Hey , I was wondering how you guys met mta and ended up in RaFS :)

I'll tell my story first! :lol:

It all started on the 4th ofMarch when I bought my GTA San Andreas
I searched everywhere about how to play San Andreas online (If I had known the name MTA SA, I would've immediately find it <_< )
after searching for hours I found a site called
http://gtat.org/
That site has changed drastically (it got integrated in Sa-MP)
The GTA Tournament I played in march had alot of bugs , game crashes and server connection problems
I was so excited when I started to play
I started in grove street and there were other guys running like ants
basically it was basically a freeroam multiplayer , we couldn't shoot or fight only enter a car and drive <_<
I asked when we would be able to shoot
the guy said : 'well , probably next year'
I was like wtf, this sucks big time
after playing there for like 20 days I quit playing it
I thought there must be a better one (the guy mentioned something about blue core)
I searched further, a week later I found mta, the current one!
after installing it, I went in a server called 'Gamersedge' because there were 32 player slots :lol:
Considered it as the best server , with great maps, but now regret it that I entered it:(
well then after playing there for like a month , it was getting boring
then my search for a new server started!
Entered RaFS on the end of may I guess (clan was already formed :( , I liked it and am still playing there (nice ppl and great maps)

Nice story eh? B)
If i am myself and you are you who is me, i must really know who tha eff me is, you know?

well if you really want to know, here we go.. :rolleyes:

I've been playing MTA since their very first release (that was back then, for GTA3), I was anxious to try the SA version when it came out I downloaded it right away.. in the first days I played on random servers, once I met this guy named TENCHU who wanted to form a clan and asked me to be in it.. that was the first and last day I saw him on any server but he gave me this idea to create a clan.. not so long after that I found driver2, the best racer I've ever seen, I asked him if he wanted to create a clan with me and the other guy and he accepted.. :) I've already wrote about that day in this thread, here.. I believe TENCHU had some problems with SA that's why he couldn't play anymore, too bad maybe he would have been a goof RaFS member..

well that's it, we played together on other servers until he bought his own and wrote a script for it (back then only a few places had scripts).. more and more ppl started playing on it, we met the current RaFS members and formed the clan on May 1st? (plz someone correct me if I'm wrong).. ^_^

I played MTA since the first official version was released at end of January. First I played at servers named "Best Races". They had nearly only race maps and a limit of 10 players. At best times there were 3 servers of them. But one day there was only one left and after one week this was gone too. So I played at several servers and looked for one with great race maps. So I found RaFS server and only played at other ones when it was full. I saw that at the evening hours when I played there were almost the same players every evening and thought they were nice. One day I talked to norby and another day with driver. I was at the server when the clan was founded and very glad to be asked to be a RaFS. I think positive about the fact how this developed. Didn't thought that it could last so long. So keep on the good work at RaFS. :D

i got into mta earlier this year, when i finally got broadband in my bedroom. i think i first read about it on gtagaming.com. the first server i was in was a 32 player limit, uk dedicated server. it was full of obnoxious pillocks and it kind of ruined my fun. after a few weeks i saw RaFS on the list, tried it out. my earliest memory of rafs is norby doing reverse wheelies down a hill on the sanches. clearly he made a good impression, i've been a regular ever since.

Those are some cool stories haha. My story is actually almost the same as Baby's story...I too started playing when MTA 1.0 had just been released, and I too played on the Best Races servers (together with BloodThirst). So when those servers closed we too had to look for another server, and just like Baby we ended up in RaFS. Only difference is that I wasn't in the server when the clan was formed, so I joined later on, followed by Thirst. :lol:

The main fact why you weren't there would be the thing that is founded in the evening / night hours and you play at day most times. That's even the fact why I didn't knew you und Thirst when there was the questions to let you both join :P

actually, bloodthirst and bloodyhell played a lot on the server at the beginning, I recall them getting lots of records but after a while they stopped playing for some reason and came back after the clan was formed.. only few knew them at that point that's why they weren't accepted right away.. :(

@ serab: haha yeah I remember :lol: it happened on Chiliad Climb, we got bored of doing the race and I accidentaly found out that trick.. good days!

well, I found mta by accident cos I'd completed GTASA for about the third time, I was overjoyed that it's racing only, I can't stand deathmatch... most servers are full of stupid maps like gofastFTW so it was a joy to find one that runs mainly races and good ones at that, plus there's usually an admin around to kick cheaters.

I started my own server recently (goatland) but tbh I spend most of my time on rafs.

My only gripe is that YOU GUYS ARE SO YOUNG!!!!!! I feel like a right old git on this server. :)
Nobody with a good car needs to be justified.

my story is similar to Serabs. I installed and played it obsessively since it got released. being a member of GamersEdge that's where i hung out until i got sick and tired of the stupidity and childish behaviour on there. so i put down my gamepad for a few months. then i had an urge to play again and i hit RAFS by accident. There was nobody in the game playing, but i stuck around because the map playing was smugglers run (my favorite). then i think bushwick came in and we got chatting, and then sirdrownsalot and a few others. everyone was incredibly friendly and i felt at home straight away. :)
