Sorry, but what's this Group Membership thing on the public profile? It's blank for almost everyone, and how do I sign up for a group membership anyway. Thanks in advance! :p

There are no public groups that you can become a member of.
lizardfuel55 on 15/12/2004 at 19:15
But well, why bother including that in the profile then? :erg:
David on 15/12/2004 at 19:18
Because we may have public groups in the future.

...and, vBulletin shows Group Memberships in the profile per default.

O okay, that's clever of you. :)

Bringing this thread back because I was wondering the same Lizardfuel55 was. But I have another question too.
What is a public group in this sense? TTLG political parties? Real life political parties?
Public groups? :confused:

From what I've understood users in a certain group can gain benefits or 'punishments'. Like the disability to edit their posts (David pointed this possibility once)

Sadly, they would be parties that you would not receive the invite to. :(

So different groups could have priviledges over the others?
Hmm... What about images? Have you considered using group memberships against spambots. I don't know if it were possible, but have a full membership group that would allow all the different advanced options to work. Like IMG tags that the spambots use to count posts read. Those in full membership group could have access to all the different tags.
Of course this is a bit too much work, but if spambots became a really big problem.
