There was a GE a while back that I and another member really wanted to join. I was a couple weeks shy, but she was just a few days shy of the required join date. We were not allowed to join that GE
It sucked but personally, in my case, I'm happy that I waited til this previous GE to sign up for the first time. I really got to know lots of people here and got to watch a couple GEs from the sidelines to see how it goes down.
Although we would love to have you join this one!!
I do hope admin okay's it!
The more the merrier! You can sign up...but they may delete your post. Or they may let you join in the fun! I don't think it would hurt anything.
