This should be fixed now. Thanks,Mark

I think each of us tends to look at our groups from our own groups’ perspective. Groups run the gamut from laissez faire which pretty much run themselves to strictly controlled and restrictive and

Not necessarily, IMHO. Flagging up too soon might well result in so many false positives that it risks swamping Groups.io with potentially innocent applicants. FWIW we (i.e. the Group I co - own)

I would use it and a tool that I could use help determine if it's a spammer before reporting to you. I have had many such attempts to join beginning with all those aol users, but that was more easily

Mark, I've been meaning to write and since you may be working on new subscribers.... I want more than an email address from my new subscribers. Is there, or could there be, a way to force a new

I glad that you spotted that just before you pressed "send". In many circumstances the same tool can be used by owners & moderators to report suspects to Groups.io, but it doesn't cover every

Please consider adding an optional system footer that does not contain any http/s links for members who are connected to the Internet over slow speed HF radio or satellite links and are only able to

I think this is related to the change, but I'm not 100% sure. On the GMF wiki home page, there are some strange codes inserted into the links in the TOC, though the links seem to work fine. One of

At first glance, that sounds like a great idea. After thinking about it a bit, I'm not so sure. One concern is that some legitimate applicants may get reported based on the patterns of previous
