    Recent posting in a group was going around sites rules so posting has been removed for now. The Staff will review if they will be return or not. The issue is theres no way to moderate this unless Staff is going to check these groups regularly which is unlikely. Not sure what the point is in having posting in these groups when you could do so in the forums...

    mmmh, i'm almost sure that this has something to do with bittorrent invites again.

    as for the reason: fst has a linux section, but not an apple section. so the apple group was a place where mac users could meet.

    even if we are a minority, there are quite a few mac users on fst.

    then maybe a subforum would be better than a social group for that purpose

    fact is, people will abuse of this feature, it's to hard to moderate all these groups

    this is exactly what i was suggesting with my post. i just was to shy to ask for it directly.

    of course i would rather see an apple subforum in the software section than a crippled social group.

    If you want a MAC forum thats a resonable request. We hope its as active as the other sub forums there. Since you were involved in the group you would know if it was or not. Though moderting a bunch of groups isnt really possible...

    absolutely. i can understand that very well.

    from my experience mac sections on other (mostly tracker) forums are not hyperactive in comparison to the regular windows sections, but people do post there.

    i promoted the social group only with a signature and 30 people joined (and i'm mostly active in the bittorent section).

    i'm sure if there was a apple subforum in the software section quite a few people would be thankful and exchange their minds.

    so consider this as a proposal and think about it.

    if it doesn't match an expected activity, one can always announce it a failure and cancel the section again.

    thank you.

    edit: if you are positive, give it a month.
