Owner/Moderator of a group.?

Question

The guy who setup out group site has been killed in a car crash.

How can I take over as a moderator to allow others to join our group?

We have others who would like to join the group but nobody can give them access.

Please help.

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. people have also posted that whenthey contact yahoo, they say sorry and cant do a thing

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

Answer 2

Contact Yahoo and explain the situation, but don't be surprised if you don't get a reply.

You may have to set up a new identical group with yourself as owner / moderator.
