    wow erewen? i cussed em for a week trying to sign up, had to sign up through yahoo groups, and all kindsa hassles it seemed. Not sure why they'd deny you access. Was it just because of the ad? or had you even gotten that far? their "rules" can be taken in lots of different ways, but the main one is it has to be free. They request you "give/offer" something first, but i didn't realize that when i first posted to "wanted". I did however write the moderator there first, kind of explaining what i wanted to post, and asking how i might go about it. After not hearing back real soon, I went ahead and submitted my request to place an ad, and had an email the next morning saying it had been posted, and another from the mod saying "this should work if we do this" and changed it just a little bit (not sure exactly what it was now though), but i used a replica of that ad for posting again in another area. I'm not sure, but some areas could have totalitarians, where others are more layed back. I really have very little clue, these are only my guesses, I'm actually still kinda hoping the lady that set me up will write and say "i just heard from my long lost best friend and she wants your job!" ; )

    No reason was ever given. I just received standard form emails from the mod saying my request to join was denied. I tried kicking that door down again last night after hearing of your success, but its too early to hear from them yet. Who knows, maybe the third time IS the charm. Good luck on your new "job". If anything is of interest you definitely get first shot at it!
