Oh.. I would be willing to make a donation to your site if you can get hitwalker to change his avatar... it gives me nightmares.

She

and that is it exactly.

The block mentioned previously in this post is not in my block list - so as soon as I know what to post I'll get it up.

I have taken down my forums till I get this matter cleared up.

I think what he is trying to say is that if you look at a users profile and do find all posts (like I do with you and chatserv all the time lol) that you can see posts from restricted areas that the user would not normally be able to see.

Are you able to see restricted posts here also?

One thing to check are the permissions for each forum, if you use simple mode and set it to moderators or reg'd users the view access might still be set to all so double check that.

No I cant see restricted posts here. I just amuse myself looking at some of the old posts you two have made. Some are quite funny.

My permissions are set like this

One forums has guest access for if someone is having issues with anything
The other two are view all - read registered

There are a few that were private forums that I am seeing state view private and read all I'm going to switch them to private and see how it goes. Thanks for pointing it out hopefully thats the fix.
