Jeff Mack Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 Yes I fully understand all the various things it can be used for, but the point is, what is there so different that cannot be achieved via multi participant private messaging? Well the main thing is that you can have more than 6 people in the Private group. The groups can have as many people as you want.

Ed Mack Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Here is the topic, if I'm not mistaking. http://community.brickpicker.com/topic/9304-looking-for-non-us-lego-online-retailers/ Right, so feel free to contact Jeff with a retailer in your country that might be useful on the site.

endtalk Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Next thing you know you'll need to get a license to dispense Lego investing advice. Glen Beck will stop pushing gold and switch to Lego, there will be hour long infomercials at 3am showing happy people at some water front house talking about how they made their fortune in Lego and you can too if you buy this system for 5 easy payments of $199.99. Hey! Want to start a private forum to start working that idea? JK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpinemaps Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I'm guessing that since Brickpoints are no longer a thing, Private Groups can no longer be created? "Private Groups" are still listed under the "More" tab, just fyi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fcbarcelona101 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 No one ever really indicated interest in private groups. It was offered for people who apparently really wanted them until it was actually offered and everyone disappeared... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudoty Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 No one ever really indicated interest in private groups. It was offered for people who apparently really wanted them until it was actually offered and everyone disappeared...I thought this was being used heavily since everyone disappeared after it was introduced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Mack Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 Who disappeared? I don't get the YouTube clip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudoty Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Who disappeared? I don't get the YouTube clip? Commercial from local Phila 17 when we were kids he opens with "Hey where did everybody go" Probably just seasonal as I joined last Xmas season can't recall if I lurked and if so for how long but noticed some members with high posts counts that used to post in DD thread stopped. So in my mind I thought they were using the private group function. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tractorboy Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Is it possible to start a private group at the mo? I'd like to start one for the Irish members so we're not filling threads with OT content.Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Migration Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I don't think they are doing private groups anymore. But you can have an Irish thread if you want. I know there's an Australian one and a German one as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
