I don't really even see the point of having groups over 150 members anyway. Maybe I am one of the few people who actually use the function to see who is playing what in my community group, but when they get to big, it's a status thing. Once my community group gets to the 140 mark, I will start kicking people from the group who have nothing to do with us or have faded away. Quality vs. Quantity.

Just because you will get potentially many new members to your steam group doesn't mean those people are going to give a hoot about what the group is about. This auto invite crap is abusing the system. I use to invite users one by one who I thought would want to join my group, not invite every single user who joins my server.
