Getting real frustrated need help!!!!

Hi,
I am trying to make a decision on an agency and was told to go to the big list on yahoo. We are signed up and ready to post our questions, but can't find where to go to post the questions.

We posted on the regular post and got no answers. I was told if you get on the big list, i would receive many replies. Please give me some advise.

Thank you
Pam

You can do a couple of things,

1. contact people who have used the agencies you are considering, you can do that via pm from the lists at the top of this forum.

2. Go back to the biglist instruction page and use the email address they list there to post to the list.

Hope that helps, Good luck

Did you try putting the name of the agency in your subject? Sometimes that may get more attention.

I would try the 'real' Big List...which is NOT a yahoo group. It is run by the St. John's Listserve. Directions for joining are at:
www.guatadopt.com


If you are a member of the yahoo listserve you should be getting 20-50 messages per day from that group...simply hit reply to a message, change the title, ask for feedback and hit send...hopefully someone will answer.

Good Luck!

Becky's correct. Be sure that you signed up to the correct "Big List" at guatadopt.com I believe the email address has something like stjohnsmaelstrom in it. If you post to it the email that you post will show back up in your in box. I recommend setting up a yahoo or hotmail account just for the big list since you will get tons of email from it.

Also, like was previously posted, it helps to put the name of the Agency you are considering in the reference line.
