I like the idea, but put in a rule that a group Owner can't unsubscribe this way. If an Owner wants to unsubscribe, it should be an unmistakable request. JohnF

I thought of another option. In unmoderated groups, allow a "Moderate by Subject" option. That is, most posts come in OK, but if the subject/title matches (contains) one of the moderated subjects, the

My opinion: You don't need a Close/Hide/Unhide option, as you don't want to complicate the interface for rare situations, but you could make deleting a closed thread essentially the same as Hiding it,

I am not a lawyer. However, according to http://www.dmlp.org/legal-guide/linking-copyrighted-materials, allowing a link to copyight-infringing materials to stay up could be considered "Contributory co

Mark, the polls are looking great! I just noticed something, closing out my old multi-choice poll. I think the percentages on polls where multiple choices can be selected aren't being calculated as ex

An email mentioned early in the message, like nobody@..., is edited out when viewing the message, but on the messages list where the first line of each message is shown, the email is displayed

How about giving the user editing the poll the choice to discard or keep all previous answers, and the user will decide which is most appropriate in their situation. JohnF

My real point of creating that poll, of course, is to see what it would be like. It looks like votes are cast the instant you check a box or select a radio button, because you can't show results if th

A new poll has been created: What do you think of polls that offer multiple choices and don't show the results immediately? 1. I love them! 2. I hate them! 3. I selected both of the above just to be o

Well, I guess the first question is, what happens if someone does reply to the message? Like "Get me off this list!" Does it go to someone, or does it bounce, or does it post a new topic? If it bounce

So if a subscriber makes a sub group, does that subscriber become an owner of the sub group, or still just a subscriber? I was thinking of a situation where the regular group owner might want a subscr

My opinion: No, don't set up specific first/last name fields. Not all names fit into this concept (who is that JohnF guy anyway?). If an owner/moderator really needs a list of members sorted by last n

During the downtime, Firefox was displaying an error that the site was "redirecting in a way that will never resolve" or something like that. I was thinking the site was probably going to be like that

Welcome to Groups.io, Dr. Christian! Your fonts all worked out to be the same. I wanted to point out that Groups.io does support multiple email addresses per account, just not as easily as it maybe sh

Look at your message directly on the beta group, and you'll see another bug. Maybe one that could lead to a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. (That's just speculation.) JohnF

I ran a lookup on theglobalvoice.info from my own name service, and they don't have a mail exchange definition set up. That's something they should really fix. They do have a regular name service defi

Here are the problems I see with this idea: 1. Lose your email provider, lose your groups.io account. If your email address goes away for any reason (like the provider going bankrupt), there is no way

It's looking great! You might want to be aware, though, that if a group has never had any messages at all, it lists the last message date as 12/31/69, the famous (time_t)(-1). Not a big deal. JohnF

In my case, I'd rather have the time of most recent message than number of recent messages. If I know I last read the group around two hours ago, and the time of most recent message is 35 minutes ago,

I also vote to make the Subscriptions page the home page. If one or two groups gets significantly more traffic than the others, they tend to dominate the combined message view, even if I might care ab
