Re: Moderators Assigned/Restricted Membership

2003-08-05 by drumzilla

Thanks so much, Rolf.  I'm so glad you responded to my e-mails to you 
& made contact with this group again.  The moderators the group has 
now will keep things straight from now on.

Re: Restricted Membership.  It really is no hassle whatsoever for the 
potential member.  All they do is hit the JOIN THIS GROUP button, 
same as always.  A prompt will pop up in the "Pending" area, and as 
soon as a moderator checks it out & thinks it's okay, he just 
approves the request.  BAM!...done.

If you moderate individual messages, that means that everything 
posted must be approved by a moderator.  When traffic's heavy that 
may be quite time consuming.  I like the restricted membership method 
better myself.

You can also, as previously suggested, moderate messages from newbies 
until they've proven themselves to be good citizens, then un-moderate 
them.

One more thing, as I roam around Yahoo groups, any time I see someone 
posting anything inappropriate, such as porn sites, I copy their e-
mail address to my banned list.  That way they can't join EVER & 
don't have to be messed with even once.

So glad you guys are up & running again.  Very pleased I could help.
