Hey there - I could use a little help. I have a friend that creates group messages often. If someone stops hanging out, or they don't answer a lot, or they get into an argument etc. it's honestly super annoying. Usually the group just goes away after a while, because I'm not the only one that seems to be annoyed with it. I turn off notifications, mute the thread, archive it, but every time someone sends something it comes back or they create a new one. Please help

Yes I've talked to them, they think I'm joking. Between this and the "hi is this linda " messages I get, I'm about ready to change my phone number, but would really rather not.
