I'm still in trouble with the Grads group

[Guest guest]

Eleanor,

Would you do me a favor? A year or so ago I was banned from the

Graduates group because I objected to some folks' very forceful

religious posts (telling me how very important it is to praise their

god).

Usually online list moderators' etiquette allows an offensive poster

to be warned before they're banned outright. However, I was banned

without any warning, and people on that list don't even know that I

was banned. I tried to check out the site, but I found that I am still

banned. I have no way to write to the moderators and ask that I be

reinstated. I can only lurk.

Can you please write to the moderators and ask them to reinstate me?

If they turn you down, then perhaps I'm better off not joining that list.

Thanks.

Martha

Will do this afternoon! I'm headed off to lunch with my DH (in his case

it's Darling Hubby!). I've flagged your message to take care of that as

soon as I come back.

A little over a year ago there was a change in ownership of the Grads

list, so it may have been the previous administration that squelched

you. I think you'd be a great addition to that group!

If you guys thing this list is busy, think twice about

the grad list. LOL I have been on it for about two

years, (although I just had surgery last month). It

is about three times as busy as this list. The people

there are opinionated and often harsh. It's full of

good info! Just a little heads up...

Laurie,

I just joined their group and the rules alone kinda scared me lol,,

They are very clear on what kind of group it is. I am such the warm

and fuzzy kinda girl! Not sure how long i'll last in there I'll

give it a trie though,and im glad they really warn you about what

type of group it is upfront.

Shell, you can't beat it for the info you get, but, well, I have

never seen a group quite like is. Lots of VERY STRONG

personalities. They scare me. LOL
