    First up I hope the subscribing tag is correct on this issue.

    To cut a long story short, hosted forum was created by the tech staff of Boards and for a small while (about 4 hours) it wasn't set to private. Because me and a few others know the person who requested we had a small bit of fun starting random threads etc. During this time I followed the forum. Then when the error was spotted we were blocked from accessing the forum and it went properly private.

    The problem is that the forum is still listed in the "My Forums" tab on the top of Beta, and although I can't see anything about the forum, or have access to it, I can't unfollow it either.

    Any suggestions to how I can get it out of that list?

    That should do it for you.

    But you should have the unfollow this forum option in your User CP too.

    It was never in my UserCP strangely enough. That link seems to have done the trick though. Thanks Spear. Mark this one as Reaolved. :)

    Yeah, I don't think you can see a forum in your userCp if you've lost access to it, hence the difficulty in unsubscribing, its a common occurrence. I think the reasoning is that if you are subscribed and see it in your CP, you can see details about the latest posts, the thread titles etc. So it's kinda a social security reason behind hiding it I think.
