Everyone on here knows me and my huge run on sentences. I need help with this for DeClutterize Canada.

I am slowly recovering from the Swine Flu. Say a prayer for yourself that you don't get it. I read online where people said it was the worst they had ever felt in their life. Being the cynic I am I thought.....whiners, not in the least!!

Anyway, back to the topic. I am moderating a lot of groups on DeClutterize Canada myself and the spammers really got on my last nerve. After spending 3 days in bed I have over 400 emails from the same spammer that I have to delete from all the groups. I have no choice but to change all Groups over to Membership Pending Approval until I get other people to help moderate. I came up with the following questionaire to auto-send to Pending Members. I don't trust my grammar and punctuation to start uploading it to the Groups. I will post it below.

Please respond with corrections or rewording. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I have a dilemna with telling them they have to respond within 2 days but it may take me time to get to them. I do need that included, is it okay as worded or does it need to be changed?

----------------------------------------------------

Due to the recent influx of a large number of spammers I am given no choice but
to place all new memberships on Moderated Status.

Please complete the following questionaire by telling us a little bit about yourself. If there is no response within 2 days the membership will automatically be denied. Blank responses will also be denied.

We do NOT sell, rent or share this questionaire with anyone else, and it is NOT posted to the group.

1. What is your Email Address?

2. What is your Yahoo ID?

3. Where do you live, Village/Town/City?

4. What is your Postal Code?

5. How did you find out about our Group?

6. Are you a member of Grouply?

Thank you for your response. As I am currently Moderating over 300 Groups personally please be patient pending your Membership approval.

Owner DeClutterize Canada
