Unless you're openly commenting on it no one can see you're new when you apply, I don't think at least
GM's can view your post numbers when you apply by looking at your profile. Just like I can look at your post count right now.
Don't know that many do. Its worth considering that D&D/PF are very popular systems so you are competing against 20-50 other RTJ's potentially.
You also only joined the site on Saturday (based on when you posted in the Beginner's thread)? Your start hasn't been slow. GM's don't tend to respond to everything right away. Especially when they have a bunch of RTJ's to look at.
