Groups has Arrived to WSO!

Now any user can create their own group!

We encourage company groups, investing groups, school groups, sport groups, or any other group you can think of...you can invite your buddies or any other users to a specific group. the groups can be fully public, by invite only or 100% private (like WSO's Moderator group).

Please be patient as there are still more improvements coming to the layout and look to Groups, but the overall functionality should be working. Please let us know if you are having any problems in this thread.

We have also created a WSO Certified User Group where the Certified Users can interact, network and get advice from each other easier. This is long overdue...especially since the Certified Users will be contributors to a new book we'll be publishing soon (likely early next year).

Thanks and enjoy.

WestCoastChimp30Don't have to click on something, go get coffee, and then hope it's loaded when I get back.

hmmm, you notice we are faster? We made some changes (besides upgrading from 5.2 to 5.10), but how long ago has it been since you were on the site? Just trying to gain a sense of reference since as you can see from the poll on the left, a ton of people think faster pageloads is the most important thing to improve on WSO. The site loads pretty fast for me but we are still always looking to improve it.

Are you on Firefox, IE7?

Thanks, Patrick

The group i made is very buggy. Not sure how to add a post ,and there are several posts in there from other forums which got lumped in there.
