Joining Masters "Unattached"

The pool where I swim in NYC does not have a Masters program, but I'd like to be able to enter upcoming meets. Is there any disadvantage to joining Masters as an "Unattached" swimmer? Would i be better off joining a team in the city instead? Do i actually have to swim at/belong to that pool to join? Finally what is "All Star" eligibility? i'm a little confused, and the metroswim website isn't answering a lot of questions.

    That FIMA rule, that said I must be a team member and not unattached to be able to swim at Worlds had me worried as I have always swam unattached. I did find a team though to join, SlowTwitch.com. Its a virtual team of people who frequent the Triathlon web site slowtwitch.com. The team is sanctioned through Southern Pacific Masters Swimming. See you at Stanford in Aug.
