With the requests pinging around here, I'll say it explicitly - I'm a member, and I'm happy to send an invite to any active HNer.
I realized I made the same mistake as spf13, but you took the time to find my email from one of links in my profile. I really appreciate the effort you took :)
Subreddits aside, I have taken a liking towards Designer News - news.layervault.com
I'd love an invite if anyone has one. One of my open source projects appeared on there in the past, a lot of people were asking "can it do this?", "how do i do that?" type of questions. It was super frustrating not to be able to respond to people with the answer they wanted because I didn't have an account
Otherwise if you click the sign in link you get: Designer News is a place where the design community meets. Registration is open 12PM to 3PM Eastern or until available accounts are exhausted.

... don't get why it's a closed community. I believe the idea is that people get in by invitation; if a member ends up being a problem (i.e. gets down-voted too often or something) then not only are they booted but so is the person who invited them. This being the case, people need to exercise some care before sending an invite since that person's behavior will be reflected back on them. It's an interesting approach…
> then not only are they booted but so is the person who invited them. I understand why this was put in place there but that's the reason I don't really invite others. I have no way of knowing whether he or she will be down-voted. Still, it's better to get kicked out and know that, than being shadow-banned and not knowing what attracted that.

I can invite interested people to lobste.rs. Need your email for it. "Invitations are unlimited, but persons you invite will be associated with your account in the user tree and you may be responsible for them if they cause problems. Please use your discretion when inviting persons you don't personally know."
You don't personally know me ( yet ), but I'd much appreciate an invite! I'm not a spammer. Use your discretion. :)

An invite would be welcome :)
