    Hi,

    For some strange reason, all of the private forums I had access to pre-adminship (as in, when I was SMod) have disappeared and I cannot access them. All except Spell Czechs. I've no idea what's going on. It doesn't make much sense to me.

    Well, ask yourself, you removed your admin privileges! :D

    Can you send me the urls of the forums you should have access to via PM and I'll see what happened? You see the forums in your subbed list right?

    I just set my usergroup to Registered User. I don't know why it screwed with some of my access masks and not others.

    That bug that got fixed to stop subbed forums showing when you don't have access to them means I can't see them, no. I can look after that side of things myself, though. I think I know the mods for the ones I'm missing.

    This is really just by way of information, in case it happens to anyone else. I wonder if it happened to seamus etc.? Maybe it's because I actually totally removed myself from Admin/Mod usergroups?

    That's strange Hulla. It shouldn't have wiped out any explicit access you had to forums. And what's more, I can see a list of forums that you have explicit access to in your user history so you should be able to get into them.

    Might be easiest if I PM you the addresses and you can confirm whether you can get in or not and whether those should be all. At that point, I can wipe and polish if necessary or flick it along the food chain.

    edit: I've sent that PM. Get back to me at your leisure.
