Removing inactive groups
What should be done?
How can we prevent this after these groups have been deleted?

Content: Not to mention ROBLOX servers would also be able to benefit from this as they’re not having to store all this unused data. How can we prevent this after these groups have been deleted? I think there are many ways that we can prevent this from happening & some of these examples are listed below: Do not allow the last member of a group to leave unless the join permission is set to Public
Automatically remove said group after the last member has left
Create a Remove group button that allows a user to delete a group (as long as the user is the only user in the group) and then have ROBLOX refund said user x% of the group’s value
Personally, I’d like to see groups on ROBLOX that are active and do not have silly names just because someone decided to create a group with that name beforehand and not actually use it. Please reply with your feedback on this situation. Is there anything you would change? Do you support this idea? -TeaAndCopy

Something to keep in mind is that groups still have things like group funds / places / etc when they’re abandoned, so it wouldn’t be a great idea to open up empty groups just because they’re empty. In fact, at one point people were going through empty groups and claiming them en masse just for the funds. Another issue is if someone compromises a group owner’s account, gets it down to 0 members, and then the group is automatically deleted.
