In Will's original response he was kind, cordial and completely clear to you on what you should do. Post an introduction, hang around a little bit. He even mentioned that splits like this come up all the time. I understand that you are a little bit upset that you were denied in this box split but you have to understand that if you just said something to the effect of "OK I understand that you don't want a complete stranger joining, I will just catch the next one" none of this would have happened. By starting to call out one of the senior members of the forum, a member who contributes as much if not more than everyone else is just poor form on your part.
It normally takes a couple of days to get your account activated. During that time did you not come across a single instance of a newb meltdown? In the future, just realize that this is a close knit family and the members don't appreciate someone new coming in and asking to participate in box splits and such without so much as an introduction.
Good luck on the other forums, I'm sorry that this one didn't work out for you but if you took the advice in Will's original response this never would have happened.
