As far as I'm concerned, my *opinion* is that it is up to each group owner to decide whether or not he or she needs a backup co-owner. It is not up to individuals outside of the group to decide. In

Yahoo Groups did at one time have a provision for missing group owners. If the owner had not logged in to their Yahoo account for some period of time, group members could petition Support to create a

Thanks David, I Only just learned of the hover feature. It is helpful, but there are many reasons and I admit not understanding some of them. But, perhaps the bottom line for me is that I like being

And what then when the "super owner" keels over and is no more? You would then have a conventional "owner" or "owners" with the same resulting problem Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK)

This seems to be another suggestion to have a technical solution to a problem that is caused by group owners not following the guidance in the manual.? If a super owner role was created you'd still

As I see it, the PROBLEM is that owners won't use the existing solutions or aren't aware that they can privately pass on ownership when they die.? Of all people, I learned about digital estates from

One partial step could be to create a new class of "super owner" who cannot be deleted by conventional owners. This could give original "super owners" the confidence to appoint more conventional

Isn't the main problem here that the groups automatically are part of the owner's digital estates? It has been my understanding for many years that was the issue that Groups IO, or any other group

I think I would argue that the existence of this topic (and those on the same subject that have arisen in the past), and the inclusion of the post from which I have quoted rather proves the opposite

As a workaround, I granted my moderators all permissions, including that of appointing other moderators. So they will be able to run the group in any circumstance. I'd rather keep the Owner status,

I suggest this "workaround" actually works well for most Groups. I can't imagine many instances of malicious intent within the "mutual interest" universe of Groups.IO; I wouldn't want to be a member

I've discovered recently that you can make your ownership of a group (or any other online account) part of your estate in your traditional will or as a separate digital will in some states.? That

Frances, I respectfully disagree. It is long past time for this ongoing problem to be resolved. The first step is to acknowledge that it IS a PROBLEM, most specifically a continuing one in desperate

I have an Assistant Administrator for our group. She is a great person and takes over when I am away from my computer for personal or business reasons.?After talking with her, several years ago I

Surely the 'flaw' is with the group owner that fails to consider to the consequences for other members if they are no longer around or able to manage the group.? Having any kind of transfer option

Hello all Wouldn't it be nice if GroupsIO had some sort of feature that an owner could set like if he/she does not log on to the Group in a period of x months or years, then moderator(s) 1 (a new

No "Owner Succession" feature (a Group 'will') is a flaw that Groups.io (and YahooGroups) share(d). Every time I've seen one proposed, those who would not use it have railed against having one. They

Keep in mind whoever is added as owner could delete the group and add others as owners. So be sure of the people you make owners. Jim Excess footer removed by moderator.

Yet again a group is threatened with dissolution because the sole group owner has died. Time to do something about that now, while you can. Find at least one other person in your group (or someone

Something that has been suggested before - see if some family member of the deceased owner can access the site, probably on the same hardware. That member can make someone else (or hopefully 2 someone
