Re: Members post and Groups.io unsubscribes them!


 

A move to groups.io always seems to confuse a few people, no matter how hard you try to tell them that it's coming. This is especially to those subscribers on No Email or Special Notices, who generally have to be contacted individually to give them a heads-up.?

Imagine for a moment getting a notice out of the blue that welcomes you to a mysterious site called groups.io (what's this .io top-level domain, anyway?) and says you've been added to a group and tells you where to post messages. If you didn't expect it, you'd no doubt think it was spam. You might reply with a complaint about how you didn't want to be added to any group, then click on that unsub button in a huff. And so I have to wonder what the corresponding messages look like.

Later (perhaps and hour and 50 minutes later?) it dawns on you that this was the same group you were already subscribed to at Y!G, and so you come back and ask to be reinstated...

In any event, I see no clear indication from the log that the unsubs are directly related to posting activity, and suspect this will sort itself out in a day or two. I don't know how many subscribers are in this group, or how frequently they check group emails and actively participate...but if only a handful of them were blindsided, you should probably consider yourself fortunate.
