Examples of new user and moderator help
I'm getting ready to move a group of mainly non-technical members to GIO, and before I try to develop some help documentation, I thought I would ask what others have done.? I'm sure that some of you

Re: How best to educate about the 'Removed for SPAM' problem
Oh, okay. Well, my opinion (which I think is shared by some others here) is that "informing the member" should be a two-pronged approach: send them a message with re-activation instructions (for in

Re: How best to educate about the 'Removed for SPAM' problem
Do we know any spammers? What do they do? They make a living by minimizing being flagged as spammers. By spammers, I am not (necessarily) referring to the really nefarious ones. For example, it is

Re: How best to educate about the 'Removed for SPAM' problem
We agree that it is desirable for subscribers/members not to become unexpected unsubscribed and for Groups.io's reputation to improve. The differences on how to achieve this are either philosophical

Re: How best to educate about the 'Removed for SPAM' problem

Re: Hiding files from other than moderators #question
I'd like to have the ability to restrict a database to only owners. Right now we use google docs to keep our main member database. That database has information that we would only want the highest

Don't understand how I have the cart before the horse, here.? We may be wrangling with semantics, here, but the end result (whether we say the action is telling groups.io the list member doesn't want

Re: How best to educate about the 'Removed for SPAM' problem
There is no groups.io staff to do what you want. I would rather have Mark doing technical things than documentation things. We in GMF can do the latter...if we're willing to. I hire others to do

Re: How best to educate about the 'Removed for SPAM' problem
This points out that some subscribers/members recognize that it is easier to unsubscribe by mis-marking Groups.io messages as SPAM, than to find and go through the unsubscribe process

Re: pay for group
Jim, Another thought occurred to me. If we were to start donating by upgrading One can choose the group transfer plan (Premium for one month). It doesn't include an automatic renewal each month so

Received from Anita L via Groups.Io at 9/28/2018 02:25 AM UTC: You can't absolutely compel them, but you can provide "incentive." If enough people continue to mark messages as spam they can lead an

Re: How best to educate about the 'Removed for SPAM' problem
I have had some of my subscribers actively do this. They decided that they really didn't want any more group messages. Rather than bother figuring out how to unsub, a message was marked as spam, and

Re: How best to educate about the 'Removed for SPAM' problem
Samuel, I think the best way to "educate" users about a problem such as this one I certainly agree with that, it is what Groups.io already attempts to do. That speaks directly to to Patty's issue. In
