Thanks worm23. Indeed, if I only try often enough it actually works. The fact that a group is alike a user and that you can even change between the two settings is amazing. I hadn't understood that, as my "privacy settings" first had no box for "make this user a group" until a few days ago I believe.
Also the German interface says Gruppen Besitzer = group owner (not user), that was another part of the problem, probably.
So for all:
You create a group as a user. Then you log out. Then you log back in but with the name and the password for the group you just created. Only then you can change the group avatar and the password. Your new group is like a new user with the "make this user a group" box in the privacy settings already activated.
To be able to log in as a group owner I have to unfollow and unfriend the group as user MattisManzel first. If I don't my login jumps back to user MattisManzel the moment I go on the group's soup page. Unfollowing and removing friendship for my groups mostly hangs on my FF3, so does refollowing them and recreating friendship - it's a little annoying. But trying often enough helps though.
Bravo soup! It's even more wiki-like than I first thought.-

"Wie die Kuh vorm Tor stehen" - standing like the cow in front of the gate. It's an expression in German for stupidity combined with not knowing what to do next. I've been searching more and more how to change group-icons. I even tried on windows and in IE6 (just to explain my degree of desperation), but no way. How do I change group-icons? People did change them here for their groups, so it must be possible. Thanks a lot!

Thanks, Mattis. That means a lot. We put a lot of hard work into it, and everyone is very subjective when it comes to design and functionality. Some people love it. Some people think it's too busy. Some people think it's too spare. Some people wish it looked and worked like their favorite old forum from 1999.
But, very few people simply tell us how it makes them feel. And we love that the most.

Get Satisfaction feels good!Get Satisfaction feels good. I can't say yet if it will work for my 'little idea' but it feels good. That's all. Well done and thank you!

Welcome to the wiki-net! Too bold?Fascinated with various web services I've recently been trying out - in combination with the wiki-net idea that has kept me busy for the last two years - I accidentally dropped into 'get satisfaction', and I quite liked it from the very beginning. Surprise: Most of the services I tested recently are represented on 'get satisfaction'. Is it too bold to start 'get satisfaction: wiki-net' right among all the shiny professionals here? Probably it is.
The wiki-net is not a company or an organization. It's an idea. It's about communities deciding what information about their wikis is being fed to the 'big public' and which feeds from other communities to follow on their wikis locally. Like twitter: you decide for yourself who you follow, the others decide for themselves if they follow you. Twitter runs on the individual level whereas the wiki-net run on the community-level.
Anyhow. Welcome to the wiki-net. I'll try to put more here. Meanwhile you might like to take a look at the odd-wiki-hive, obm-wiki-hive, kabo-wiki-hive or the eArt-wiki-hive to get an impression about the wiki-net.
Or - for the widest angle view - check the wiki-net hive-lists like for example kabo-wiki-hive / kabo-wiki-list: wiki-net hive-lists. Thanks!

can't log into group wikiI started the group wiki but can't log into it. It does not say 'wiki has made you admin ...'. There's a wikiwiki group already but it is unfortunately restricted to Mediawiki Foundation wikis.

No admin menu in group democracyI created the group democracy, it says I'm group admin, but there's no admin menu (nut-icon) anymore. It was there in the beginning. Thanks for the soup!
