I need Step-by-step instruction on how as Moderator, I can remove an unwanted member in my yahoogroup.?

Question

I never invited this person; neither did he ask to be included. His email address just popped up as a member.

Answer 1

1. Go to your group's homepage.

2. On the left-hand side find "members"

3. On the Members page, find the member and click "Remove" in the upper right to remove anyone from the group.

You can permanently ban the member by clicking Ban in the upper right of the Members area.

How do I ban a member?

The Ban Member feature should be used with care. Banning removes the member and prevents the member from rejoining the group until the ban is removed.

To ban a member:

1. Click Members from the list on the left of any page.

2. Find the person you want to ban.

3. Click Edit Membership next to their name.

4. Click Ban Member at the bottom of the page.

Note: You can also ban the author of a message directly from the individual message page by clicking Ban author under their Yahoo! ID.

Note: You can ban a person from your group even if that person is not already a member. This allows you to prevent people you know to be troublesome from joining your group in the first place.

Answer 2

Go to: "Members" of your group's homepage in the menu to the left and then type in the user ID or e-mail address of the person you want to remove in the search box.  After their name shows up look for a little box to the right side of the screen that says, "remove" right above it.  Check the box and then click "Save" and it will remove the person from the list.  If you need to ban them, at the top of the page for the "Members" section is an option that says, "Ban" and when you click on that it will show you a text box to put the e-mail or User ID (if they are a user of Yahoo) in.  After you type it in click "Save" and then they will be on the list of those that are banned.
