Hello ,
Not private ... but we have some users that invite others to a specific argumentation to show a specific result . I think it is very near to your code but in difference of (==) & ( != )when you check can users access to thread or not . It means the thread starter or moderator can specify usernames that they can reply to the thread instead of specifying those can not reply.

If you think your mods are trusty enough bump them up

I disagree with bumping mods up to super. If I allow my mods to ban people, then they should be able to use this. This would be perfect for me if only it allowed standard mods to use it. Shame really, just what I wanted...

Feel free to make the code modifications dealing with the usergroup checking, but Im not changing the default behaviour of this hack, sorry.
