I'm releasing this ported version of an old very tiny hack upon request. It is a 1 line hack that prevents banned usergroups (or any other usergroup you want) to log out. Since they can not log out, they can not reregister either.
The hack prevents them to clear the cookies so they are stuck with their banned usernames in the forum. But obviously this applies:
a) If user is a cookie user
b) If he is not able to clear them manually in his computer.
So the hack is effective for novices only. Tested in vB3.0.0, should work in all vb 3.x versions though. Vb2.x version is here. Click install if you use it, thanks!
This error message, is usually shown if you are in the forums as a simple user (like when you are testing the hack) and at the same time, you use another window to change something in the AdminCP, as the administrator. vBulletin gets mixed up and shows that message.

Also, VB changed the way users logout I believe in one of the RC's. The originally just did a /login.php?do=logout and since have updated it to /login.php?do=logout&u=$bbuserinfo[userid]. Make sure to check your templates, or revert them if necessary.

Any way to clear the login in special cases (like banning the user because the screen name is not acceptable)? Some people we want to log back in under a different name.

Banning them to a usergroup other than 10 would do the trick.
