In this context, a DERP Group is a collection of accounts on the Steem blockchain that operates in an anomalous fashion.
All anomalous groups requiring special containment procedures are assigned a Group Class. A Group Class is a part of the standard DERP template and serves as a rough indicator for how difficult a group is to contain. Group Classes are for the purposes of identifying containment needs, research priority, budgeting, and other considerations. A DERP's Group Class is determined by a number of factors, but the most important factors are the difficulty and the purpose of its containment.
Group Classes:
Safe
- groups that are easily and safely containedEuclid
- groups that require more resources to contain completely or where containment isn't always reliableKeter
- groups that are exceedingly difficult to contain consistently or reliably, with containment procedures often being extensive and complexThaumiel
- groups used to contain other groupsNeutralized
- groups that are no longer anomalous, either through having been intentionally or accidentally destroyed, disabled, or disbanded
Group Series:
A group series roughly corresponds to bull market formations where general interest in the platform peaks (also known as The Woodwork).

Rules
These are the rules on the community main page, but with more detail.
- This is a place to collect facts. Sometimes bits of information is all over the blockchain. Bring it all together into one report.
- This is not a place to originate doxing. There's no need to start doxing someone in a report, especially if it's not on-chain yet.
- Do not repeat dox material found on-chain (leave it there for Level-03 and up to find). Allude to it if needed, but don't repeat it. This makes for a more mysterious report anyway.
- This is a place to re-contextualize what is on-chain. Sometimes people only have half the narrative in their heads. A complete report that starts from the beginning and reaches a conclusion can fill in the gaps.
