It also would not make sense. You can archieve the same result by creating an administrator with low permissions.

I think the most important thing to realize here, GameCrash, is that if we expect Jelsoft to be flexible on this matter, than perhaps we as the users should meet them halfway.
While from a legal standpoint I cannot condone the banning of a code modification, I do understand their concern about providing an automated system where ANY user can simply signup and create their own forum. Logistically speaking, this could pose problems for many users that simply aren't experienced in running sites.
I think we need to review the great capabilities of this hack, and decide where we can make comprimises to appease the Jelsoft team. An outright ban of the hack is VERY bad, but saying that they will work with us would be a step in the right direction.
