| 331687 | 2005-03-07 16:19:00 | This has had me bemused since pf1 changed to the new system.So I thought i'd ask. Under "User profiles" there is a statement "xxx is not a member of any public group" What the hell is a "public group"? And how do Bruce & co. know I am not a member of a public group. Jack |

Why do you always act like everything you don't understand is something specifically against you? It's a feature of vBulletin not used here. It can be used to group people into contacts for mailing, or access to specific restricted forums/features etc. That's WHAT THE HELL IT IS. |

| 331693 | 2005-03-08 03:05:00 | Good question, Jack. I've been wondering that too. ninja: Not everyone knows this VBulletin stuff. Why would they - if PF1 is their only forum? |

| 331694 | 2005-03-08 03:50:00 | vBulletin is complicated. it's like that all it means that if the administrator has set any public groups (IE Linux users etc) that anyone can join, that person has not joined any |

| 331695 | 2005-03-08 04:06:00 | So when it says that xxxx dosen't belong to any public groups he may belong to 100 of them? Makes sense???? Jack |
JJJJJ (528) | ||
| 331696 | 2005-03-08 04:16:00 | No. It just means that the user hasn't joined any public groups (if any) He/she could however, be a member of 100 private groups (IE Moderators, Support, Website, Admins etc) |
