Group Liability - that's the money your groups spent that week. The only thing I know that your group can spend money on is the $30 weekly charge for a listing in the Find Places directory, though there could be other things. That liability is divided among all group members, just like dwell payments.

Stipend Rating is the cash bonus you get based on your rating levels. The higher your rating, the bigger your bonus (there are a few set levels - it's a step function not a linear proportion).

Stpend Delta is the cash bonus you get for the amount your ratings went up in the last week.

Group Liability is nothing more than the debit out of the group traffic bonus point money going to each and every one of the group members -- the payout to the group.

Then it adds all $30/week payouts for being in Find Places as another debit.

You can see this on the sales/gifts/details tabs on the group's menu under MONEY.

It's confusing because what it doesn't tell you is that when it has a remainder that doesn't distribute, it saves it over to the next week -- it only distributes the money equally with no fractions.

That means a traffic bonus that put pluses in your box then can get minuses and even leave you with a $496 instead of a $500 to pay off the FINDPLACES. There isn't any other way to pay off the FIND PLACES on a group land.

I find that the payouts on the traffic point usually outweighs the debit on the FIND PLACES or they wash out.

You can look at it as an expense that would have been $30 for one person or let's say $3000 for 100 people that is then spread over the group to make it a less costly item.

You can offset this by putting land for sale to sell from the group so that the price paid for the land sale distributes to the entire group.
