Groups.io does not yet have a web-based fill-in box, but I don't know
how useful Yahoo Group's feature of that type is, when there's no custom
question asked.
At some point in my YG group, to keep the focus on the group subject, we started to restrict memberships. In our website and on the group page we stated clearly that only subscription requests with a short introduction were accepted.
Members wishing to join the group used the Yahoo box to introduce themselves and explain in a few words why they were interested in the group.
Pending members with no description were contacted by the moderator in charge and kindly asked to come out of the dark.
It worked well.
