So I was looking at my user CP and I clicked on the groups thing and it says I have 1 group available to join.

Does this mean I was invited to join?...or?

Just havent seen anything else about groups and a quick search yeilded nothing.I'm curious as to how this part of the site works.

Maybe its top secret info and I'm just not one of the cool kids?

I am paranoid and they are all out to get me....but thats beside the point.

And thanks...so there is only 1 group here?

It was the fact that I could only find 1 and nothing else about em that confused me.

yeah... it's just a thing Misha set up for the bead mafia.They're afraid of us, so they have their own little back room where they just talk about vaginas and trade cake recipes.

Mostly.

they wont let me in. The only other room I know about that we can't see is the mod room where the mods decide mod stuff. And talk about vaginas and trade cake recipes.

wait..you have to be approved.....do they test your vagina knowledge or something?i might not pass. im good on the cake recipe part, but a person can only take in so much vagina knowledge

I was thinkin the same thing...but if Doug isn't invited I doubt that I am.

And I cant make a bead for my life so I'm really out I guess.:tantrum:

It's gotta be vaginas and cakes. Technically, glass is in the plastic state.

Will it be a guy room about penises and beer recipes? :D

jethro

Penises and Beer sounds scary to me....But I dont drink.Maybe drunken guys like to talk about penises with other guys??:twitch:

How about a noob group so we can ask each other all the stupid repetitive questions everyone is tired of hearing.

And some regional groups so we can get to know better who is around our areas.

Possibly try to make them self moderating or have a few group members help out and act as mods to keep any extra load off of the regular mods?

I would help out as much as I could...but then again nobody here really knows me from Adam.

Just ideas.I dont know how much trouble it would be really,this is the only forum I have ever even attempted to be an active member in so I'm clueless about the behind the scenes work.

If your tired of answering questions Wiki it...... and then instead of a response point to the wiki page....

i tried building an FAQ for you guys.... but that isnt fair.... it doesnt change you couldnt edit it easy so thus we got a wiki..... Please guys....

But reginal groups i like , i dont know what we will do about groups yet..... a newbie group is a little hard to manage any way....

Peace

The problem with a newbie group is you would have to keep making another one. Newbies get better and don't want to answer the questions they were asking a couple years before. It's a vicious cycle. :D

I'm not tired of answering questions.I'm just getting started.But I know a lot of you are.

And as for the noobs getting better and moving on...well then they can move on from the group and be replaced by new people.

I know for me at least it is a bit intimidating here at times with all of the talent and some of the ego's that come along with that level of work.And I seem to get the most help from people with just a few years or less experience.Yourself included Rob. You have helped me tons wether you realize it or not.

Like I said just ideas didnt really expect anything to come from it just throwing something out there

Ive been here awile and most of us are willilg to help. Thats why I promote this site over any other. I too would like to see a "local" group added though. Knowing help / lessons are just around the corner. Roy

Just to make sure I am not misunderstood. There are many people here willing to help both old timers and new or this place would cease to exist.

However its all about where you are at and what you are thinking about.

It is a lot fresher in a newer persons mind the troubles of basic shaping,holes,problems with melting in etc... so that is mostly why they are more helpful to me at this point.


And yes regional/local groups would be Awesome I would love to have an easier way to get a feel for and get to know the artists in my area.

I really thought more people would have jumped in with other ideas for groups that they would like to see by now??

Maybe rather than groups, just regional threads in the People Connection room?

That sounds like a great idea. I would like to know who all is in North Carolina, specifically the coast.

Don't be fooled by the vaginas and cupcakes - we also talk about penises - no discrimination there.
