(REWRITTEN WITH THE OWNER SEPERATE FROM THE MEMBERS, AS EVERYONE LIKES TO INTERPRET THE OWNER AS NOT BEING A MEMBER OF THE GROUP IN QUESTION AND NOT READ THE BODY OF THE MESSAGE.)
The idea is that groups which have no members and no owner are deleted. This would remove 'locked groups', those which the owner set to invite only, exiled everyone in it, and then left him/herself. |

This could increase space on the roblox servers and save them money. |

No support. Honestly. Do you know how little memory space that a group takes up? It's essentially the same degree as picking a penny or 2 up from the side of the road.
Also, some people are like I am. We don't like people taking things that we created and taking credit for it. Which is what this could eventually lead to. First it's "Delete empty groups.", then it's "Unlock the name of deleted groups.". That's what it would lead to, if you aren't already implying that. Leads to problems with certain things such as "Who is who".
And we can't forget those of us who do this: Create a group, no-one wants to join; so we abandon it and lock it. Even as we may have abandoned the group, the name is still something we created; we would not like it being taken, and then evidence of its original creation being destroyed. Essentially, that is almost a form of "cybertheft" (Made up word ftw.).

Actually, no.
Learn how copyrights work.
If you WILLINGLY give up the rights to whatever you own, than it's not longer YOURS. If you really care about the name of your group, than don't leave it... Simple. Otherwise don't cry about someone else using your name because you were too stupid to think things through BEFORE leaving your group. |

And before you start ranting on about how "You created it, and other people will still take advantage of YOUR creation."
No, you didn't "create" the name, and no one can "take advantage" of a name. A group is not defined by what it's called, but rather what it stands for. If there were three groups on roblox with the same name, but each one had 3 COMPLETELY different reasons of existing. Would either one be taking advantage of the other? No. If someone has a similar idea as you, and you give up the name of your group and they take it. That's their right. Don't be stupid and abandon a group if it actually means something to you. |

It'd save space and let out a couple of awesome names to be used. |

@Imnot: You never made any response to my first point; the amazingly small amount of space that a group really takes up.

What's to respond too? That's a true fact. I have nothing to say about it. |

Then there is no reason to waste time removing them(Groups) because of prissy brats who are mad that someone came up with a name first.

| Rather than delete the entire group, there could be a group archive instead. |

| Instead of immediately deleting them, there should be a timer of a year/6 months. |

That's not the reason at all. I think it'd be great just to clean it up a bit. And it doesn't take much time to remove it... Literally like... 3 lines of code could do the trick... Probably less. |

"This could increase space on the roblox servers and save them money."
Save money? Roblox could make thousands of groups with a title 10-20 characters and no members, and still have so much space to make thousands more.
"If you WILLINGLY give up the rights to whatever you own, than it's not longer YOURS. If you really care about the name of your group, than don't leave it."
There's a difference between copyright and abandoning a project. In this case, the project is a group. A project is under copyright once it hits a physical medium, studio recording, published in a book, or stored on a hard-drive. Regardless if you continue to work on it is yours and no one can use it without your permission. You're protected for the rest of your life, and then 70 years after your death.
But since this is Roblox, everything we do and upload, belongs to Roblox. |
