Inactive groups/clubs should be removed !

There are countless useless group/clubs at chess.com.  Daily there are around 5+groups/clubs on estimate that are made. Some members keep creating groups but don't bother to manage.

For example, we can take  "Team India", "Indian are great", "Indian Warriors",  If you search for these groups, you will find that the admins at these groups have not logged-in for years & months. They have disappeared from the site but still these groups/clubs have been  keep getting members as the name represents a country. When someone(mostly new member) is trying to find a fine group, they usually try to search with keyword at groups & teams  and he/she has to search through some useless clutter like these inctive groups.

I did a research on this topic at chess.com and found more than 500 groups/clubs  with only one member and just over 1000 with two-to-ten members. (I am not including groups for admins only)

It's my suggestion to chess.com, that these inacitve trash groups specailly 'Team India' or likewise should be removed.

Members who join those groups can be made the SA by asking staff. Then they can have all the fun of reigniting them.

Some people have huge egos and create groups about themselves. And sometimes they are the only member in their own group.

what is wrong if the group lies there - with no one using it?

I sent you a special one-time offer invite.  Look forward to you joining, then not participating.

The more and more you respond, the longer this thread keeps alive, and the more members will join an inactive group, which apparently bothers you.  So I'd quit responding if I were you.
