I tried it, and the new user was automatically banned! OMG what is going on here?

So new users are now going in as administrators.
They are then automatically banned!
PHEW! Not cool!

Sorry to carry on, but it looks as if SOMETHING is adding new members as administrators.
Are you aware of vb.org member ForceHSS? As far as I recall, he MAY have added something to have new administrators automatically banned to avoid hackers. He helped me after my site was hacked, and unfortunately I don't remember as to whether or not that was the case.
He may have done that. I'll have to hit him up.
Regardless, it appears that I have to find what it is that's adding newly registered members of my forum as admins, because after I've changed that status to registered users, everything's fine, they can continue on and use the site as they're supposed to.

Just had a new member register, same thing again. Added as an admin straight away.
