Everything about organic and green living!
Let's fight against genetically engineered food, advocating organic farming as our top priority in this agonizing and beautiful blue planet we live in.
We make an alliance with Nature, restoring its harmonious balance, its biodiversity and our health.
Let's discuss alternatives, imagining and creating solutions for an organic and green World.

Current Biodiversity:
Our favorite groups.Made by us.We will see the first four ranked articles of each of five groups chosen by us that are not featured on Current's homepage.
How shall we choose these five groups?
We will follow two criteria: the number of members and biodiversity.
As the group reaches the first 10 members I will take votes,publish them unlike many organizations and apply the change. Join this alternative homepage based on our favorite topics.I will need five modulators for the five favorite groups for daily updates and voting.

ya they know about the problem and are working on it I'm just not going to post anything till its fixed because things like commentator counters getting back dated is totally unrealistic. Contributor on the other hand would be easy to backdate. But ya i don't think many people know this because there levels aren't low enough were they'd even be watching the counter.

I'm pretty sure the groups updated locked my current.com levels as i can't get anything to update anymore i've also tried creating another account and can't even get it to level 1 on anything. I've already sent e-mails to feedback and support.

Hi Timothy,We're looking into this, and we'll let you know as soon as we've figured out what's causing the counts to be off.
Levels are still working correctly, however, the level count is updated daily so you won't see an immediate increase. Also, if you go to the achievements tab, you will see an accurate count of your contributions and comments.
Best,
Steph

The only reason I noticed this was because I've been actively trying to get level two commentator. I've recognized that at the end of each day the counter would update but every day since the groups update it hasn't changed. Hope this helps and thanks for the fast reply :]

I've been having the same problem. My contributor level has not moved. I realise the level maight be correct but surely the count beside should closer match the actual number of posts I've contributed...and I KNow my commentator count should be two or more higher.

Love the interface! Love the control! Love all the Currenty-goodness visitors get on each page. The only thing I want to know is, how do I get listed in the Groups homepage? Do I have to have a certain number of subscribers before I can get listed? If that's the only thing standing between me and Current-nirvana could you please help a member out and join my group?
I'm going to find all the hidden green video gems that are out there and bring them back to Current, like a squirrel holding a nut in his cheeks. Won't you please join my green video group?

GREAT!
I have created the following groups:
http://current.com/groups/the-art-gallery/ - The Art Gallery is a place for Current.com users to display their own artwork without fear of "shameless promotion"- we WANT to see what you've got! Paintings, sketches, photography, graphic design, performance art- anything and everything is acceptable!
http://current.com/groups/creative-writing/ - Creative Writing - Bring your poetry, short stories, blogs, editorials, whatever! Share your talent and passion and get constructive feedback from the Current Community!
That's all I got for now. I'll be doing some webcams to explain and promote them. I created this groups because people frequently feel bad about sharing their own work on Current, like it's illegitimate or arrogant, but I know there is a wealth of talent in the Current Community and I hope that you all can contribute to these artistic, creative groups!

You guys run one of the best sites on the vast nets, always cutting edge, always willing to explore, and always planning for the future.
Simply awesome!

For the Unicorn Group, the "load more suggestions" bar disappears after the page is done loading. The Awesome Group didn't have that problem, though. Something fixable?
