There is NO other way to become members. Maybe they have scripts in the members only section, maybe their script is old and gone, but they made a script. I thin forever ago rep got into member or something?
But now the only way is a script!
Unless you count two ub3rly newbie scripts, I've never made any :p
I was auto-memberized about 3-4 months ago or so. I wasn't told why, but I'm guessing it was just because I was active (had about 800 posts in like 150 days registered), made useful posts (Had Useful Poster Cup), and was helpful (Got Helpers Cup upon being memberized). I knew
some SCAR/SRL back then, but definitely not enough to get SRL Member for that alone.
So, all I can say is, if you don't want to script for SRL-Membership, it won't be easy, but it isn't impossible. Be active enough, mature enough, helpful enough, etc. and maybe you'll get noticed.
