Question about Official groups

For example: if I where to purchase a group from someone Could I resurrect an old group?

Like the Wrath, RATS crew, etc?

If I recall correctly, since they were official groups you can't reuse their names.
Pretty sure it's not allowed.
Astonish was allowed to bring Respawn back tho, but it was a complete joke.
Now I know what you meant when you said you will lose something valuable.
No you cannot. The only way you would be allowed to do this (from what I've seen) is to have the previous owner as a leader who is fully endorsing your decision. That happened when Complexity (owned by JD) turned into Infamous. iNviZ was a leader and allowed JD to change the group into Infamous v2. Respawn was recreated with Astonish as owner and reused the name as well as graphics I believe. The only exception I can see to a group being founded with the previous owner (of the group's name you wanted to use) is to buy a group and continue with the current path / graphics that are being used. Syrah is selling his group and allowing people to use the name and userbar.

tl-dr;
Have previous owner as leader or buy a group and have the previous owner give you permission to continue using the name.
OK Thanks. It was just a thought and I looked in the Help Docs and searched this forum and the groups crews and clans forum and didn't find anything.
