Hi
Been in OBC since 1999. I know at one point there was a cap at 150 members, but that is no longer the case. If someone really wants to join, and doesn't know anyone, just send a couple members emails asking to trade. That's how I started out, I believe with Geno Wagner. We do consider ourselves more of a group of friends, rather than traders, which is why we have the reference requirement, we also ask that people understand and are ok with sending out (and receiving) cards randomly. And despite what some may have you believe your cards do not have to have holes, mustaches etc. Usually, G/VG is about average.
Also, anyone applying should mentioned Net54 as we have a lot of members in both groups. And most (perhaps all) like Leon as much as he likes use :-)
If your on the fence give it a try!

p.s. Hi John Collins and Ralph G. miss you both!
