Removal of existing Social Groups

To be honest, I couldn't care less due to my almost non-existence on there, but it honestly is just a big spam hole. Theres really only a handful of active groups anyway, and 100's of useless ones made every day.
 
They don't seem to get used much anyway.
 
Lol, I can't find the image for it, but it's somewhere on fail blog, anyway, it was a fail about how people who made a group, complaining about how people have several groups of the same thing, when infact, their group of complaining about too many of the same groups, already had four groups in of itself.

EDIT found it:

[PokeCommunity.com] Removal of existing Social Groups
 
I still do object, but at least if we nuke them all no one can cry and say their group was singled out for deletion. Besides, we can always reform the active groups, and such. I know I'm going to reinstate #thepokecommunity Regulars, and my Project EmblemDex group and get them active again. I think the main problem is that there are so many stupid spammy social groups now, that the good ones don't get much traffic, because they simply cannot be found amongst the thousands there. I'm glad that at least something is being done to rein in the chaos.
 
Social Groups > Imitation Social Groups (aka Clubs)

I hate how the current social groups are ALL going to be removed. I've also been waiting for social group ID number 1337 to create a group on 133tness just for the fun of it but it seems I'll never be able to achieve my goal now. x.x

IDs are stored auto incremental afaik, so you might still be able to. ;)
(Unless the table is dropped. :x)
 
It seems like a good idea to me ^____^

Some of the social groups right now are just created and well..left there =/
 
Social groups are going to be permanently removed? Finally! I always found it worthless. Someone invited me to the "Weird Names Group," and I found that to be offensive. :/
 
I really hope things work out with our future system. I think it will, too. But first, NUKE 'EM LIKE SELFDESTRUCT WAILORD!
 
Finally.

Although we're a gonna lose some valuable pastimes.

I'll survive.
 
Well it's not like you guys are giving up on the entire system, so doing a clear out of all social groups isn't gonna hurt anyone. If everything is right with the world, I probably won't even notice when they're gone.
 
I actually agree with this idea. It is true, a lot of the Social Groups are inactive, Spammy, and maybe a clean slate for it all will be better for the Community. The idea of it being moderated is also a nice addition, because it will prevent the cause of the same kind of Social Group being created again and again, and it will keep them clean as well.

I say Nuke 'em all, and lets have a fresh start to it.

Why would you be offended? It's for a group of people with alt code-encrusted names, not for freaks. XD

I think Social Group moderation would be lovely. :P
 
It's easy to revive those active Social Groups, and annihilate the useless...

Well, off to a fresh new start, don't you agree?

And this time, those Social Groups will be efficiently moderated... Say no to spammers!

It's for the "Benefit of Mr Kite..." (Mr.Kite is the PC and all it's members...)

P.S. : Armageddon Mode --> June 10
 
Well, if the new system will eliminate SPAM, nuking the Social Groups might be worthwhile, I guess. So I pretty much agree. Though it is kind of sad for the active groups, since all of their treasured conversations will be wiped on June 10 if they're not backed up...

Who knows, I might join a Social Group with the revamp! :) (But if Other Clubs is basically the same, what's the point...?)

Anyway, proceed with commencing the (worthwhile) nuking! :t100: :t101:
