Is there anything like a level requirement to joining the various factions? Also, is it better to send a request on the forums or try to find a faction representative in game?

Write a letter IC or find someone ingame, either is fine. But you'll need to meet up IG to join.

There's no requirements to join a faction, but you will likely be given a task IG to prove your worth.

Standard task is to obtain 5 bear asses, you will be penalized if you bring back the entire bear

Ring the bell in the Estate/Houses and see what happens

If you're having any issues contacting any PCs in-game, try the DM channel in game.
