True to my word (http://www.isketchforum.net/showpost.php?p=159019&postcount=2) I will be be deleting all social groups that don't meet three points of the following criteria:



are serious
have a sustainable subject (one that will keep the group active with new topics and image)
wouldn't be more suitable as a thread
would create enough interest in a real life scenario for people to meet and discuss something that the topic of the group encompasses, e.g. 'Book lovers' parallels with real-life 'book clubs'.
are intended as a roster for other clubs/websites

If your group doesn't meet 3 of the above critera you may appeal against its deletion in this thread :biggrin: (should be entertaining, lol). Please state your group name and give it's description in your appeal. :razz:

I'll delete the groups when they start cluttering up the social groups area to the point of hindering the 'real' groups.

I think THE REACHERS GROUP SHOULD STAY.. Ahahahahaa... that was a quick slam down.. :P uhh..

Right, well I think it's a very serious matter and we can discuss the problems and solutions around being short... and I think that if people would join it, then we can make sure that us reachers can feel united. I think it's more like a home for the safety against heightism... :P Well not heightism in general, just short ism.. we could even start petitions and rallys against this.. (This would involve real life meets ;)) I'm sure they have short clubs in real life... I'm apart of 3? :D Well I'm in a club already for being short.. :P Gosh.. WE ONLY MADE THEM YESTERDAY.. :P heheheheheh...

Is this not enough? It's a very serious issue like I said.. (So that's one point), I'm sure we can keep it updated with new topics... lots of issues arrise from being short.. new problems that have been discovered and new heightist ways... I can't see where I'd be allowed to put it as a thread... :P Unless I made a thread... Ahh i see I could, but what if it turns out to be huge, I'd prefer to have it archived.. different issues in height and stuff.. yes... And like I said before, we can make rallys to oppose the tallies out there ;)

So yes. That's my appeal :)

Also keep the geek/excel group. :) Lots of people like it.. :)

They are. I'm glad someone sees this in the same way I do. Sometimes people just need to be reminded of the seriousness of the issues out there...

Oohh I know how.. oh yeah peter babes ;) you know you don't want to delete them..

I <3 Excel - coz it's awesome
(coz simple is smart, peter, right? ;))

1) seriousness: it's serious! excel is a major programme and is veryyy useful... it's a shame most people don't realize how useful it can beeee (which leads to my next point)

2) sustainable topic: not just one! but many! we could teach others different things about excelll being the geeks we are - like, I have no idea how to work macros or vlookups (okay, yes I admit it, I don't know!) or whatever but there are people in our group who know how to use them and I could leaarn :geek: I haven't asked yet, but I would!

3) thread vs group... groups are nicerrr... like family... a family of geeks <3 (plus a serious reason is that if we talk about diff things in excel like macros or lookups or cell functions it would be so much more cleaner to have a new discussion title for each within the group; yes I'm obsessed with organization)

4) I'm sure there are geek clubs and excel clubs out there...


5) roster for other clubs/websites... excel is a one-man show lol XD
