Users Keep on Getting Personal Groups!

How do you stop users from getting their personal groups?

What exactly do you mean?

Every time a new user registrates, the new user gets a personal group, like this guy named disconett got a group named 'disconett'. I want that to stop, because I don't like it.

Hello,
I think I know your problem...

You should set your forum's permissions.

First, go to the group that was automatically created for the member, and view it's permissions.

ACP=>U. & G. Tab=>Groups=>Group Administration

---

Then, when you find out the permissions that is given to your members, go to the forum and edit it's permissions.

ACP=>General Tab=>Forum=>Categories and forums=>Choose Forum

Modify it's permissions so that members can not do whatever is creating the groups automatically. {Mostly mod access}

No, I mean that I think there's an option that allows users to automatically get a group with their username. I want to take that off.

This happened with my forum too, theres no way around it, ive looked everywhere and tried everything.

Ok, thanks.

ok there is a way round this go to your admin page then go to the users that have the groups and remove them all then save this should stop them if it dont then im Sorry but there is no other way ...if you need more help on how to do this let me know

~APE~

I think it stopped! A new member registered today, and it didn't get a new personal group!
