Regular Membership:
Once you have clicked on the link above and completed payment on PayPal, our membership chair will add you to the email lists and wiki. This is a volunteer-run organization, so new members may take a day or two to be processed, but you’re free to come use the space before you receive your setup emails.
Superuser (Keyed) Membership:
After three months as a regular member in good standing, you are eligible to apply to be a keyed member. Send an email to membership at crashspace dot org to let the membership chair know you’d like to apply, and they will email the members-only list for nominations or objections. The initial three months as a regular member are a way for us to get to know you. Be active on the email list, attend meetings, demonstrate responsible use of the space. Once you’ve been accepted, the membership chair will get you all of the information you need to upgrade.
Cancelling:
If you would like to cancel your membership, sign in to PayPal, and cancel the recurring payment to Collaborative Research Association of Social Hacktivity (see details below). Please do this BEFORE your account renews, or you may be charged a cancellation fee. You may receive an email confirming your wish to cancel. At the end of your paid time, you will be removed from the database and members-only email list. If you would like to rejoin, you may do so at the User Portal.
Note that if the credit card you have on file with PayPal expires without being replaced, we will try to contact you to fix it. If we do not hear back, we will remove you from the system as though you had actively cancelled.
How to cancel on PayPal (as of March 2024):
1. Sign into PayPal and go to settings.
2. Go to Payments.
3. Scroll down and select Automatic Payments.
4. Select Collaborative Research Association of Social Hacktivity.
5. Scroll all the way to the bottom and select “Remove PayPal as payment method.”
6. Confirm that you want to cancel your autopay.
