This is pretty cool. Has anyone looked at the information below your avatar? Notice the groups? It sounds like someone has gone permissions crazy.Wink I am thinking that since the groups specifies admin I will actually be able to have five blocks at some point in time. (if I feel like it) Who is Chuck Brown?

Yeah, the groups fucntion is handy for boards with many people and many mods; instead of listing individual mods for each board, you can just specify "Group A" or whatever, and then all members of that group will be given mod powers.

Chuck Brown is our host, and he set up this board for us. Check him out on the web: www.flockhosting.com

Even cooler, I could define a new group (say, Mac lovers) and edit their permissions. I could stick you and BigBird in that group and make it so that your posts have to be okayed by a moderator before they appear on the board. In fact....*goes over to the admin control panel, cackling gleefully*

If you don’t have freedom as a principle, you can never see a reason not to make an exception. There are constantly going to be times when for one reason or another there’s some practical convenience in making an exception.

Muahaha! This is way too much fun!

I think I'll start a group called "The Wicked Spawn of Satan" and throw in anybody who ever disagrees with my on anything at all... so watch your step, you dastardly duck!

Well, doing something like that to a fellow admin is fairly pointless  ;]

It would be nice if you didn't have to know how to use cascading style sheets just to change the colors...I'm a Computer Science major and it took me several minutes to get the hang of it. If you were logged on to the board about this time yesterday, you know what I mean *shudders*

I have to say flock hosting and it is more than decent. Good value.

I think that's CSI, not CSS  [_[

Yeah, flockhosting has been pretty good to us, I must say
