    Lately, I was scrolling in the groups menu and saw a lot of groups that were pretty interesting, but when I enter them I see most of them is already dead. Usually last message is months ago and nobody pays attention to the group.
    I think the staff members have their own reason for closing group creation, but I believe the group section is missing some varieties, so I think maybe it is wise to reopen group creation.
    Also this is just my opinion so i am not trying to persuade someone to do anything.

    yeah i agree, i was trying to create my own group instead of joining one that already existed, but i had no choice. But now that i'm banned from the role play group that i joined, and the fact that i'm reading your thread right now, makes me want my own group.

    The reason why group creation is gone is because it caused the forums to lag horribly. So the groups you see are the groups you get. Or you can ask someone for their old group that isn't used anymore. But why use a group when you could use a Discord server.

    This pretty much.

    The group system causes massive slowdowns in the forum maintenance.
    We would be probably removing it entirely, but there are a few active groups in there yet..
    I'd suggest Discord as well, for what you want.
