Well, previous topic got closed by it's creator, probably to avoid ppl blacklisting him for his own leecher ratio, but topic itself didn't adress the issue itself. People focused on OP being a leecher and didn't discuss an idea itself, so I decided that I will put my few pennies and open a clear area for discussion.
Original idea:
My take on a matter:
I believe that any serious group that is seriously administrated should and will do background check on any user wanting to join. And idea proposed in OP is 1) exploitable 2) contrary to SG rules 3) won't work, cause what's breaking the rules in 1 group is fine in another.
AD 1) Anyone can create private GA group. It's not like all group admins and moderators are perfectly clean ppl by definition. Heck, every now and then we see group recruitments for groups that are obvious scams made by "group admins". Now imagine that any of hese douchebags could just go to such a group and post maybe even fake accusation that user XYZ scammed the group, while in reality maybe he just didn't agree with admin and admin is taking revenge on him?
AD 2) No calling out is no calling out. Such a group, while not on SG, is obviously made to go around the rules. It's only purpose is SG related and only reason for it's existence is to break SG rules outside of SG. For comparison - what if I were to make a group solely dedicated to leaking puzzle answers and/or GA links? Should it be ok just because I'm leaking them in steam group and not on SG itself?
AD 3) There are different kinds of SG groups, each with it's own set of rules. What will get you kicked in group A, will only let to probation in group B and will be totally fine in group C. Yet you get publicly shamed and get closed doors or even icked from groups B and C, even if your action wouldn't lead to such consequecnes in B and C.
