what's the point of your post? Groups run great with or without the founder here. If you have a penny pinching idea post it, question post it.... No need to have the founder here... Maybe I'[m just stupid but I don't see the purpose to this post really. Sorry

I guess my point was that this group wasn't running for months,
It was stagnant. I've been on groups that are always active a few times a week on their slow days.
I've been on those groups for 10 yrs.
this 1 goes dead for too long & it seems to me it it was dead until I posted this rude post that woke ppl up.

Stupid? no you're not, You've got excellent english skills & your puncuation is great !

Cowboy have you contacted the founder to see if they might pass the group on to you?
If the founder has deleted their membership with DS then DS can pass the foundership on but if the founder is still a member although not active they will not. I have dealt with them in both scenarios.

Founder is still on ds. Not sure if active... But either way... Regardless what do you want? The founder to check in and say Hi to the whole group? LOL Your post didn't "inspire" me to be active again, I'm just active because I came back on the site. I don't even use the email I have registered here so it's not like I came here to specifically check out what someone had said. Groups go inactive not because of founders not posting. People come and people go.. It's just random. If you have a penny pinching idea post it, if not then don't. :) Have a great one.

well said Jody! this group will grow if the members are active! So lets all post something to generate some energy!
