If BiggerPockets had "groups" like Facebook would you use them?

[Jin Lee]

I've noticed a fair number of investors, even those who use BP, don't use Facebook or other social media. This got me thinking that a "groups" feature on BP so we can form and run groups to organize, communicate, share deals, and keep in touch might be useful. Any thoughts? Any BP staff got the inside scoop on how feasible something like this is down the road?

I’d be interest in seeing how it works out but I’m one of these people who has a Facebook account but checks it once a year or less. Give me an example of how it would work in practice please. 

If you’re looking to improve the site. How about forum filters?

I don’t want to see posts from people with less than 10 posts, or less than 60 days on BP, or without their location in their profile, or whatever else you can think of?

One of my biggest pet peeves is the 1st post from someone who joined today with no profile info who makes up a scenario they say they are asking for help on. But basically just want to argue or cause an argument. Best case, they are asking a question that’s literally been asked every week since BP started but they don’t want to have to search for an answer.
