Ok I see how the join link works. I had someone join my team and I could see the accept/deny options. You have been doing a great job updating this mod for everyone. Just thought I would extend my gratitude.

Here is what I see as immediate needs on the teams.

1. Ability to delete someone from your team.
2. Delete teams.
3. Option to add people to our teams our self with auto notification to user when they are added. Maybe add the fetch user feature to this.
4. Option to allow a usergroup to edit/delete others teams.

Shouldn't do.

Last two updates have only been minor releases fixing bugs (eg. sending pms to full inbox). Don't worry I wont forgot about adding feature to switch players.

Upgrade to 2.3.8 without a hitch. Nice to see delete teams and also the ability to have a usergroup edit. Glad you put in the option for us to decide how many teams a usergroup can make.

Nice Job!

Very nice. I have 25 or so people doing beta testing on this. I will continue to let you know of any bugs.

Found Bugs
1. When you edit the Bio and you switch the editor mode it will not save your change.
2. When you edit a tournament, it is not showing you the edit date/time options by default. This could be confusing as some members didnt take note to the yes/no radio button. Not sure you need that option. I would just display the edit details by default and remove the yes/no radio buttons all together.

Continued option requests are,

Teams
1. Ability to delete someone from your team.
2. Option to add people to our teams our self with auto notification to user when they are added. Maybe add the fetch user feature to this.

Other requests.
1. Ability to edit a users wins/joins. We actually had a situation where it was not reporting an accurate number.
2. Display the creator of the Tournament.
3. When you add a member to a tourny, perhaps it could auto PM the user notifying them they were added. Maybe even further it should put them in a queue when you add them forcing them to accept first. This would assist when you create a tourny to challange someone, they should either accept or decline it. If a team is involved in all this, notifications should go to all members in that team similar to the individual.
