For private groups. I've always been curious to see if I've been on some 'do not invite list' in private groups. I often see a mod's name every once in awhile. Do you think you are on any? If so, for which group, and what did you do?
-
This thread feels very negative towards certain groups. With that in mind, I'm going to go ahead and lock it.

I'm important enough to kids on this website to be on a lot of 'people we hate,' 'stupid people,' and 'do not let in group' lists. Of course. ... Luckily the few I know of are groups I get more amusement from laughing at rather than joining. :D

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ctjl96 Who gives a damn, ken? It's their group to run the way they like. If they want to exclude people for whatever reason, they're perfectly allowed. I think you have this delusion that every member should be entitled to membership of any group. That's not how it works. It doesn't matter. Why would you want to go there if they don't want you there anyways? I haven't an inkling of desire to join any groups I'm on a no-invite list for.[/quote] I just hate to see a quality group ruined by a few or 1 individual. Many groups are filled with nice people but you often have (like the admins of BF3 console servers) who are willing to stretch their new found powers onto users in their groups. Admins can ruin many good groups. I understand why the groups like the Mythic group exclude certain users but when an admin bans people from their group because they are also in another group, that is really stupid. Private groups are supposed to be fun, but some people want to think they own a little kingdom and they can feel some power controlling their "subjects" which they can banish for no reason or if they don't like what they are hearing.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] CrazzySnipe55 I've never quite gotten into Private Groups, but if you're in a Private Group like that just -blam!- quit. It's like that person you know who's best friend makes fun of them on a regular basis but they laugh along and shake it off because they still want to be friends with them.[/quote] Good point The group itself isn't bad at all, it is just administration. I got removed for no reason and everyone associated with WAY, FT, and SV were removed from the group with no explanation either. I was told that my presence and the other members presence from similar groups were not a good example of what the group was about. I would say it is more of a controlling method. I don't see too many groups like that but there are a few others. I find trying to control every aspect of what every user wants to post to be a little, annoying.

Well, if you want to completely kill your group of activity, not accepting members is one good way of doing that. I think groups should welcome all members, it's just a matter of [i]when[/i].

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Tom T [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] spartain ken 15 sapphire's little[/quote]Oxymoron! BURN HIM, BURN HIM, I SAY![/quote] I suppose you are right tom, I did say quite an oxymoron as Sapphire's "sear's" list is huge and has almost 100-200+ user names collected on it. But it is funny cause only 10-20 people ever post out of the 1,000 people who joined.

All I know is that I and four of my alts are on the Sears list of Sapphire. Y U NO get Bruce Almighty jokes? Makes me so mad.

I am sapphire's little sears policy list because if you are seen as being a threat to the Sapphire empire or HQ does not like you, they kick you out of the group. That is how everyone from SV and FT got removed from Sapphire for no reason. Shame too, Sapphire was a good group. Personally I think if you have a no invite list though, that is not good. The group admins then have this idea that they want to exclude members of the community and are willing to do so at any time. [Edited on 06.25.2012 4:37 PM PDT]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] The Sage Of Halo HFCS will never take me off :([/quote] They have one? You're on it? I hope I'm not on it...

I have a tendency to speak my mind and can come off rather offensive when I don't mean to. So I'm sure I'm on a list somewhere...

I don't think I'm known well-enough to be on a do-not-invite list.
