Question

the owner of NeFloridaTradeAndBarter group no longer has an active e-mail registered and the group is moderater approved posting only so now no messages have been approved since 2007... how do you get the owner kicked?

Answer 1

it is said that if you contact yahoo, they will appoint a moderator (not an owner) if a poll is conducted to vote one in by the members of the group. however yahoo hasn't said what priviledges they'd give as moderator.

some have said they tried this method, and once yahoo knew there was no active owner, they deleted the group as part of clean-up.

your other choice is to create another group and invite those active members to it. this is probably the better of choice since there's then be an owner.

either way, here's the help form
