Why do certain members not allow other members to join projects, and then preach about it?

Question

We are all amateur genealogists. Some are more polished than others. We should be encouraging others rather than nit-picking or putting people down. Not nice

Answer 1

You didn’t provide the project in question but each project can ha rules and requirements that need to be met. Since you dont say which projects are rejecting you, no one can really give a specific answer.
