This is happening a lot. I think it's either very bad lag or a bug, (sorry, 'temporary feature').

How many people are in the group and are they having the same problem?

This is a common problem (???? instead of group name) and I have seen it many times, but it is only transient - it is a bit like the friends list showing "waiting". I am fairly sure it only (normally) happens to the individual who is effectively "requesting" the data from the server, so I would suggest a relog aned clear cache and then see if it is still happening.

On a serious note Scorpio this question/issue has been raised many times. It just seems to be a glitch that appears from time to time and soon resolves itself. Nobody has ever reported a serious repercussion from this happening. Give it a few hours, days at most, and you'll see everything go back to normal with no adverse effects. :)

What happens if you set an object to Share with Group, or Deed to Group, when this bug is present?
