If your application for a particular server is accepted, all you have to do is have the FiveM mod installed and join the appropriate server when there's a spot available. The applications also vet for people who might cause trouble or aren't fully committed to RPing with other players. Each server has a different player limit, with some servers supporting hundreds of players while others only support a few dozen. Many such servers require an application process in order to get an invite to join that specific server. The GTARP experience is hosted through hundreds of different servers.
