Sapphire really needs to stop spamming me with invites. I am flattered, but its getting old.


I apologize. Apparently our members still don't check the Sears list.

I can honestly say, I don't usually mind group invitations very much. I've found several groups that I spend time in every day. Usually, they're cordial, somewhat informative, and well put together. However, in the last few weeks I have been receiving group invite after group invite full of grammatical errors, and claiming to have 1000+ members when it's really around 18-20. My inbox is a desolate wasteland of frustration. I get 5-10 per day.

Has anyone else noticed a sudden increase in the amount of group invites?

  • 04.28.2012 9:05 PM PDT

The group invites I get are usually the ones from the cordial groups.

I guess good grammar is a deterrent of bad groups inviting you.

I guess the OP just got unlucky or they noticed one grammatical error and thought he was one of them.

*sends you a group invite*

>.>

No, really.

<.<

OT: Yeah, I've seemed to be getting quite a lot of group invites as of late. I've only joined one that I was invited to; the rest of the invites appeared as though they were drafted by a 10 year old.

Looking for clan that isn't too serious? Then join the ODST 501st Airborne Battalion. Go to http://www.501st.forumclan.com for more info.

I never get any kind of PM.

Say what?

Some guy asked if I wanted to join a Legend of Zelda group. Here is our conversation:

Him:
Posted by: [NAME REDACTED]
You should check out my new group! the Knights of Hyrule! we're a group dedicated to all things zelda! If you have any questions about the group or about basically anything, feel free to pm me

Thanks for the time of day! :3


And I asked him if Zelda was that guy in the green tunic and such.
Then he said:

Posted by: [NAME REDACTED]
I'm afraid you're incorrect. Zelda is the princess from the series. Regardless, if you're a fan, feel free to stop on by! We don't worry about frivolous things like a lack of knowledge over the series. But it is advised to at least google a question about basic canon.


Then I asked him if Sheik wasn't the princess then...
Then he said:

Posted by: [NAME REDACTED]
Technically, yes. But for the full story, I advise using google.


Then I think I annoyed him when I said that I didn't have a Gamecube to play Ocarina of Time(Secretly, I have a Gamecube =P):

Posted by: [NAME REDACTED]
No problem! As long as you're a fan, you're welcome! Although, if you do join, I would appreciate it if you googled questions about canon instead of making a thread about it.


Then I told him that I didn't make a thread:

Posted by: [NAME REDACTED]
I did say "if you do join".... But to make it easier to understand, if you plan on joining, refrain from making threads involving questions about factual canon. Have a nice night sir! ^__^


I then told him to have a nice night himself.

That's how I deal with them.

If you are watching this you have clicked on my profile or stolen this. I dont know why you would do that...

About me? I love Astronomy, I like to play guitar and watch anime. My future lies in Astronomy and so does the future of all of humanity. You should join my Astronomy group Space Explorers.

I keep my group invites to tell what the group actually is. I wouldn't lie about the amount of members, but one thing I must say is that mine is welcoming and mature. Besides that, I wouldn't write it full of grammatical errors or such.

And there has been a while since I last got an invite or sent an invite.

I haven't gotten a group invite in a year.

  • 04.29.2012 7:44 AM PDT

Jack of all trades, master of none.

I hardly get any now. There really needs to be a better way to advertise groups, other than PMs.

If you see it as spam, block the user and delete the message. What I normally do with the invites you receive.

What group? Robot factory has sent 7 of them in the last 24 hours.. Different member each time.
Oh yeah. Their annoying spam ensured I will never, ever go near that group quite some time ago.
Hasn't Robot Factory been known to use bots for recruiting?

lol yea I block almost everyone who sends me a group invite.
Posted by: Lobster Fish 2
This is why there is a block button, and for now all we can do is hope that they implement some better advertising for groups as a whole.

Of course we want to invite people to the group. Just not those we've thrown out in the past.

Wonder what he'd been like back in the days where you got like 5 invitations a day.

Yeah Robot Factory is the first group I've had multiple invites within the hour. I was surprised they actually had the numbers they boasted since they directly linked the 'join group' page rather than the group home as if they were trying to hide it.
Anyway, no dice, the only group I have joined through private message was the regulars.
I dont always join groups when I'm PM'd
But when I do
Its a good choice.

Consider yourself lucky. I've probably deleted 100 messages this month.
That number, it is too high.
Hopefully Bungie has something in mind for it.
