Not that it was difficult to get an invite before, but nobody would ever have more than about 6 at a time, and I still hoarded them a bit, for some friends (or secondary accounts for myself) as needed.
But now they’ve just opened things up wide. As of this morning, I have 50 invites, and it’s now an easy little textbox on the main page to get them off instead of going to a secondary page and a foreboding feeling that you’re giving away gold. Now it’s mundane and pointless 😉
So if there’s anybody who hasn’t taken one of the numerous opportunities to request invites from previous threads and is interested, I (and I’m guessing any other member) have 50 invites. Shoot me an email.

I have 50 too, but I’m keeping them all for myself!

Please and thanks.
I need one for a friend, can I do this?
