Re: Group Transfer Question - Two Groups.IO Memberships
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýMost of the people on my group are over 50.?? And while they may not be crack programmers, they certainly know how to use a computer (and a smartphone) and had no trouble at all with our transfer.??? I'm an old woman myself, (75 next month) thank you, and I'm a group owner and know how to get around 21st-century devices as well or better than many thirty-year-olds.Katherine Wolfthal Katherine S.

Okay, so being that the vast majority of my Yahoo Groups list membership are women over the age of 50 (read:? Little to no computer understanding), here's what is happening now:? I am getting old list members who were transferred (with probably some old email address they had on file with Yahoo Groups), trying to apply to our new Groups.IO, having created a NEW ID on Groups.IO with a different email address.? OH BOTHER!!!!? I warned them (a gazillion times) on the Yahoo Group NOT TO DO THIS (yes, it was typed in all caps).? Still happening.? What can be done with what are essentially duplicate membership requests?? I am currently declining these dup requests, and telling them to sign into Groups.IO with their current ID (their old email address), then go to the subscription page and change their email address to the new email address.? Will this trigger something with Groups.IO to see they already have an account with this ID?? And, will the merge instructions then pop up?? Ugh.? Old women.? What can you do with them?!?!? |
