Why are there "Groups"? What do you do if you have a Group or in a Group? How do you join a Group? Can you just start a Group as 1 person?

You can create a group if you are the only member, but that kind of defeats the purpose.
The groups are for like minded people to get together and talk, plot, organize etc. I am part of a group for people with 1000 Gamer Score in Halo.
You can join a group if it is an open group. If not you must be invited. Hope this helped.

Why are there groups?

To give people a place to chat about things that sometimes aren't allowed in the public forums. Essentially, they're batches of people who talk about topics that more or less relate to a discussion theme. There are some groups that are focused on off-topic discussions, and others that are focused on taking about Halo, Bungie, hippo licking, etc. It's really up to the group to decide what they want to talk about.

What do you do if you have a Group or are in a Group?

Erm...participate, I suppose. If you've founded the group, you should definitely try to be active in it, and make sure to keep fresh content flowing.

How do you join a Group?

Just pick one that you think you'll enjoy. You can

* Check out people's profiles
* Look here for some options
* Iff there's a group that you've heard a lot of buzz about on the forums, you can search for it here
* Some chapters advertise -- you can view those ads in The Classifieds.

There are some groups that you won't be allowed to join unless you're approved by someone already in that group with the necessary privs to approve you -- there'll be a note on that group's page saying "membership requires approval".

Can you just start a group as 1 person?

Sure -- you can start by clicking here.

Thanks, that was all really helpful. Last thing though:

If you join a group, is it possible to play Matchmaking with only the members of your group? Or can your members make 1 team to play in Social Teams?

Unless you send a friend request to them there is no way you can find your fellow mates on Xbox Live.

You also have to be a member for at least 14 days, or else you're not able to make a group.
