I think he broke the forum again, or maybe it was an issue with the warning counter being reset to 0?

Just wanted to bring it to someone's attention, if it was not already known.

*warns Jack 7 times* Problem solved.

I noticed this a while ago, but I think it was after the Warnings were reset...

I wonder why a non mod can see the warnings counter and the user notes though :?

Spacey is one of the .. many .. group leaders of the Respect! usergroup. Probably has to do with that? :)

Or maybe not, in which case I am as stumped as you are.. (unless ex-mods retain some of their 'abilities')

If you look at "The Team" at the bottom of the forum, they are listed on there under the Honours Committee.

I honestly didn't even think of that. I hope that it's not a problem for anyone, or against any existing policies.

It shouldn't be a problem.. :? Not like you can change user notes there, right? Besides, you guys are good people.. and even if you wouldn't be, it doesn't seem like a major security issue?

I do see the quick mod tools in that section, but I have never once been tempted to use them, nor will I. If you or other Respect members need greater assurances Q, perhaps we can make it the subject of an internal conversation for the Respect group?

It has been mentioned that this is a known issue - so thanks. :-)
