The Nation is great, don't get me wrong but it could benefit from some documentation, not to mention some way of navigating the massive amount of stuff on here. Anyway, how do you add a group?

What group would you want to add? I think Gitty locked down the ability to create groups because people were creating groups that were duplicates of existing groups, and creating groups for really narrow interests, which resulted in many groups only having 1 or 2 users in them.

Thanks Dan

I was looking for one that focuses on playing slide, and another on fingerpicking. Too narrow?

I am thinking that you will probably find most of your answers here:

Cheers Dan

I'm in that group, it's cool. Most people, from what I can gather at least, appear to play fretted instruments and use a pick so a lot of the discussions revolve around that. I can't find anything dedicated to these other more technical skills. Not to worry, I'm sure there are more important things happening in the world, particularly today.

Thanks for your help.

You can also check YouTube and search for Shane Speal. He has a ton of how to play videos.

I would love a group on fingerpicking, I have noticed that a lot of time is spent on what to do with the left hand and leaving out the right hand all together...that's tough on us wantabe players...can build it can't play it!

I want to add a group for scandinavian CBG´ists. is that possible? 

note to self. do proper research before asking questions :)
