ADMIN: Yahoo! Groups New Website

Hi all!

We have received a ton of emails from members asking what is going on with the Yahoo! Groups site.

The quick answer is... Yahoo! Groups has updated their sites and our site is one of the beta testing groups. This means that our group has changed over to the new format before most have.

We understand that you are frustrated and confused, and you are not alone. We are not able to change the settings to the group and you may find some new features that are a bit undesirable.

Here are the things that we have figured out:

1. When you hover on a post and click 'Reply', your post does not go directly to the member. It is posted to the group.
2. If you have a picture on your Yahoo! profile, it will now be seen.
3. If you have a Yahoo! profile, any information on it is now visible to everyone.
4. Some posts are delayed or getting lost.
5. Some members have reported as not being able to sign onto the site.

We take our members security VERY seriously! We are not happy with these changes but as with all Yahoo! updates, they usually pan out within a few days. Please try to be patient as we try to figure things out as this is brand new to us as well.

We encourage you to contact Yahoo! Groups and let them know how you feel about the 'New and Improved' Yahoo! Groups site. Here is the link:

Thank you for your patience during this trying time with our group!
