Last week I mentioned in a post the old Yahoo BoTP group -- which I hadn't thought about for around 15 years... Then yesterday I get an email letting me know that the old Yahoo group now has a new address. I logged in and was happy to see old friends there but, man, this was weird... So anyway, if anyone else is interested in the group, the address is BoTP at groups.io. There I lurk under my real name, don't look for Daniella! But I have the same signature, so you will spot me easily.

Hi Daniella, Your post reminded me... I received a message from TinaG who wanted to let other Yahoo Group members know they are going to delete old group messages in mid-December. You can see more information about it here. I haven't logged in or posted there for ages. I don't think my old account is active. But if anyone else wants to save their old posts, I guess now is the time. The Other Jason www.battleoftheplanets.info

Yep, the BotP mailing list is officially transferred over to Groups.io, along with the full archive of messages, files, spreadsheets, and images. The only thing we weren't able to save were the calendar events (James, so sorry) And, thankfully, we were able to do it before Yahoo deleted all of those things. The full member list was moved over, all except those email addresses that are bouncing. New home for the mailing list is at /g/BotPhttps://groups.io/g/BotP Here is the announcement made to the mailing list after the move: We made it before Yahoo deleted all our messages and file! Groups.io has really been jumping to get thousands of groups ported over. One downside is that we lost all the calendar events. James had put a lot of work into that for member birthdays, media, voice actor anniversaries, important historical events, and so on. So sorry, James! Seriously, James and Jason, thank you for all that you post and the information you give and all you've contributed to the fandom and the franchise. So, going forward this will be the new home for the mailing list. Please do not post to the Yahoo group. I'm going to be putting information up over there to point people over here. No other messages, files, or data will be imported out of Yahoo to come here. Here are a few stats about our transfer: 514 members transferred 18,269 topics transferred 804 Photos 187 Files 41 links Here are the group's new email addresses: Group Email Addresses Post: [EMAIL]BotP@groups.io[/EMAIL] Subscribe: BotP+subscribe@groups.io Unsubscribe: BotP+unsubscribe@groups.io Group Owner: BotP+owner@groups.io Help: BotP+help@groups.io Welcome aboard!
