Re: List of group Owners/Admins/Moderators
Frances, Thanks for your hint !? This provided the information I was looking for.
?
As it turns out I am one of the owners, but hadn't used the Admin functions as someone else was primary..
?
Until you provided the hint to filter on Moderator, the all members list did flag who were owners/moderators.

Rush, I assume you are not a moderator or owner of the group.? If you were, you could use Admin, Members, and limit to owners / moderators. However, the best was, as mentioned, is email the official Group Owners email address on the group homepage. Frances ? -- Help available from Groups.io help and GMF wiki.

I know. I’m not saying that ?should enforce, or even suggest it, but why don’t more do it themselves?

Some groups do, some don't.? Others have the information in another area, such as the Guidelines, so that it's not posted publicly.? It's an individual decision by the group owner(s), based on the needs of the group. Duane --

Hi Brenda, in case no one has alerted to this. In his last change, log that was posted on beta, he mentioned that he would be on vacation this week. I believe he returns on July 8. So it'll be sometime after the eighth, whenever he responds probably.

I would recommend putting this in the subject line: TOS Violation and maybe a few words relating to the violation(s). The "TOS" might get Mark's attention on your email. I would list the TOS violations before mentioning the libel thing. Donald On Thu, 27 Jun 2024 07:26:00 -0700, "Frances" <frances@...> wrote: It has been suggested that you contact support.

How would alerting users about phishing result in more spam?
This group has over 3600 members, most of them group owners. If everyone forwarded an "alert" about every phishing email received at their +owner address, there would be dozens of such reports every day. That strikes me as a potentially bigger problem than the phishing emails themselves. In my capacity as a moderator, I'm simply trying to head this off before things get out of hand. ? Regards, Bruce

I will contact the support team and continue with them from here on out. Why has the elephant in the room never been mentioned? One obvious course of action/remedy is to sue the miscreant for libel. More effective, meaningful, totally independent of and cuts off any attempts to circumvent GIO's response. A cease and desist letter from a lawyer might even be sufficient to stop the behavior (although probably not). With 1500 members of your community there might even be a lawyer amongst them willing to take the case pro bono. Monetary damages and a court order should get her attention real quick. Art

I meant to ask this earlier but forgot:
You’re not in this group. Is someone passing these messages on to you? Can that person not take some action within the group, at least to the level of complaining about behaviour likely to lead to the closing of the group?

I would be appreciative if I can get the information where I can file a complaint, or whatever the process is to have this CC4U site looked into. Just this past week, the owner of this site allowed the humiliation of an 86 year old woman. This is what this site allows. Constant bullying. Residents are fed up. But the residents she bullies, are not her members. They are members of my site, TheColonyEmailers. So they have no recourse to defend themselves. The owner won't allow it.
Please provide me the info where I can take this issue for, hopefully, a resolve.

- (i) infringes any intellectual property or other proprietary rights of any party;
- (ii) you do not have a right to upload under any law or under contractual or fiduciary relationships;
- (iii) contains software viruses or any other computer code, files or programs designed to interrupt, destroy or limit the functionality of any computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment;
- (iv) poses or creates a privacy or security risk to any person;
- (v) constitutes unsolicited or unauthorized advertising, promotional materials, commercial activities and/or sales, “junk mail,” “spam,” “chain letters,” “pyramid schemes,” “contests,” “sweepstakes,” or any other form of solicitation;
- (vi) is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortious, excessively violent, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, pornographic, libelous, invasive of another’s privacy, hateful racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable; or
- (vii) in the sole judgment of Groups.io, is objectionable or which restricts or inhibits any other person from using or enjoying the Service, or which may expose Groups.io or its users to any harm or liability of any type;
It seems to me that #6 -- threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, libelous -- would apply here, even if such behavior were directed to someone who's not in that group.
Also, is your group, TheColonyEmailers, a groups.io group?? If so, then it would seem that #7? -- objectionable or which restricts or inhibits any other person from using or enjoying the Service -- would also apply.
As others have said, send mail to [email protected] and include examples of the behavior(s) that you describe directed towards you and/or others.

Brenda,
It has been suggested that you contact support. The Terms oF Service says
Please contact us at [email protected] to report any violations of these Terms of Service or to pose any questions regarding this Terms of Service or the Service.
However note that the terms also says: User Disputes
"You agree that you are solely responsible for your interactions with any other user in connection with the Service and Groups.io will have no liability or responsibility with respect thereto. Groups.io reserves the right, but has no obligation, to become involved in any way with disputes between you and any other user of the Service." Read the whole document here. Quote the relevant bits to Support.
/static/tos
At the same time, you might try an additional way to back off. If yours is an organized 55 plus community, is there some organization like a condo or strata board of directors, or management company? ?Whether or not she is an owner / occupier of a unit in your community, they may do something since she is putting your community in disrepute.
I would also suggest encouraging others to complain as well.
Frances
PS I don't think we can do anything else for you.
