Hey guys,

I'm currently setting up a website for a warcraft guild i'm in and have a question.
You see although im setting this up i am not a ingame officer and i'd prefer to exclude myself from the officer board on the forums.

Is there a way to stop me as an admin to enter atleast 1 board?

actually, yes and no...

You can add yourself as an admin for a SECONDARY group (additional group in the profile)

that way, you won't get DISPLAYED as an admin.

alternatively, you can create another group with "all permissions" or based-on administrator group.
Then either put the others into that group, or put yourself into that group and use a different badge.

@Kindred: that won't actually solve the OP's problem which is to exclude himself from a given board. Admins explicitly have access everywhere and there's no way to solve that without nasty changes.

See... if you have admin rights or the ability to manage boards, you'll be able to access it.

Kindred

true...   I read quickly and I thought he just didn't want himself displayed as an admin on those boards.
