I own a group but my account was closed?

Question

I own a group using a yahoo ID I haven't signed into in over 3 years. When I try to sign in using the Yahoo ID it tells me that the Yahoo ID doesn't exist. In the group, it shows the user ID as the owner of the group. What can I do?

Answer 1

Answer 2

when ID's are deleted due to non use, they don't automatically get removed from groups. there's many groups with bouncing members and owners due to this very reason. 3 years is too long of a time as well. you need that ID to regain owner control, w/o it there's nothing you can do.
