!! ~Striving for 3000~ !! problems... HELP!!!

A couple of weeks ago I changed !! ~Striving for 3000~ !! from a public group to a private group, so that it would be less time-consuming for me to do things like sort out the point check articles. But I didn't realize that this would make it so any article that is posted to the group would only be able to be seen by group members.
So I have tried several times to switch it back, and it just isn't changing. When I go to the group settings, it says that the group is public, but it is still under private groups when I try to post to it.
Am I doing something wrong? Is there someone I can contact about this? Do I just have to make a whole new group in order for it to be public?

I have no clue! But I have noticed that I can no longer post photos or article to the group and I am a member.

I think you can only post if you select "post to selected private groups" or something like that. Then it makes it so that the only people that can see the article are the private group's members.
I wish I could help, I have not seen this problem before. I was wondering what happened to the group!

No idea. I hope you get it fixed though. I guess you could try gather help or whatever it's called.

Not sure what to tell you. Sorry. Hope you get it the way you want it soon.

Awww. I was wondering why I couldn't find the group. Someone mentioned it elsewhere and since I'm going for the 3k this month, I thought it sounded interesting. It's definitely not showing up in public listings, though. :(

I also wondered why I couldn't find the group anymore. I was going to post a point check for you for the group while you were gone to try to make it easier but I couldn't figure out how to post to the group. Weird! I hope you are doing great and you get it figured out!
