What is the box of public memberships for?

[ADXC]

For the life of me I can't seem to figure out what it is. In case you don't know what I'm talking about, I mean that box that is in the bottom right hand corner of each profile.

I've always been curious as to what it was and what its purpose is.

EDIT: Woops, I meant to say group memberships.

I think it's a leftover. This is a format made by VBulletin. On some of the other forums this format is used on, you can join groups as well. Catholic Answers's forum is a good example of this.

Ah, I see. Geez this thing had been bothering me since I joined in 07.

Another forum I'm a member of (composersforum.ning.com, for music composers) uses groups to have threads dedicated to members of specific interests (like different genres, or there's one group for 'full-time' composers, i.e. people who actually make their living off it.)

It's hard to figure what CAA might use them for. Perhaps for collaborations or role-playing.

Group memberships is a secret society of older elders of CAA that feast on probies and planning to take over the world.

Oh yes, I remember someone mentioning these higher elders or at least something along these lines. Who was it that said it again?

*clears throat* Roy, have you forgotten that one of the main rules of the society is not to mention the society!?

Lol, that last one made me giggle xD

Since the question has been answered, I'll go ahead and close this thread ^^
