OK, I think I can help here. This is a link that works. It is the same group I was referring to - in fact I am a moderator and I have made a couple of great friends that I see in real life now!

Do come and join us.
The reason you would join a group (as opposed to this board) is that the rules are a bit different. You can advertise your auctions, solicit business and post an album of your own pics.
But it does not replace this board.

I also lead another discussion group about collection silver called Sterling Silver Lovers, and you are welcome to join this group too.

Some groups are public and some are private. The public ones you just sign up and begin. The others you have to write to the leader or moderator and ask to join.
My silver group is public - any riff raff like me can play. But if someone just shows up to spam us I kick 'em out and block 'em. OOOHHHH THE POWER!!!

OK, hows about this:
Go to the top of this screen.
Community. Overview. Groups.
Look at the lists of groups and there is a Power Sellers category. Canadian Power Sellers is there.
Obviously the links thing is messed up.

Oh crud. Now I see this is a.com thing!!!!!
You have to see these links on the US board.
I give up.

I also see the OP has started a private group of which she is the only memeber. This is what she is talking about.
The one I am talking about has 175 members.
Sorry to barge in OP!

"Should those topice be raised in another discussion group then I see it as a breakdown of this board"
That is very true, Malcolm. I mean, how many Power Sellers, particularly in Canada on boards, can be spread so thin?
I joined the Canadian Power seller board when asked and then became a mederator when I saw that one of the members was not Canadian, but rather there to irritate the group from the US board! Can you believe that?? So I was made a moderator to watch over the enrollment list.
I also began to talk with folks and became friends with a few, one which I meet for lunch in Collingwood regularly. Without that group I would not have met her. So was it worth it? Heck Yes!
My group of Sterling Silver folks is a specific interest group. My motive there is business related. I figured if I got us together, we would look at each other's listings and sell to each other. Not exactly noble - but inventive from a marketing point of view.
I started that Silver Lovers on the first day the Group thing was introduced. If you look at the groups listed, some are downright comical - like VEGAN GAY EBAY SINGLES (private) - (just kidding).

I do notice that this board is less tolerant of sarcasm, bawdy or potty talk, or innuendo. Well after that, I'm just about speechless.
