IMPORTANT!!!! Read the bit below before subscribing, please.
This group discusses issues related to an Extensive Reading approach to reading particularly in second and foreign languages.
This group is now a target for spam attacks so if you wish to join please send TWO emails. One to the normal subscribe address ExtensiveReading-subscribe@yahoogroups.com and another to waring_robert @ yahoo.com (the moderator's address) explaining your reasons for joining. Anyone who does not appear to be a spammer will be admitted.
However, if you only send a subscription message with no follow up email, you will not be admitted. A simple message such as 'I like this group' or 'I want to learn from this group' is not enough. These messages are often used by spammers so I ignore all those who do not provide adequate information to show me they are interested in ER. I've been fooled a few times already as I want to respect the integrity of the group and let only serious ER types in.
The message MUST include your reasons for wanting to join this group. This MUST include:
a) your interest in ER
b) why you want to join the group
c) a bit about your background
This need not be longer than 2-3 sentences.
It may take a few days before I can get round to joining you up. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Commercial messages are generally not allowed especially if the poster has not declared a financial interest or is blatantly self-promoting either a website (even if it is an EFL/ESL one) or their own materials. Members are asked to inquire of the Moderator before posting such messages or they will _be_banned_on_first_offence.
