More thoughts: If you create a FFL2, you'd probably have to post to it occasionally to make sure that it wasn't cancelled by Yahoo, but I think they would send the owner or moderator(s) warnings before doing so. You may also need to have two or members to stay in business.
Another thought is that you might create a group just for the purpose of experimenting with what made Yahoo change the category. This would be a group that doesn't allow new memberships. Examples of tests: a) You could put the full FFL description on the home page and wait a few days to see what happens. Maybe you would get immediate feedback, like when you were not able to save the word "bondage" in the description. b) Try uploading the "Sexy Sadie" files. If the switch of category of FFL was "automated," these kinds of tests ought to yield some results. If it was caused by someone's complaints, well, that's another matter. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, anonymousff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Rick, > > Here's an idea: > > Create a new group called FairfieldLife2.
