    This is a private forum, as requested by Heli. Regular users will not have access to it (they won't even know it's here). I've granted access to the Madden mods. Please use modutils for this forum (Manage Access List) to grant access to any additional users you want to allow in here.

    Any questions, just shout. :)

    Hey guys,

    Just dropping in to reply. I was made a mod of the forum when it was setup originally just to oversee the lads and give them a hand if needed early on as im a mod over on the FIFA/PES forum. Of course as expected there wasnt a bother on them so I havent had any real input. Feel free to remove me as a mod from the Madden forum if you wish or feel you need someone else as a mod who is involved or might be of use. Im active enough on the other forums I mod on but I dont play madden so there might be someone more suitable if needs be.

    Cheers

    Axwell

    Just wondering why I seem to have permission to post in here?

    Should only have "Special Powers" for Sports Forums

    Spotted this one in "New Forums" within the "Boards.ie" tab at the top of the page and clicked on it out of curiosity (as I'd never seen a Forum Request for it) then saw it was supposed to be private - it's the only Private forum I have access to outside the Sports forums - may be worth checking whether anyone has given me access via modutils, but I would have expected to receive a PM if that was the case

    Cheers for the spot beasty, I had the non mod members try to access it before I granted them access so general uses can't get in without permissions

    I'm sure you would have had more "intruders" commenting if they had access. It does look as if something has gone wrong with the permissions though - I'll see if one of the other regular (cycling) mods can access it


  • Administrators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 76,138 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭Beasty


    The other guys can't access it, so it looks like either all CMods have been given acecss or it's specific to me for some reason (would have thought it would show up in modutils though)

    Anyway it looks like there's no harm being done, and if Mr E comes alomng he can escort me off the premises if required ...

    You rang? :)

    When we set up Private forums, we deny access to all, then reset access for specific groups of people (Admins, Boards Employees, etc.) - looks like I reset the permissions for CMods too.

    I will block CMod access tomorrow morning. Beasty, the mods here can grant you access via modutils if you want to hang around. You have about 22 hours to decide. :)

    Beast we will let you in, but only if you join the league :D

    Keep me out of it - I spend far too much time on the site as it is - just wanted to highlight the apparent anomaly
