First of all a Staff's message wall is the wrong place to put this as it might go unseen by a member of Wikia Staff. Instead, you should use the form on the Special:Contact/general page to get in touch with a member of Staff about this as they are guaranteed to see it if you send it through this method.

Second, the global bot group is not something that you can just request as it is often simply not needed at all. Most of the time Staff would prefer that you send in a new request for every community on which you would like your bot to be flagged with an included discussion on said wiki. This is so that Staff can make sure that no only are you allowed to use a bot on a wiki but it also lets them keep track of who is a bot where.

Adding the global bot right to your account would mean that your bot is a bot everywhere and it just is not something that is handed out to people very often.

Note: I am not a member of Wikia Staff and what I have said here should not be taken with the assumption that I am a member of Wikia Staff. Instead, if you have any questions regarding what I have said above it would be best that you reach out to Wikia Staff via Special:Contact/general for more information and an official response.
