RR Group on Yahoo?

[boater sam]

Does anyone here use the Roberts Radio Group Forum on Yahoo?

I have tried to get this to work properly for weeks without success. I type a message answering my thread and it refuses to send it.
After 2 tries it errasses the message and dumps me out with"loading" displayed - for ever.

I hate Yahoo!

Hi Sam
Have a word with Paul_RK on UKVRR, I think he used to run the Yahoo RR user group.

Sorry, just spotted this thread: things are a bit chaotic around here lately. Which would be a kind way of describing how they are with Yahoo groups - looks as though you succeeded in posting your message, as shortly after you posted here I received four copies of it each about a minute after the preceding one! Not sure what to say except to note that the system seems to be getting ever more broken, and the Roberts group, and for that matter the Hacker ones too, may well need to migrate to another service before long if they're to keep going at all.

Thanks Paul, that was my impression too.
Yahoo is a complete mess now, more are migrating away and no wonder.
I had to use it for the Flickr account originally.
Sorry about the multiple posts, not of my doing! I gave up after trying twice.
Sam.

It's probably my ignorance but I find it pretty much impossible to follow conversations on Yahoo. I have tried on both the Hacker and Roberts groups but I always give up. To follow a thread from beginning to end is clearly beyond me.

Its a shame the groups aren't on conventional forums because I know there is some really good stuff on there but accessing it is so frustrating.

I assumed clicking "show all messages in this topic" would list the messages in chronological order but it doesn't seem to do that?

You are not alone John.

Yahoo is terrible. The sooner that those 2 forums move off it and onto something else the better.

Sam.

Same with GQRX group. Eventually I gave up and came off it.
It really got confusing along with many hundreds of duplicate messages.
