Yep, that's right... let's crash 'poly's server by letting everybody make their own unique civgroup.

I think it could be very abused. But it's Markos call.

We need a trolls group and a spammers group. I admit there may be slight overlap.

If the trolls group and spammers group were admin assigned (ie. the person constantly gets whacked by Ming's ban stick for those reasons) I could understand them being an "honorary" member, but not everybody should be able to join those groups.

With such a group you will see a massive rise in spamming and trolling to get added to the group.

I agree. Hence the need for a special new spamming and trolling mod to administer the groups.

YEs, I am annoyed with the demogroup people... they are demons- I have had to spend more time per day on apolyton and join all the groups to keep one post ahead of them! It's a lot of work! and it's tiring me out!
