Rather than show the word 'edit' under every name, why not make it so the status shows and we just click on the status to change it as admins. I have it set so admins can't edit other user statuses and still see that word. Its annoying seeing it under every name WITH the status.

Hm. I think that you must be using an older version of the templates, for two reasons. First, the edit link should not appear under the name anymore, it ought to appear to the right of the status in small print. Second, the bug your reporting (links appearing when admins don't have permission to edit user's status) was fixed in a previous version.

I suggest that you reinstall version 4.01 and follow the upgrade/installation instructions to the letter. (ie. Reupload all files, reimport the product with Allow Overwrite set to Yes, and redo ALL template edits)

The behavior you are describing is not consistent with version 4.01. If you remove all admin usergroups from the usergroup list in vBstatus options admins will not see the edit link.
