The only thing you need to do is make sure the people who want to "slam" 
LO are kept away from adding their "ideas" to LO's Facebook 
environment.  I do not use the social media, so I do not know the ins 
and outs of them.  But I do know that currently in the USA you employer 
can force you to hand over all your social media account passwords or 
face being fired.  Some States and the Federal governments are trying to 
create laws against this, but it is an uphill battle.

So having LO "groups" approved members, can be helpful as well as not.  
Make sure you talk to your users before you make the changes.

Sometimes what looks good for some is not something the masses like.  
That is MSO does, they decide what their users want and not the users.
