Someone's gotta say it - the Social Groups

Ok, this may or may not be a popular opinion, but IMO the social groups are a bad thing.
Yeah, it's nice to be able to mess with Autumn and her run for mod, and it is nice to be able to talk to others that need a place to vent and hear from just 'friends'.

However, I think it will divide the Lounge and overall is not a good thing for the Lounge.

It's also harder to keep up with things because it adds more places you gotta check.

I had created a thread about this many months back but no one listened Crying2
So this was your brain child? I just looked in the groups. How is this any different than people just posting threads and others responding if they find it interesting or amusing?

The totally-SD-approved-Official-thread groups which should not be confused with the almost-totally-SD-approved -subofficial threads we see everywhere on the site?

When are important things like DNC's dancing sheep going to be implemented?
