User Groups- how to let members join them?; User Groups questions

Is it possible to let members join user groups of their own accord?
(with moderation on who will join what group)

I ask this because I see no user groups selection on member profiles (i mean users cannot select which groups they want to join).
How do I let them join groups I make?

I made a forum that only a certain group can see, and now I don't know how to let members join that group.


My Board Link is: http://z8.invisionfree.com/Battlezone_1_Forum/
But I don't think you'll need it for this question...

Well you see with IF, you have to physcially go into the ACP to change out someone's user group.

However, you can set it so that when a user has a certain amount of posts, they automatically change to another user group.

Edit: Down at the bottom of the regular Member user group, it'll ask you about promoting.

Group Promotion

Choose 'Don't Promote' to disable promotion | Promote members of this group to: {box with list of user groups}
