I have a rather large site that i moderate (A Guildwars Site) with 800+ active members. I want to add a group and populate this group with certain people. I want the group to have the permissions to delete members accounts but only as far as place them in limbo and from specific groups (i need protected gropus like admins etc). By that i mean i want to authorise them for permanent deletion later.

If i give them deletion permissions as it is and 1 goes rogue on me he / she could remove all members.

Is this possible without using the Global Moderators Mod?

Does anyone on this site know how this can be achieved?

Thanks

how about making a membergroup called About To Be Deleted.. with no access

then allow your new moderator group to move members to this group and you as a admin can delete the members later on..

just a thought dont know if it will work for u

:)  OK....  I just happened to read this thread, and I am impressed with Tanks method.  Otherwise, there would be some major programming that would lead to the same result.....

good one Tanks!

I have thought of doing this but i then have a problem. I dont see a way to allow a certain member group to moderate another group. If i give them permissions to add members to groups without deletion permission, they can simply add themselves to another "Global Mod Group" and do it that way, or am i missing something?

Yes you're right. I cannot help on that because i'm not a programmer, but if i'm not wrong i saw something like that already posted in the foruns.

Try do a search, maybe your lucky.

yes im afraid your right. I guess you need to find some mods that you can truely trust.. when it comes to membergroups and deletion of members i only trust myself.. mods can do other thing..

Sorry if my idea didnt help much

I have looked at this, however it states ir is not compatible with my version 1.1.3 :(

spottedhog

it should work with 1.1.3. 

1.1.3 changes did nothing to what this Mod affects.
