Default Custom user group for coop play

I've figured out how to create a private section that is only visible for members and can be controlled by other users (instead of me manually promoting them).

This allows us to make 'safer' online play experience possible. Cheating should be less abundant if you only play with members you've accepted in the group.
People can only join if they're accepted by the group leaders. You can post the passwords to your game in that section and only the members would be able to see it; and if you suspect a member is cheating, he can be removed from the group (and the password can be changed).

Under "User CP => Group Memberships" you can now request to join the "Coop member" group.

Currently, I've assigned ASYLUM101 as a group leader, because it needed a group leader (else anyone could join - and Asylum seems rather active with coop play).
However, nothing is set in stone there - you guys can choose who's going to be the group leaders (we can have several).

So, tell me if this is something that you guys want and I'll set it up properly. Otherwise it won't happen.

Oh, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask ofcourse.

I could - but well, you seem like a good group leader for this occassion, but I'd rather await what other members have to say about this; wouldn't want you to get excited over a dead bird.

Ah, ok. I'd still be excited even if someone else were the group leader. This is awesome news, no matter what haha.

Well, that's good to hear; I'll write that down as a yes than
I'd still await a few more votes, being in a 1-person group is somewhat eh... pointless.

I'm interested fro-sho.

EDIT: I was just thinking though, maybe this shouldn't be limited to coop? Is there already a group like this for cheat free PvP? Because that seems like it would be fun to get going.

Well, pvp could be done too I guess
It's not very popular at this moment, perhaps this can improve it... we'll see.

Anyway, I made a private section for the coop member group, I think Asylum will do fine as a group leader; he can handle the join requests. You'll need more group leaders, so if you guys can tell me who you trust enough for it, tell me and I'll assign them.

I don't have too much time to keep busy with this, so I'd rather assign as much reliable group leaders as possible at this time and only check the section occassionaly later on.

Tell me what you need in that section - also, feel free to give suggestions on name changes and stuff (coop member sounds a bit lame, doesn't it?)

I dunno if this helps, but I hope so.
The private section has been created though, check the sticky in the battle corner if you want to know how to join.
