Does anyone know of a quick and effective way to change owners of a group?! I asked about a month ago and got no help whatsoever from the Diigo team. If I were creating a program like this, I would include a button that allows one to quit ownership without the stupid error message that Diigo has saying that someone needs to be the owner.
As much as Diigo offers lots of very advanced features, it's nearly impossible for us to have all the every possible features that one wishes to have. There are "MUST-Have" and there are "nice-to-have" features. Our development priorities must be given to tasks that we deem are most urgently needed by most of users, not just occasional needs.
This is added to our To-Do list. Meanwhile, if it's very important for a group to change the ownership, please let us know - we will be glad to assist.
What do you know? Another censored post. What's interesting about this one is that there is absolutely no need to take my word for what it said, because this one made it into the Internet Archive before it was deleted. This gives us some idea of when the deed was done, because the Internet archive records dates. A January 23, 2010 copy of the discussion can be found at the list of archived copies of this discussion in the Internet archive still shows my September 21, 2009 post, meaning that somebody waited over three months to delete my post. As I said, waiting until most of us had stopped watching before tampering with the archives.
Let's take a look at this post of mine which was so offensive, that it had to be taken out of the record, on the sly. Nothing has been changed except for the font and background color.
"Could you tell me the group name and the one who will be the new owner?"
Mr.Liu, you're kidding, right? This should be an easily accessible feature. I know of not a single site other than Diigo on which staff intervention is needed for a group to be transferred from an old owner to a new owner. This is completely unheard of, for reasons that this case makes obvious.
I know that you're still in beta, but come on ... really ...
A mere statement of incredulity, reasonably supported by ample experience, was enough to get somebody on the staff to engage in censorship, in a very sneaky way. People at Diigo: where's your integrity? Where did you get the idea that this was acceptable behavior? Yes, I'm still saving copies of this garbage, and will be inviting people to ask themselves just how much trust Diigo deserves, given that your staff has shown itself to be willing to resort to this sort of game playing.

I am sorry I missed your request. Could you tell me the group name and the one who will be the new owner?
Do you want to delete the group?
Thanks.
