We like the idea of social groups, but they don't do their job very well.

Social groups make sense when you have a huge established community and you need a better way to organize it. But Trisphee doesn't have that problem (though we all wish it did). The problem for Trisphee is that social groups don't have very good visibility, so any activity that happens in social groups is activity that isn't making Trisphee look more active for new users thinking about joining the site.

It should also be noted that in addition to not having their page styling set up, social groups don't give aurum or items for posting, and they don't count towards achievements or automatic user title changes.
