RE: New Group - Aces - D3xus - 01-17-2012
To elaborate on what Breshie said and to answer laugh: it would be the same concept as HF L33T and UB3R. All the people of those usergroups are deemed superior to other members since they paid money. Breshie, and myself included, think this group might grow into that same prejudice as l33t and ub3r.

I just believe that with all the 'oldies' in one group, it will spark conflict within the community. But it should be easy to control if that does happen, right?

^ Pretty much exactly what I mean.

However this shouldn't be confused with a group of users in the community who have paid towards SF because there's no donations set up for SF. Also HF L33T and Ub3r aren't quality or good members just because they paid to have a userbar. But I do see the point, just can't compare the two between here and the other forum as it's not an accurate comparison. I'm sure there's ways that would allow it to work though as obviously people who are in the group and showing any lack of leadership or disregard to others on the forum aren't qualified to be in the group anyway. Leadership does not include flaming or anything of that nature.

I like the idea of the group, you should contact Omniscient and get it official.

Those are paid group nearly anybody can get accepted into. How is that even a little bit relevant?

That wouldn't happen, people will be chosen carefully. The second a member says "I'm in Aces..you're not. Obviously I'm more mature than you" or anything of that nature they would be removed, obviously. But chances are that won't happen because members with that type of attitude won't be accepted to begin with.
However, if a member not in the group brings it up and sparks a conflict by saying something similar to "you think you're all that because your in the Aces," then the member has the wrong idea of the group. Anybody who says that is jealous of the other person's status, and nobody should be jealous of a member in the group one bit. So if that did happen all it means is the member is ignorant on the significance of the group, which is simply to be a leader.
We hardly see immature arguments I've mentioned above on Support Forums anyway. There is nothing to worry about.

You should read up on the group rules before replying. No, this group won't be official until their are 10 applicants who are eligible to join.
