Important Club Information!

The conversion from Clubs to Groups has begun. It is being done
alphabetically, Clubs with URLs beginning with numbers or a# have already
been converted:
http://search.clubs.yahoo.com/search/clubs?p=a1

There are some things to note however. Were receiving reports that
photos are *not* being converted, so you are advised to back up your
pictures ASAP if you wish to save them. As far as we can tell everything
else is being converted ok (members, messages, home page info, colours,
bookmarks, etc.)

All Clubs are being converted into web-only/anonymous enabled, meaning
they allow people to sign up with a hidden e-mail and IP address if they
wish. This is not reversible, so converted Clubs will not have polls. It
should also be noted that even with the web-only/anonymous option
enabled, when signing up the default option for message delivery is set
to individual messages by email, so if you suddenly get furious new
members asking you why youre flooding them, you know why. Current
members are set to whatever they had it set to in the Club.

The dates, times and IDs of each message appear to be intact, with the
exception of the first message.

IP and e-mail addresses are still hidden on old posts like they were in
Clubs.

Converted Clubs are defaulted to allow non-members to view messages, and
every other option is hidden, just like in clubs.

The date people joined is publicly displayed in the member list.

Currently members dont have access to the invite feature.

There are still many more things that need to be discovered, some of
which wont be possible until one of our own Clubs is converted, so stay
tuned and keep checking in on Club Masters and The Last Line for up to
date info.

Good luck, we hope your Clubs make it out ok
