Nepaali-jee, 'Opposition to Feb 1' got evolved as a way to exclude the class of people the club members were sure to be uncomfortable to be with. Invitation/recommendation was introduced to avoid non-existing people from entering. The basic criterion is that at least one existing member should know the new entrant. So, anybody who had been against Feb 1 or can make such statement when introduced (as I said, just to make the members comfortable) should not have any difficulty to enter. For those who do not know any member of the club, I would suggest to write to the group (http://groups.google.com/group/nepaldemocracy/about?hl=en ) introducing yourself with sufficient information about yourself for the group to be convinced that you are a real person and you belong to anti-Feb 1 class. The moderators will introduce you to the group and when at least one member support and no member oppose it, it is regarded as acceptance. The moderators will inform you and welcome you to the group. It might take from a few days to a week to finish these formalities. I hope I answered your questions. By the way, I am a moderator of the group. I am just an ordinary member with a modest activity in the group. If anybody is interested, I can also introduce you to the group. Shoot me an email at deepakkhadka@gmail.com . Some important information about the group to those who are interested to join. ● Not all the big shots I took the name are active in the group, if that's what attracts you to the group. ● Most of the postings are congratulatory and thank you notes. ● Most of the active members are not comfortable with criticisms. So nobody criticizes nobody. If you are still interested, come along.
