So, what exactly ARE social groups?

A place where we can talk about all offtopic stuff with no qualms?
Those are basically private forums where only members of the group can read and post threads. (The reading part may be available to everyone if the group owner decides so.)

And yeah, you can go off-topic without problems.

If nothing else, maybe everyone can exchange Skypes and just have one big Skype session during the conference. I personally can't because I already promised a skype session with a friend, but it would be an easy way to get everyone's reactions.
I'd be up for it. I've already got Habanero on skype, if anyone else wants to add me, my account is the same as my username here, I think I also have it linked on this profile.

Also, whats wrong with bonding guys? I've already got friends from all over the world thanks to moving so much across 3 different continents, what's wrong with making a few more? Plus it gives me a good excuse to visit a new place, hell I've already promised some of you I'd (eventually) drop for a visit.

Hmm, so it's like PMs but not really?

Not sure if I see the appeal... Is it VIP only or something?

Then, and only then, will his question make some sort of sense.
Seriously though how comes ZSS ZSM can crawl but not Metriod?

EDIT: Corrected for accuracy. Sorry I get the two mixed up.

Well, Zero Suit Metroid could crawl in Samus: Zero Mission instead of Morph Ballin so. :p

It's like another set of threads by us that only the invited can enter. Basically its for those who are serious about discussing Smash, though there will also be more social areas so we can have what we have now, just without any influx of new users that may or may not give us a hard time.

Also I'm not too crazy on talking on Skype because the idea makes me nervous. :laugh: Nothing against any of you. I'm much more awkward than the rest of you.

Here's the appeal. It's our safe haven from the inevitable **** storm. Most of us have known for months, if not, years, that an inevitable storm like that'll happen. I think it happened with Brawl too, so yeah.

Basically, it's our safe zone. :kirby:

I'm up for it as well, we could even do it while we watch Nintendo Directs 2 weeks from now.
info is in my profile as well, I'll add you. I don't even think I have even fully set-up my skype account lol

You can still Skype chat w/o a camera and mic.
This is a good point, like I said I am actually going to be talking to my friend, but I could just type messages during the conference to you guys. My skype info is my actual name though and I don't feel comfortable just putting it out like this so I will just add you guys myself.

XD is it really gonna be like Hiroshima part 2 or WW3 Like all of you lot are making it out to be?

YES. You know how bad the (I'll use the politically correct term) smaller minded posters post! Trust me, I've mistaken the site for GameFAQs on certain boards. (Not really, but you get the idea.)

Is everyone just sharing Skype stuff now? My Skype name is breloomer236. Exactly as I typed it. Not capitalized.

I'm not sure if I know what LOTR's is, but all I know is that they're as smart as Bowser's troops, and come more frequently than Zubats in caves. So REALLY BAD.

LOTR=Lord of the Rings.
Loool appear more times Then Zubat in Mt.Moon? Are you serious? My dayz £999999999 all on Max Repels.

The 17 years of constant Repels have made Zubats immune through natural selection (or whatever the equivalent is for Pokemon). THEY CAN'T BE STOPPED.

false! magikarp does not evolve into shiny gyarados.

I could skype! though, i think it be best to keep to the chat functions.

also, the groups are up but none of the previous threads have been ported... i'm going to test it to see if new threads can be posted as no one tried to yet.

this is the Bomb Shelter from E3 2012 that pretty much turned into a place where people just talked about their porblems and whatnot.

http://smashboards.com/social-forums/the-new-super-smash-wii-u-discussion-backroom.150/

i made a test to see how these new threads in groups work as everything changed... when the fire nation attacked.

if you were an alumni of this social forum, you should be able to see it and my test thread. if you haven't been invited in the past, you shouldn't be able to post let alone see any threads.

I may join in a Skype chat, issue for me is that, while no offense, it is kinda weird to meet up "strangers" you meet online. I'm a guy who values his privacy, so giving out personal info does make me a tad nervous (hence my Username, took me forever until I got a Facebook page). Embarrass


Didn't even notice that the Social Groups were up. Won't start inviting people until later though, as I don't want people to start making all these new threads (Augusto's test thread doesn't count) so we don't get any accidental duplicate threads. There's also no threads to post on at the moment anyway. I also need to play around with some of the old/new features first.

EDIT: Yeah there's not much I can do at the moment with the group until the updates later tonight.

I still don't have a facebook page, and I doubt I ever will. I am a bit touchy on privacy myself. so i can empathize with what your say

but yeah on skype will be kinda cool to hear/read you guys react to the Directs

I wouldn't make comparisons to either the Japanese bombings or the Holocaust if we're going for World War references. It's going to be more like a titan raid. Gigantic humanoids whose sole purpose is seemingly to eat people to make the boards miserable with their stupidity.

Meanwhile, I'll be munching on potatoes.

I think for Skype, we should do like we did last year where it was mic and chat. I'd prefer this since for some reason, I can't reliably do video calls.

I get that. Then again, am far more concerned what cops, the governments and the CIA / FBI can find about me than some regular people. Except 4chan ofcoarse.
