I know it should work, as it does for the members of the Moderators group. But not for this new user group.

When I said "Forum Permissions", I mean the per-forum permissions that override the permissions set in the usergroup manager. I haven't tested it, but I think a "No" in forum permissions will override any other permissions for that forum. The part of the manual you quoted applies to multiple usergroups.
