There are 25 levels of hay stacks that you have to climb until you reach the top. Of course, it is not as easy as it sounds because those stacks are constantly moving, so keep your eyes peeled. Fallout Fallout contains 2 sets of platforms: one where you have to stay on the platforms as a pedestrian, and the other where you have to stay on the platforms as a vehicle, and have the ability to knock others off the map while avoiding falling platforms. Dragon  This gamemode is simple but difficult. The so-called "dragon" is a set of platforms that are constantly moving. We call it the "dragon" because it has the head of a dragon. Your main objective is also to stay on the back of the dragon; however, as earlier mentioned, it is not easy because the dragon is gaining more and more speed. Sweeper War This gamemode is very similar to Shooter with a difference in the projectiles, which means that you are able to knock others down by firing a sweeper with a high velocity that is able to push others down the platform. Avoiding these sweepers might not be easy, but you have the ability to jump with your car, making your job a little easier. Red Light, Green Light Squid game fans, this really simple gamemode for you. Reach the finish line by following the signals. If caught moving when the light turns red, you must restart from the beginning.
Glass Bridge This gamemode is another one from Squid Games. You have to guess which platform to jump on, or else the glass will break and you will have to start again. To increase the difficulty of this gamemode, players are only able to respawn five times. Prop Hunt A game of hide and seek with two teams. Props transform into objects and hide while Hunters aim to find and eliminate them. Careful! Hunters only have 100 shots. Props win if the team runs out of ammo.
Run the bomb This gamemode is very similar to catch with the exception of the car change. Instead of getting a new vehicle model, you will get a handling-modified car, which makes it easier to catch the others before you run out of time.
Avalanche You have to reach the top of the road without getting hit by a vehicle. Once you are hit, you will be respawned and have to start over. The first to reach the marker on the top of the road is the winner; the rest of the players' positions are calculated by the distance from the marker.
Gun Game In this gamemode, you have to kill other players with 15 different weapons. Once you've killed someone, your HP will be restored, and you will get a weapon upgrade that may suit you or not. The game is over once someone kills a player with the 15th weapon.
Sumo Survival Drive your vehicle at least 50 km/h to gain a point. First to 120 points wins. Avoid others who can knock you into the water or blow up your vehicle, resetting your points. Start over to collect points again.
Random Car Race To win, you must be the first to complete the map; random vehicles make it difficult, so not only your skills but also your luck are important! The random vehicles can vary greatly, adding to the challenge and making both skill and luck important in determining the winner.
Random Power Race This gamemode is a combination of Race and a little bit of DD. Ghostmode is disabled for this gamemode, and you have the ability to use your powers on others, which can result in slowing them down or the opposite: making your job easier to take the lead.
Jump Race This gamemode consists of custom maps that you have to complete as soon as possible. There are two types of jumps: normal and high. Each map requires either a normal or high jump, or even both of these types.
Danger Zone Try to get into the zone before the time runs out. If you are in the marker when the time runs out, you will get a random vehicle. Players who couldn't manage to get into the marker in time will be blown up. The timer to reach the markers is continuously decreasing.
Cube In this really famous gamemode, your main purpose is to stay on the so-called cube. You must watch out for how the cube starts rotating and try to calculate the position you should be in; however, the gamemode is not this easy because other players are able to knock you down from the platform.
Random Car Derby The base of this gamemode is Destruction Derby with random cars and powers. You must knock others down or at least block them from changing their cars because once 60 seconds elapse without changing the car, these players will be eliminated.
 
 
 
Inventory & Winner Sounds
 
We are pleased to announce that after a long and grumpy journey, we are finally here to announce the inventory. Inventory contains lots of different things, not only you are able to receive and open cases but also have the ability to exchange them with other players on the server. Of course, some items are untradable such as money and TFC. These types of prizes are instantly added to your account. However, with the rest you can trade as much as you want. The inventory currently contains the following type of prizes: TFC, money, Donator, additional stickers slot, sound coin, personal multiplier. Obviously, over the time these prizes can expand.
 
You can probably ask yourself, what sound coin even does. Here comes the second part, the winner sounds. Winner sounds are custom sounds that will be played once someone wins the current round of an arena. These sounds can be purchased for sound coins. Each sound depending on the quality of it worth more sound coins. Of course, to fulfill the requests of our players, you have the ability to add custom sounds and it will not be able to be purchased, however to limit the amount of sounds - as we must say they indeed take up more storage space - we decided that you can only get them by real money. You should not be afraid that the server download time will increase because the amount of sounds as they are going to be added externally, without the requirement to download them.

Inventory system Casino Minigames Christmas event Membership changes
Hello everyone,
 
It has been almost a year since we released our server to the public again. I must say, you have surpassed our expectations with the number of players we currently possess, in the beginning, we had some doubts but as we progressed it started to be clear to us that we are not doing it for anything! Lots of people have come and gone but individually I would like to thank those who did not leave us during the hard times and supported us in spite of having 4-5 daily players who made the most out of themselves to improve the server and the community. Let's not forget also about our lovely players who attend our server day by day, therefore as a gesture of respect, we would like to introduce new updates also, during the holidays, you are going to receive a free donator status starting today until the 2nd of January. This announcement will include newcomers, friends, and updates on the server. Without short notice, let's get down to the business!
 
Almost forgot to say, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! You will receive Donator from 24.12.2022 - 00:00 to 01.01.2023.
 
Before we begin, I would like to tell you the statistics of the server this year.

These numbers are self-explanatory. Thank you all for this year, and I hope we can make these numbers even higher in the next, following year.
 
Santa has tried to do his best, and if you ask me he has achieved the most he could. This time, we will be introducing you to 2 new arenas on the server, and a system that we haven't really run across in MTA.
 
Inventory  
The inventory system is most probably known by everyone from another game. You have the ability to receive cases from events, and logins or you can randomly get a box from daily/weekly/monthly rewards. To open a case, you will need to have a key for the cases, which can be bought for TFC. The matrix of keys and tables:
 
Common $5.000 - $25.000 10 - 100 TFC personnal winner sounds 1 key Rare $25.000 - $50.000 100 - 300 TFC 0.1x - 0.4x multiplier for 1 day personnal winner sounds 2 keys Ancient $50.000 - $300.000 300 - 500 TFC additional slots in the garage 1-5 days donator 1.5x - 1.8x multiplier personnal winner sounds 1-10 keys   3 keys  
 
We will eventually add more case prizes later.
 
One of the main parts of the inventory system is the trading itself. Via trading, you are able to transfer cases & items to another player for something in return - only the cases & items can be traded which are not activated instantly, such as a multiplier, the donator, additional slots, and winner sounds, after activating these items are gone, they are not tradeable anymore.
 
Sneak peak
 
 
Casino The casino arena will be released to the public by the start of the next year, allowing you to spend some time on your luck. The arena consists of 3 types of gambling games, it will evaluate in the future if we feel the necessity to expand.  
Roulette A player may choose to place a bet on a single number, various groupings of numbers, the color red or black, whether the number is odd or even, or if the numbers are high (19–36) or low (1–18), then the croupier spins the ball and the winner is determined by that number. Blackjack The main objective is to have a higher number than the dealer and lower or equal to 21. The dealer cards' count must reach 16 and must stop at 17. If you have more cards than 21 you are so-called busted. Slots This game may be the most automated and easier of all. All you have to do is keep spinning the items, and if there are 3 matches vertically and/or orthogonally, you have won, each slot has the item and row has a different multiplier value.   Minigames The long-awaited game mode is finally at the gate of release. It has been quite a while since we started the development progress of the game mode but we have always found something else to work on as we had lack of motivation of making this arena, however, we never gave up on it, and finally, it is in a state where we can say it is close to its release. However, tests and bugfixes are still ongoing, we do believe it can be released with the next update pack as well, we are trying our best, and finally, have the motivation to finish it also. It is not in the final state, game modes will be expanded and improved over time but we did not want to let our players wait for it longer so we will provide new patches to it incrementally. Special thanks to @Gyu and @CAT for their contributions regarding ideas, testing, & modeling, without those 2, it couldn't have happened in the first place.
Current game modes to be released with the update:
 
Fallout Avoid the falling platform and be the last player alive. Hay The objective of this mode is to climb as high as possible on hay stacks which dynamically change positions. Tron You are driving with NRG-500 without the ability to stop. You draw a line after yourself in the path you are driving and others must avoid hitting your line otherwise the player gets eliminated. Random Car Race This is self-explanatory, each time you hit a checkpoint you will get a random car. Random Power Race This is almost the same as Random Car Race, with the addition of powers that you can use in your favour of yourself. Ware This mode consists of numerous mini-missions to complete, such as maths, landing with a parachute, avoiding bombs, destroying objects, etc. Cube A cube which always moving & rotating, you have to survive as long as you can. Avalanche Avoid falling cars and get to the top of the road. If a car hits you, you are eliminated and have to start climbing again. Sweeper war This game mode is similar to the shooter, except for the fact that the rockets are replaced with the sweeper vehicle, and is usually played on DD maps. Sumo survival The main objective is to reach 120 points. You can gain points by driving at the minimum speed without dying. People are also able to push you to water, hence your points are reset.   12:00 - 24.12.2022 - Christmas tree hunt event We have prepared an event for you. This event will be played in a different arena, in freeroam mode. We have hidden Christmas trees all around the world of MTA:SA, and you have to find them. You will be receiving cases for the inventory system, these cases are randomly picked, so the more you find the more chance you have to get ancient cases, which I must say will be very rare on our server, so this is your chance to gain as many as possible! We have even added a snow effect for the arena, for reflecting the origin of the event: Christmas. That is the reason you have to find Christmas trees. The Christmas trees look like this, all you have to do is to go into the marker. When going into the marker, it will be removed so as the tree. We have added a counter which indicates how many trees are left on the freeroam map.   New garage map Thanks to @AquiL we are able to present you with our Christmas themed garage. We must say, we did not give him too much time because we had totally forgotten about it and noticed him in the last minutes, but asides from that he has - once again - made excellent work! Thank you! Membership changes   First of all, let's start with the bad news, sadly there are some members who were not showing too much interest lately in the clan, and we had to make our choices to move forward and set an example. The following member has been kicked from the clan due to long-time inactivity. Sad to see you go, we wish you the best in the future:  SprayCan  
The following member is demoted due to the inappropriate use of the server permissions, hope this decision is a good hint for him: FlokkZ   There are some people who proved their trustworthiness and managed to show an adequate presence on our server & in the life of the clan itself. Please congratulate the following members for passing their trial period: DraguN Rhae   Since we are in need of help, we decided to recruit the following people as Friends: NeonoX - DM Gyu - Minigames P4wn - DM/Hunter   Friends applications We decided to move friends' applications to the forum for a better overview and management and to solve the limitations of discord regarding message length. In the forum, we expect you to write well-formatted, detailed applications in the future. All the currently open applications are closed, if you want to become friends in the future, you should post your application on the forum!   I would like to thank all people who showed interest in joining the clan, however, sadly we could only pick one member as a newcomer for those who could not make it this time, please do not lose hope because writing a Join Request more times catches our attention and we acknowledge your will to join. Please congratulate the following member: Tiven       We decided to expand our clan roster page, so you will now have the ability to see The Favoured Friends as they are an essential part of our team helping us maintain the server moderation.  
 
 
This is the end of this announcement. I hope you liked it, this time we were focusing a lot more on the looks of it, I hope it was worth working with it this much, and thank you for reading! See you on the server.
 
Best regards,
The Favoured Few

2. Tell us about your MTA history briefly.
I started my mta carrier on 2013 and in DDC. I played there till the first DDC - FOTL team server I mean closed. FOTL merged with ffs and All of our clans and players went to ffs. Played in ffs like 1 year or little bit more and didn't want to continue in that server and started to play in TfF. I got so much good times in TfF and sure DDC
Also I joined small clans in DDC server and in FFS server.
I must stay inactive for some time and In that time I was in UP and kicked. When I came back I joined back to UP and till my leaving I just be in UP and changed my server to Vultaic.
I was active player in Vultaic but Vultaic is closed So now I'm active in TfF again and again and again 🙂 and I'm trying to meet another good players in the servers. Finally, I was in the FOTL clan for almost a full year and after the clan was closed, I'm back and now I want to be where I see myself as family again at TfF.

4. Why do you want to join "The Favoured Few"?
The warming and directing formation is one of the strong bonds between people. I can use them to have a very good family relationship. I can also help with every job in the team. I can help you in any matter whether management or speech or activity. I think I'm good at WFF, I can be useful for WFF Team and Also I'm looking for a good and active Clan with a good WFF Team. Also I can help in WFF things and in Forum things. Most importantly, I want to join because I want to be together with my friends in the same clan and live those beautiful warm and old days again.
 
5. How can you be useful for "The Favoured Few"?
As I explained in the previous section, I can help in clan wars that were especially important in the past but unfortunately not so important in this time period. I think that I have a friendly personality and I want to be here because I see it as a place where I can both help everyone and share what I know, and learn most of the things I don't know. In addition, I think I can help as much as I can on the issues in the forum and the server.
 
6. Why should we choose You over other applicants?
I am a helpful person who loves my job, whatever my task or whatever position I am assigned to, I always try to do my best in everything and contribute to our development as a clan. You can choose me for these reasons and many reasons that I can't count.
7. Something to add.(Discord, Optional)
Thanks for you Attention.
Best Regards,Dreamer.

Dear @vinnyy,
 
First of all, thanks for your report. If you want to go into further detail, feel free to share the whole chat conversation as a file instead of picking out a very few sentences, which only makes your opposite disparage and puts the whole conversation out of context. Therefore, I will only comment on the very important. Enclosed you find two screens [1; 2] with the last phrases of the conversation we had earlier on (which you did not show for whatever reason). If a server admin tells you to stop the conversation about this particular topic, which was mainly due to chat flooding and the overall conversation slipping out of hand, you and others have to do so. In case you continue to comment on it – as your friend and you by commenting on the mute did -, you will receive a punishment. I hope this was helpful to you.

P.S. For the previous conversation we had, I can only suggest to take a look at the following websites:
