Group owner is not contactable, how to manage the group?

I and several other members are part of a group. Group was made in 2002 and group's owner is not traceable. There are no moderators / administrators. We are receiving many spams and want to manage the group better. What is the way, can i request yahoo to reset password or make one of us as administrator?

    i imagine that is unhappily predictable, what you've defined. A controlling personality has a tendency to be unable to enable others to do issues their way and so has a tendency to become abusive, because of a feeling of vulnerability, an underlying concern of the international, a feeling that the international is a nasty position it truly is antagonistic. the guy is controlling of others with the aid of the undeniable fact that man or woman can't extremely administration circumstances, or the international at large, and probably no longer himself or herself. yet likely this man or woman does no longer see this. No, that is the international it truly is defective, and if the guy loses his or her mood, that is in common words because someone or something outside has added on that -- unavoidably. So a set intervention is, regrettably, very nearly doomed to fail. such someone, who already believes that the international is a nasty position, will in common words see such an attempt as confirmation of that theory. the guy is saying, in result: "Ah, the international is unquestionably a negative position, and the following, even the nearest contributors of my kin have became adverse to me! And all that i have ever performed become attempt to preserve those kin contributors to the finest of my ability." it ought to look manipulative to an outsider, the failings that this man or woman says. yet i imagine that that is honestly how the guy sees issues. she or he extremely can't see issues as others do because she or he's so stuck up contained in the selfish view of issues, she or he can't take the different's attitude, no longer even for a second. I say all this from lengthy journey dealing with only such someone, someone whom i respect dearly, yet whom I honestly were thoroughly unable to enlighten on such issues. I honestly have tried to point that such controlling habit means that he does no longer believe me. His reaction is that he does believe me -- that is something of the international that he does no longer believe and he's attempting to guard me. that is performed out of love, you spot. that is faulty and that is maximum uncomfortable. i'm afraid that I honestly don't have any magic formula to remedy the project, yet perchance you'll locate slightly better the nature of the project. The abusive shopper should be dealt with as a man or woman with a deep-seated own difficulty, i imagine, someone who lacks believe contained in the international, and someone who lacks self-love. that is extremely an extremely unhappy, lonely, determined man or woman.
