At risk of repeating myself:

You cannot form or join ANY agency at all unless you have paid for a game subscription.

In other words, YES, you have to "be subscribed", "buy a membership", "sign up" or whatever other combination of words you would prefer to use to mean "pay money for premium content".

You can find out how to do this here:

This is a game rule, and not one made or enforced by agency directors, so asking nicely (while very sweet) won't help, no matter how eager you are or how much you love the game.

I promise, you'll like it even more with a subscription! So first get one, THEN start asking if you can join a particular agency. There's always lots of people looking for new talent - but no-one's interested in you until you subscribe.

Happy Sleuthing!

Hi there Golden Eye. I am crunchpatty. I would like to help you.

I'm not sure what kind of trouble you are having exactly, but what I would suggest you do first is post something about how you want to join an agency on one of the threads made by various agencies about how they are looking for people to join them. After you do that, make sure all your pop-up blocking software is off for this site, sit back and watch the offers come rolling in.

Happy sleuthing!

i can't join unless i have JOB/MONEY? where is the fun in that?!! NO FAIR! BOO! the starter of this thread i fins very rude and rubbing the freemembers' noses in it! well even if i had money, i certainly would not let anyone who hates the poor members join expectially the mean snobby person who started this thread. sorry i am antisnob.

Hang on now, there's no need to rub anyone's nose, or anyone's fins, or anyone's freemember or ANYTHING like that. This here's a family site, yo!

Claire, it's not a question of rubbing noses in it, it's a question of saving hassles and disappointment. This thread was started because despite the fact that it's posted all over the place, new people have a tendency to not bother reading and just spam people's recruiting posts, which gets really irritating. So, I thank you for taking the title of the thread seriously and reading it first :)

You're certainly welcome to your opinion, but do you really think that people who don't pay should get the same stuff as people who do? Wanna try explaining what you think is unfair about that?

No one "hates" unsubbed people, Claire. And the person who you called "mean" and "snobby" is actually one of the most generous and helpful people on this site.

The rules of this site are that unsubscribed people cannot join an agency. Period. We didn't make the rules, the administrators of the site did. And they did that because it costs real money to run this site. The owners/operators of the site barely break even with the money they make. So yes, there is some premium content for subscribers. It's the way of the world, and name-calling really won't change that.

I think you probably didn't read this very carefully. You must be subscribed to join an agency. And you are not subscribed.
