I have requested to join a group several times, with no reply. Is it possible the group owner is gone?

Question

The group is Roanoke_Great_Danes. There are new messages, but the owner doesn't reply to my requests to join. There is no reason he/she would be ignoring the request that I know of......can someone else become the moderator so I can find out when the group meets and at which park with their danes? Thanks!

Answer 1

the owner may be on vacation or otherwise unavailable at the time. it could be a period they are trying to ignore pemding embers due to a member they removed of which they keep attempting to rejoin with another ID- endless possibilities-

only an owner can appoint a moderator- yahoo at this time wont at all step in. try e-mailing the owner directly- address is listed at the bottom of every group- all current moderators and owners will get it.  you may want to find another group-

Answer 2

The owner must appoint a new moderator, so you should contact the owner. Have your tried this mail: roanoke_great_danes-subscribe@yahoogroup...

Or you can contact Yahoo Customer Care in order to find out if the owner's mail is bouncing etc...
