Title: Xfrog Yahoo Group SPAM
Post by: MGebhart on August 17, 2010, 09:53:54 PM
Who belongs to this Group here?

I had to unsubscribe due to an inordinate amount of SPAM. Does anyone else have the same problem?

I have never heard of user groups until I got a copy of Xfrog. This is funny. I had no idea they were old school. Well , that explains the nonsense of it all. Man is my face red.  :-[

"Founded: May 30, 1998"   That's like 150 years ago in computer speak!  ;D

those user groups have been very valuable...back then ;-)

The Xfrog user group leader wrote to Yahoo, response was that they won´t do anything about it. The only option would be to set this group to moderated only. AFAIK Greenworks, or better Xfrog.inc, plans to run its own forum for support purposes.
