I have removed the multi-table DELETEs.
Hopefully this does work with older mySQL Versions now too.

[Mephisteus]

everything seems like its working fine. Minus one thing, remove the user form the additional usergroup and the moderator access remains (yet disappears if the moderator usergroup is removed as such)

[Andreas]

One missing s, aargh.
Should be fixed now, just import the new product XML.

[Mephisteus]

Looks like its working now Thanks again

[HuangA]

Kirby, can I make a translation of this and post on vbulletin chinese's hacks forum (crediting you of course)?

[Andreas]

Feel free to post an XML with Translated Phrases/Installation instructions, but the Product XML should only be available for Download from here.
Thanks for your understanding

If you do, please send me a copy as well.

[HuangA]

Hm... aren't the phrases part of the product xml? I wonder how I'm gonna translate just the phrases without putting up a different xml oh well, I'll go probe around and see what I can do

[Andreas]

Take a look at the 3.5 Modification Tips&Tricks Forum, I posted a How-To for translating Hacks

Oh man, it works perfect! This is exactly what I needed!

I know this is stupid and I probably shouldn't ask, but would there be anyway to just have the name of the usergroup as the moderator, instead of all of the moderators showing up?

It's no biggy, it would just look nicer. *whistles*

Oh man, but this is awesome. Thanks like.. A MILLION. Really. *worships*

Not possible (without major File Edits).
