Alert in Group(s)

I would like to see for the Super Admin. to be alerted for any new member joining or member leaving the Group as option in the Admin's Tool.

Or being banned, too....

why would that be important for the Sup. Admin. be notify ?

Well, that would seem as important to know as a member quitting?

quitting and banned seem different to me  but being banned I don't care

..... with ???

OK haha, so what would you do in your group when a member get banned ?

i think it really sucks when they can remove a player and all his notes and messages but you cannot remove them from a match that just started.

But i managed to remove him from all the rest before they wer locked this really sucks as they take up a valuble space in matches so why arnt they automaticly removed by this site?

 I am getting sick and tired of this, this is also very embrassing for me in some groups, new members has arrived in the group without me knowing it and didn't get a chance to welcome them to the group untill much later. 

You'd want that as some kind of 'group activity' thing, like the notes, though, right?

If it were a message that would have the potential to get annoying. There should be a page that documents people entering/exiting the group over time, which the SA is automatically subscribed to, say.

I am not sure what you are saying, all I want is to have the option in the setting (in the group) is to be notified of a new member who has joined the group or has left the group. There is a page there, is called 'Managed Members' all it does delete or promote them. Maybe better is in the 'Edit Setting'

Play Team
Vote Chess?

 No

 Yes

Play Team
Matches?

 No

 Yes

Yes, but how would you like to be notified? In some groups, a message per member would be too much for them to deal with, really.

What I was refering to is something like the 'notes' system. When there is a new 'note' in a group you get a notification up the top. it stays there until you check through to the notes page that it links to. You wont find yourself coming back after a holiday with a million 'new user' messages this way.

 I think I am getting the hang of it of what you are saying.

kco's suggestion is that super admin(s) receive a private notification [of a new member joining].

nwav's modification is that the group receives a public notification (which all members would see).

At this stage, the precise implementation details seem less important than drumming up support for the feature!

As far as JOINING is concerned: if the group settings say: Anyone can join = NO, then (super) admin will get notified when any new member requests to join.

 Yes I saw that, that is more like for private groups, I am speaking for the public groups such as NZ group in which I am the SA of.

If you regularly list all members and sort by Date Joined (making a note of when the latest member joined), you'll be able to detect any new members who have joined since your previous checkpoint.

 that is manually how about automatically instead.

it would be far easier for the SA to have auto updates on his members and also on any kicked for spamming or cheating to because it would save on lost points in TM they might have joined before being caught

 this has been dicussed here....
