I've had gmail for around 4 days...still don't have an invite to give out. wtf?

Should I be sending a lot of mail or is it just random and google hates me? ;)

Haha, that's pretty funny. You're kidding, right?

You don't automatically get invites immediately after signing up. The whole purpose is to let users thoroughly evaluate gmail, and then invite friends *if* they feel as though it's a decent service. You can't very well recommend something you haven't had time to evaluate yet yourself.

As for me, it took nearly two months to receive my first invite. Of course, I think most of that was during a dry period in which Google wasn't giving any out at all, so yours may arrive a little sooner, i.e. within a month. :)

I just did realize that I had 4 invites. Don't know how long I had them, but I just now noticed them.

BTW, does anyone know how to change your "reply to all" settings so that when you reply to all it puts everyone in the "To:" line instead of the "Cc:" line. I don't like that.

I got my invite from an ATOT member, and as such I will give back to the community that makes my workdays go so much faster. You three - FishTaco, Applebottomed Gurl, and eber - shall receive three of my 4 invites. My fourth is already gone, so I can't help you there.

The e-mails should be sent already. Applebottom, I especially feel bad for you. Looks like you've been looking for awhile.

Oh do I wish I had a digital camera right now...

But in case you feel sorry for me and feel generous... <nosleep_forthewicked AT yahoo DOT com>

Here, I'll make it worth your while. I came up with a list that illustrates my current Gmail-craze pretty accurately.

Top 10 signs that you've got the GM-flu

10. You have at least 8 different windows open right now to various forums that have gmail listings
9. Your fingers hurt from pressing the refresh button so many times
8. ADD can't be far off when you can't concentrate on your work that you have to check back for invitations every five minutes
7. You use your lunch break to do Gmail invite searches on the WWW
6. You emailed 20 different people in the last 2 days to pester them for invites
5. The last thing you do before going to bed and the first you do when you wake up is... you guessed it, check for Gmail invites
4. Everytime you miss out on a Gmail invite you hang your head and feel worthless and dejected until the next round of invites
3. Your GF thinks you're cheating on her
2. You started wandering around the office looking for co-workers who might look like Gmail users
1. You haven't worked this hard since Cindy promised you a kiss in exchange for a bunch of flowers during your 3rd grade field trip

Someone PLEASE help me out

;)

Thank you ironcrotch, now the madness can finally stop.

I'll be sure to pass on the generosity when my turn comes.

I have an invite to give away. first person to message me on AIM gets it.

I'll UPDATE this post once it's been given away, so until then, its out for grabs.

Seamless won the invite! Congrats! :)
