Groups: Now with more features!

January 11th, 2010 3 Comments Features

Over the new year’s, our team has been hard at work to introduce a few new features that will help make it easier for you to find groups that meet your interests and like-minded people that will join the groups you have started.

Chief among the slew of changes we’ve introduced this time — you’re now able to invite people to join groups that you’ve started or joined! Now you can help the groups that you support to grow faster than ever before by inviting your friends! You will find this feature on the top right hand corner of each group page:

Group owners, you are now able to tag your groups with keywords related to your group, so remember to do that because doing so will help potential members to find you a lot easier! If you haven’t already done so when creating your group, you can always do that by clicking on “Edit Group” later on:

Groups that are tagged will show up under “Suggested Groups” for members with the same interests

You can now also follow discussions that you are interested in. By participating in any discussion, you will also be automatically following that discussion. This means that any time there is an update in the thread, you will receive a notification in your LiveFeed. Of course, at any time, you will be able to manually unfollow the discussion should you wish to do so.

Phew that was quite a whole load of changes, wasn’t it? Tell us what you think in the comment section below or feel free to ask a question in our Gays.com Support group (login required)! We’re looking forward to hear what you have to say!

    Hi guys. thanks for all those new possibilities. Unfortunately I seem to be missing one. Sometime ago I asked wether it is possible to send a message to all groupmembers. Will you make that possible, if it is not so already?

    Hope to hear from you.

    Hi Klass,
    Thanks for your feedback. Yep, messaging all group members is in our agenda, we’re working on it, but some improvments were more pressing that others. We’ll yeep you updated as soon as it’s ready :)
