Time for action — requesting to join a group
Let's request to join a group:
1. Start by finding the group that you would like to join.
2. You will see that instead of the Join this group button, you have the Request to join this group button; click on it:
3. Next, you have a page that invites you to enter a reason for why you want to join the group. Think carefully about what you will write in here. It is usually a good idea to give well thought out reasons for why you want to join as well as expressing enthusiasm for wanting to get involved. When you have given your reason, click on Request:
4. That's all there is to it! You have requested to join the group. When you return to the group listing, you will see that it now says You have requested to join this group.
