FOG no longer on Yahoo! Groups?
I can no longer find the English language FOG group in Yahoo! Groups. Can others see it?

Re: FOG no longer on Yahoo! Groups?
When you do a google search you get this message-
'FieldofGlory : Field of Glory - Games - Yahoo!
games.groups.yahoo.com/group/FieldofGlory/ - Cached
Welcome to this worldwide discussion group dedicated to the ancient-medieval
miniatures rule set Field of Glory (FoG) designed by Richard Bodley Scott, Simon ...'
But when you click on this link you get this-
'Group Not Found
There is no group called FieldofGlory. Please make sure you typed the web address correctly. If you have done so, the group may no longer exist.
You may also search or browse for groups on the Yahoo! Groups Home Page'
I was a member of the yahoo group and noticed it missing today.
You lot been misbehaving there?

I think you may be trying to access it in offline mode with the wrong screen resolution and the wrong access code .... that seems to be the usual tech solution :-_)grahambriggs wrote:I can no longer find the English language FOG group in Yahoo! Groups. Can others see it?

I think it's just been deleted for some reason. I noticed yesterday that the more recent posts had been wiped.

Re: FOG no longer on Yahoo! Groups?
I noticed it was missing from my list of groups yesterday. I think the moderator was bowing out because he was no longer interested in the rules.
It didn't seem a very popular site. North American FoG has more traffic.

If anyone knows who the list owner or moderators are, emailing them would be the best way to find out what happened and to possibly revive the group if it has been shut down.

Odd. Either the mod deleted it, in which case, why? Or yahoo has a problem with it, in which case the mod has to deal with it.
Google cache has the last post as Monday, but nothing strange showing.

The FoG:R list is still there - perhaps Slitherine's copy protection on FoG:AM v2 is very aggressive

I have a daily digest from yesterday, but when I click the link to the group it says "There is no group called FieldofGlory...."

The Oz_FOG (Australian fog group) is also inaccesible. Something strange going on

Re: FOG no longer on Yahoo! Groups?
The owner of the OZ_FOG group and the Field of Glory Yahoo Group (who I believe was one and the same) posted sometime ago that he was no longer interested in FOG and wanted someone else to take over. One day this week (I want to say Monday), he posted that he was stepping down and basically calling it a day. After that, it looks like the groups drifted off into yahoo-neverland.

Re: FOG no longer on Yahoo! Groups?
I just created
Field-of-Glory@yahoogroups.com
Field-of-Glory-subscribe@yahoogroups.com
to replace the lost one. Everyone re-join. We will distribute ownership and moderators to the usual willing suspects.

I was one of the Moderators on the Oz_FoG site. It seems that Mark Mann (who asked 'anyone want to own it?') must have accidentally killed it at the same time, because moments after he asked I put my hand up as owner and both his yahoo e-mail and the oz_fog e-mail bounced as 'not in existence'.
