Some of us join a group because we are looking for lively conversations on topics we have interest in. Part of the issue here is that of the 1000s of groups, most of them are dead. If you find a topic of interest and the restrictions are to high, you are fee to creat your own with you own or no restrictions. Most become abandon and you either end up in join limbo or no conversation at all.
Lately most of the post have been in the forums.
The forum has the same FEW members posting over and over again. If the forum is any sign of activity in private groups, then most of those groups should be closed if there is no posting activity in a year. So many people here either add friends other or join groups and then never say one word. What is the point of doing this???
This site is almost like the local landfill. The local landfill needs a good clean out and organizing but this will never happen as the endless dumping will continue for an eternity.
Just think what people 100 years from now who view this forum will think of it.

I could support the idea that if a group has no activity the moderator(s) are notified and if there is no response in some time period (30 days?) the group is closed.
The point of having a large number of friends or joining a large number of groups withoout posting is probably the ability to view a large number of photos,
Group Mods have the ability to delete the group if there is no activity. I have a couple and I'm thinking of doing that. Most of the members are still active on TN but not in that group. I can delete the group; it goes away and so do all their posts are gone as well. I'm hoping that doesn't upset the post counters here! ;D
I think that we are all used to seeing our post counts go down at times.
I certainly understand that moderators have a right to delete posts, threads or even groups.
What I don't understand is why when someone leaves the site, all their posts and any threads or groups they started disappear.
I only moderate a few groups that I had a personal interest. I also carefully review respective members. My real disappointment is that none of them actually generate any meaningful posts/discussions. I don't delete a member for inactivity. Not everyone has the time to post tings but may still have a genuine interest in the topic.

I can resonate with this the groups that generate traffic are all about body parts and sexual subjects not naturist related.

Not necessarily. I belong to 143 groups none of which are primarily about body parts and sexual subjects. About half of them have at least one post in the last month,
Can any person or organization actually be stupid enough to believe membership numbers of any site? All sites 'puff' up their numbers and the information available should be highly suspect to anyone with any common sense. Then again, most people today do not have any common sense hence why the country and the world is in the mess that it is in. Perhaps the best answer is for government to issue ample supplies of LSD to everyone so that the entire country (if not world) can hallucinate themselves to a better world. Reality and common sense certainly do not seem to work anymore.
A couple of things:
As you've already mentioned, the owner/moderator can have whatever rules he so desired -- and that's the way it should be.
The images you submit for certification are not posted to your profile for everyone to see. The only people who see them are the people who run the site.

Yes, I agree, the owner moderator should be able to have the rules. My point is that there are a few people that have lots of groups with popular topics that also have. strict rules of having multiple frontal nude shots open to everyone. On top of that the owner/moderator does not participate in the site otherwise, blocks anyone that contacts them with questions, or even politely disagrees with them. In addition it you search them on Google they appear to be doing the same on multiple sites. To me, it appears they are using the site to feed their collection of nude photos to be used for who knows what purpose.
Im not sure who you are addressing about the certification photos, Id have to re-read the entire thread, but the photo discussion has been at least primarily about those you upload to your profile, especially those the moderator requires to be full frontal.
