How to start a Group
 

Self exploratory, help please! I assure you it will be a great group!

Um. Not self-explanatory. Do you mean a club here, a group of friends, a band?

If either of the first two, I'd suggest posting a thread in the relevant forum or subforum and see who responds. Depends on what the "group" is going to be based around. More info perhaps?

Edit: Sorry I misread. I see you said self-exploratory, not explanatory.
Now I'm really confused... :confused:

On anyone's user profile here, there's a section (under friends) called groups.

He wants to know how to make one.

Because of the way the forum skin is you can't see how to create groups because it's black writing on a black background.

If you go to the Social Groups page on your profile and highlight the black area under the existing groups shown you'll see an option to start a new group

How the hell is someone supposed to see that then?

stumbling upon it by sheer luck?

Somebody should make a thread about it.

Right on, thanks dude

:p:

Well played, but my point is this kinda thing should be illustrated so that ppl can see it without someone having to make thread about it.

I don't disagree. I only found out how to create my "Ouchie Finger Club" by searching through the forum for a solution.

All this time, I thought it was a mod privilege.

Alright, another question... how do you start a 'discussion' once you have begun a group? I highlighted the whole page this time, nothing hidden.

Click on the group and highlight the area at the bottom under where it says 'Social Group Discussions'
You'll find a link with 'Post New Discussion' there

Guess I didn't play seek well enough... haha. Thanks dude.

So, what's the group you're making?

It's in my sig, a doom metal appreciation group! I decided to be specific, rather than just a 'metal' group, so others could have some fun and make their own for other preferred subgenres. Open membership if ya interested. :thumb:

Hopefully now that we're all aware of the easter egg here on musicbanter, more groups will crop up for all sorts of things.
