Yes, my character was accepted by the GM, by way of a series of private messages. I was given a specific suggestion of where and how to post by said GM, who didn't seem to give a rat's hindparts that it was not posted in the OOC. Quite the contrary, I was asked politely to stick it directly into the CS section and immediately post. 

If your character has not been given an "in" yet, that sounds like something that you and the GM should talk about privately; much as you should have to confirm or eradicate your suspicions that I'm jumping in uninvited. (The short answer on that one is NO.)

My sincerest if this cramps your creative streak.
