I can't believe it doesn't treat permissions in the same way that vBulletin does. Sadly, I've only just found out it doesn't work as it should after I've set everything else up, spending 3 hours in the process.

Likewise, I'll gladly donate $25 IF you get this to work correctly with vBulletin's permission system, frankly I'm amazed you haven't done so already, given the pledges on this thread.

Not to mention, I'd have thought the majority of people installing this system will want to tie it into the subscription system & thus the usergroups.

Erm, I think I've done it anyway! It didn't appear to be very hard to do - so I'm thinking I've missed something! But it appears to work on my setup anyway....

Delete this out of the mod_arcade.php file...
