Re: banned members notified they're banned when try to log in - I thought this was stopped?
That is distinctly not what I am doing. Everyone is entitled to fill out the questionnaire or not. Sometimes people leave because their cat died. I am certainly not going to ban someone if I don't

There is also nothing wrong with trying to see why somebody left a group, which, despite Dano's misinterpretation, is what's being discussed. It's one reason premium groups may use the Past Members

Re: banned members notified they're banned when try to log in - I thought this was stopped?
I agree with the ban if for example someone does not answer why they leave, etc. I don't use good bye surveys but if I did I would ban the member from coming back if they did not take the time to

There is nothing wrong with trying to see why somebody got banned. That is not the reason for this thread. The OP was not trying to see why people had been banned, she was banning them herself because

I have to say I'm surprised at the judgmental nature of the responses to J's question. When did we stop trying to help each other and instead became unappointed judges of what people do?? Why is it

gray out, or make invisible, "Banned" within the members dropdown if mod lacks permission to see it
#suggestion
Self-explanatory. Currently, "Banned" appears as one of the options in the Members dropdown even if the moderator has no permission to view it. When clicked on, it takes the mod to the Pending list.

Yes, Duane, I'd just come to that conclusion. I have access to the members list but can't change member's statuses. However, in those cases it would be preferable to not display the "banned" element

You don't have sufficient privileges then. Works fine for owners and many moderators on free groups.

J -- Please let me offer a criticism that might be more appropriate.
If I understand correctly, you are using the ban function for a purpose that it was not intended for -- followed by wondering why

You and I evidently use groups in different ways. And that is our, and everyone’s, perorative. That was clear when you strongly protested the availability of information on pending members that many

Yes, wrong word. But you are implying that if they don’t respond, I have no right to look into their past history and notes to try to determine why. Doing that is patently not an abuse of the system

I never said you are punishing them, and I've no idea why you've used that word. I am commenting on the fact that you are using a groups.io function for a purpose entirely different to its intended

With your logic, the entire existence and use by moderators of the past members page (available only to premium groups) must qualify as abusive nosying around as well. I’m sorry you feel that way.

Wow. This has nothing to do with punishing them for not responding. In the interest of my group, I simply want to see a record of their interaction, and any notes I or another mod might have made in

I'm gobsmacked that you use the ban function in this way. If people don't wish to respond to your goodbye message, that's their prerogative. IMO nosying around after them in other ways is
