I've tried joining the Blues Slasher social group by going to the main page, but I don't see a "Join Group" button, tab or link. Am I missing something on the page?

well i think Takkuneg has to accept you, might take time
I also wanted to join it, but after i saw what this group is about i deleted my "join group" ... :D

I already spoke with takkeung. She's as mystified as I am. It's a moderated group, not an "invitation only" so it's open to all. The main page should have a "Join Group" tab.

Again, unless I'm missing something..?

crap ... then i cant help you feel guilty now ...

[blueswan]

No worries. I sent a message to the forum administrator. And it's possible I'm just missing something -- the directions for joining look simple, but maybe I'm misreading them.

It may be that you need a specific number of posts...

Seems to be working now. When I logged in this morning and tried it, there was a "Join Group" tab.

This is sort of a part II to my question about joining social groups: how long after submitting a "join request" does it take to become a member of a social group? (I've had a request in for nine days on one group)

Is it a decision made by the group's moderator?

[TakkunEG]

It's decided whenever the group mod happens to notice it in their Notifications section. It doesn't popup alert like PMs can.

Aside from sections that are 18+, I don't understand the point of social groups. I never see anything in them that is different than what goes on the main boards, so all it does is create a new level of things to check.

[TakkunEG]

Pretty much.
