Groups up for adoption are groups that are in need of a new leader.

To be eligible to take over a group up for adoption, you need to have a Premium membership. While you don't have to be verified to create a group, we highly recommend verifying as it will make the process a lot easier, and gives you the most functionality as the Group Owner. Verification only takes about a minute - it's free and secure. Find out more about verification.

We also strongly recommend that group owners read and understand the BateWorld Terms of Service (ToS), Content Standards and Community Guidelines to ensure your group thrives within these guidelines and does not become at risk of removal through any ToS violations.

To adopt a group, select Groups up for Adoption, which can be found via Community then Groups to see what groups need new leaders and follow the instructions on the page to take over.
