Usergroups

Up until now we haven't made use of the usergroups feature of the Forum and we've rarely been asked about it but having said that, we're interested to know if anyone would be interested in having some different groups here in the Forum (such as fan groups and the like). It may be that we have no real use for them but we're interested to know if anyone is a fan of the idea since other boards do make use of them and whether you'd like to see it here.

I'm up for it. Knicks fans unite!!

I think it's worth a try. If in the end there's no real use for them we can still move on without usergroups.

I want in on the other usergroup.

But since that won't be happening...

I guess it would be fun to try it out. I'm up for a trial run.

would be interesting to try..

I think it'd be good. I know who the Raptor fans are, but it might be a way to attract more members and maybe keep them around longer.

I know who the Raptor fans are.

Both of them?

At least I wouldn't be grouped with the Lake...er Kobe fans

That's the only reason I didn't show too much enthusiasm, half the "Laker" fans can't spell let alone read.

Touche for this round my nemesis, for I shall conquer you soon...very soon.

Continues scheming against his foe...

Indeed, there's definitely no risk in giving it a shot. I appreciate the feedback so far.

So, apart from groups dedicated to each of the NBA teams and I guess NBA Live and NBA 2K, what kind of groups would you be interested in?

it may be time for the ron mercer fans of the world to unite as one

I believe you've already accomplished that.

What about groups devoted to fans from the different countries around the world? It might help to promote the noble art of racism!

I nominate myself as Spurs and Tim Duncan Usergroup president!

The pinoy usergroup will dominate all with massive numbers.

We could certainly do countries/regions depending on interest. One thing to keep in mind is that we'd need a group leader to oversee applications to join each group and those members would need to be fairly active so they could handle those requests. To that end, a usergroup for each team might be excessive.

i see the dominance of artificial intelligence then.

Hmm... My dynasty affiliation might affect my goon squad member badge. I'd be a Blazers fan, but their fans tend to be annoying. Hmm... Decisions decisions.

Well as I said, if we're going to do individual teams we'll need to have active members to preside over those groups and handle requests to join them, so it might be a bit ambitious to have groups for each for the 30 teams. Any suggestions for groups, feel free to throw them out. Anyone interested in handling group leader duties, by all means speak up as well.

I'd definitely be willing to lead a group, since I'm on here all the time anyway, whichever one I join.

The pinoy usergroup will dominate all with massive numbers.

With its massiveness it will eventually self-implode.

nope, the Hong Kong/China/Taiwan one would!!!
