[dirtycrow]

anyway to have it display thread bans to all users?

[WNxWakko]

Can you make this usergroup based so we can pick what groups can and cant use this?

Awsome hack. Like many have said I would like to see the regular mods have this power IMO since they typically do most of the work....

Fantastic, using it on a forum I am admin on, can you possibly add a feature to change the message when you have banned a user, as I cannot find the code to edit to change this.

Hi,

If you go to "Search in Phrases" >> for You have been removed from

It will be there and you can change it to whatever you want

only admins are allowed to view my archive....and i password protected it just to be sure lol would that work for you?

then to top it all off i added the HIDE ressurection to the forum...gave out admin and registered user id's...told everyone that it was open to the public now to use the hidden block id's....so maybe you could try that...put him in a different usergroup...just a thought...

or just change the permissions on the user in the usermasks i think it is...
