Just a curiously random thought i had while grinding in my favourite MMO.
If we do lose all the group data, to the point where we lose the groups themselves and they have to be re-created, what's to stop some unscrupulous fellow re-creating a group that isn't theirs. Let's face it. We've got some absolute morons on b.net, the petty "group wars" said morons engage in have the sole purpose of destroying the other group, usually by taking it over. What better way to take it over than being the sole user with full control over that group's name.
So this is assuming groups get removed totally (which might not happen, so just ignore me if the group names, members and their control levels are definetely safe)
* Will there be any security surrounding re-creating groups?
* Will any action be taken if prominent groups are hijacked as a result of the possible wipe
* Should group owners take action to record their ownership of their groups, just in case?
