Von Daniel,

Contact the national office of the organization and/or speak to a member with whom you are already familiar. Asking questions here is not really appropriate because membership policy is something that should only be discussed with knowledgeable members of each specific GLO. As it has already been stated, this very issue is rather contentious amongst the members of GC. You've been given solid advice already and I am backing that up.

If and when you are invited to membership, please feel free to come back and post your story. Until then, you are welcome to join in the discussions but I would advise you to refrain from asking questions regarding membership selection, etc.. Discretion is valued by all groups.
