These are the BPSA frequently asked questions,
and are not for the general aspects of Yahoo! Groups, which may be found
here:
http://help.yahoo.com/help/uk/groups/. However
if you can't find an answer to your question simply
contact us.
Q. Who runs the BPSA?
A. The BPSA is run by a small
committee of active volunteers whom receive no payment for their services.
Q. Why go to the trouble of
getting a Yahoo ID?
A. This
is useful and is our recommended method because it gives you access to our
Group Main (web) Page. Archive postings, preferences settings, group activities
such as on-line live chats, polls and much more... are all available from the
Main Page. The Preferences settings include letting you set message delivery
mode - email, or no email. Yahoo! ID's are free. (You also get a good webmail
facility on the same ID).
Q. I feel like I receive spam
but I want to be a member. I am going to unsubscribe!
A. WAIT
STOP! Hang on a minute - check your preferences page by going to the group's
Main Page at http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/bps-assoc/ and using 'Edit My
Membership' to change 'Message Delivery' to 'No email' This way you are still
a member. Preferences page is a *must* for all new members to set-up correctly.
Q. I think a post has been made that abuses
me personally and has not been removed?
A. Our
Forum is not 'moderated' - that is, postings are not reviewed or censored before
they appear. However, the conditions of Group use are the Yahoo Groups terms,
and "Members who continue to cause offence shall be removed from the Group".
Offensive posts will be removed from the site as soon as possible after we
become aware of them. Please note that emails of postings would have been previously
distributed, and cannot be recalled.
