I've been trying for 3 weeks to join the Grundig Satellit Yahoo group
and
my membership has been pending since 3 weeks ! I have sent some
emails
to
the group moderator but he looks like being either blind or dumb. I
do
hope
he is still alive. I know the memberships must be accepted. I don't
see
any
reason why mine should not be. Well, that's my opinion !!! I have
joined
a
lot of Yahoo groups in the past, it's the first time it happens. Did
anybody
experience such a delay in joining this particular group? Does anybody
know
what I could do to make the process a bit faster ? I just want to use
tact
and discretion !
Thanks in advance

I ran into the same thing about a year ago, And was refused membership
!!!?...I hate to say this but I think he has some prejudices regarding
the
country of origin. The reason are never stated, of course but I have
never
run into this, in any other group I have applied to join .

I wouldn't lose too much sleep over it :-)).

I doubt it's anything as sinister as that. I think that it is much more
likely that you got rejected due to anti-spam measures gone wrong.

Recently, I noticed the moderator of the SW77 group mentioned that about
20%
of the applications for his group were spam-related. He sends out an
e-mail
that you have to reply as a short note back, and you're in. Some of the
automated anti-spam measures on Yahoo Groups have been known to go on the
fritz as well.

If you included an "anti-spam measure" like you did (smartly) in your
usenet
address in the post above, then the automated measures (or an admin not
paying attention) would get a bounced note and not let you in.

I suggest you re-apply using this method for dealing with Yahoo Groups:
First, open yourself a free Yahoo mail account. Then use that account to
apply for the admission to the group (after all, you could care less if it
gets spammed). Just be sure to check it until you're in.

Thanks for your reply, I never thought much about it at the time, I could be
mistaken, but some time later I thought there were some threads of a
political nature regarding the administrator of that n/g. but any rate, your
explanation seems more logical.

Logic has little meaning when dealing with JJ, administrator of the SAT800
group. He's certifiably insane. He kicked me off the list for simply asking him
to stick to the SAT800 instead of delivering his long political tirades.

You're not missing much.

And you Fat Boy? What are you? Anyone who tries to inflate their personal standing
by stating that they have a PhD when indeed they do not have one certainly has some
problems!

Wouldn't you agree?

Steve, try taking your meds. Maybe, then, you can remember the day you lost
your job. I think some interesting archival material would cast doubt on your
honesty.

BTW, you've never proven I don't have a PhD.

Whether I do or not, why is it such a big obsession of yours?

Get a grip. You've lost it. Find it.

Awaiting your elementary-style school bully routine,

Stick to fighting with me in the designated off-topic threads and quit
polluting any thread where I make a post. Stop bothering other people with your
obsessive need to act like a 2nd grade bully.

Your SW info is good, but your maturity is pretty damn low.

Now that's funny. Mike - you wanted the group to stay on topic?

Sorry Steve Bryant wins this one. He is an expert on insanity and
certified by the many posts he has made.

I bet that this is the 6 week cycle for JJ--and he's off the meds again
I wish you the best of luck in finding ANYTHING of use in that group.
It really seems to be a personal rant group for JJ (Woody).
