I tell you what happened exactly

one of my good adminstrators wanted to remove one moderator from one of the forums but he wanted to keep that moderator as a moderator

ok so he went to Forums and Moderators

then he clicked on Modify

he choose the forum

and he clicked on edit on that moderator

then from the Forum Parent he choose No one

and after this move that moderator was added to all forums on the main page only i mean the main forum display

but when i go to the control panel and then to modify the forums it dose not show there

I tried to remove that moderator from the moderator staff

the name kept beeing on every forum

I Re added that moderator to the old forum ....the name kept beeing on all forums except this time it was added twice on the old forum

I deleted that moderator complete the name still the name is there

I dont know I tried everything updating the forum info updating the counts nothing worked to remove that name from all of the forums

I hope somebody can tell me whats happening

I'm using vb2.0.0

You will have to delete this moderator's record directly from the database table. The record is in the table moderator.

However the fact that the moderator got listed on every forum is how the system should work. "No One" is forumid -1 and the parent of every single forum. Forums inherit moderators from their parent.

You should make the user a supermoderator if you want them to moderate all forums but not be listed.

I've now added some code to display these moderators if they do get created.
