And this is what you're going to hear from me. I don't get to meet most my new registrants face to face, they get invited from other members. I require an application because half of my ls website is hidden to members only, but i don't make applying on the website a requirement either.

It may also depend on what company is hosting the website. Maybe to make it private, you need an application? Just a thought.

Half my members applied online first, so this is a better way to make sure they get in the linkshell ASAP.

If you're that picky, just ask that linkshell if registering online is required before joining.
