they denied you, you got another email address you could try and join up withNo Links in Signature by site rules - MSE Forum Team 20 -
I know some groups deny membership if you don't actually write anything on the application except your name etc. To prevent auto sign ups, they like to have a few words from you saying that you want to join up to help the environment and have some items to give to a new home etc etc etc.
The list owner should tell you why they have denied membership though. Have you tried emailing them to ask?

i did fill in the application bit - i put "i have a few things that i would like to recycle as i think they will of use to some other people but unfortunatly i have no more room for them and i really dont want to skip them but give them a new lease of life"
i asked why i wasnt accepted and just got a blank email back!!

Try this instead, it's the same as freecycle although is national rather than local

A lot of areas also have a Realcycle group, which is exactly like Freecycle. These can also be found in Yahoo Groups.Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before0
