Your very own usergroup

Post #1

Post by otseng »

Now, you can have your very own usergroup. Post in this thread the name that you'd like. I'll make sure the name conforms to the standards of this site and deduct 2500 tokens from you. Then, you'll be the owner and member of that usergroup. By default, people will be able to freely join your group. Or you can choose to confirm membership requests.

To request your personal usergroup, provide the following:
- Name of usergroup (40 character limit)
- Description (255 character limit)
- Note if you want to confirm membership from others (default will be no)

For an additional charge of 10,000 tokens, you can also have your own subforum for your usergroup. Please provide the following info:
- Name of usergroup (40 character limit)
- Description (80 character limit)

Subforum activity requirement:
- Subforums must maintain some activity in it. Subforums that do not have any activity for six months can get removed (posts made to simply bump threads do not count). There will be no refunds given for any subforums removed.

Additional restrictions:
- Do not add people to your group without their permission. Otherwise I will delete your group.
- Descriptions cannot point to personal websites. If a link is found to point to inappropriate and/or offensive material, the group will be deleted.

1/3/2011 Modification:
- Changed group price from 500 to 1000 tokens
- Changed subforum price from 2000 to 5000 tokens

1/12/2013 Modification:
- Added subforum activity requirement

12/31/2016 Modification:
- Changed group price from 1000 to 2500 tokens
- Changed subforum price from 5000 to 10,000 tokens

Hello,

How many tokens do I need for a Psychology/Sociology Subforum? If I don't have enough may I ask others to contribute?

This subforum will encompass all the social sciences:

Economics, political science, human geography, demography, sociology, psychology, and humanities.

I believe I read that it takes 5000 tokens for a sub-forum. I would be willing to kick in 1000 tokens if such a thing is allowable.

Edit: yes, the OP says 5000 tokens for a sub-forum. Not sure if a usergroup must first be created for 1000 token. The OP language seem to imply that.

And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.

I believe it's only 5000 tokens for a subforum. When I created the LGBTQIA Refuge, I was only charged 5000 tokens (not 6000).

Yes, people can get together tokens to create a sub-forum.

If a sub-forum requires a group membership, then a new group must also be requested. If it's open to everyone, then just 5000 tokens is necessary to create the new sub-forum.
