        I don't understand what you wrote.

        Check the overall Usergroup permissions:

        Admin CP -> Usergroups -> Usergroup Manager -> Edit Usergroup

        And the Forum permissions for each forum and Usergroup:

        Admin CP -> Forums & Moderators -> Forum Permissions

        Main Usergroup Permissions take precedence unless you override them with specific Forum/Usergroup permissions.

        When multiple usergroups are involved, a 'Yes' permission always overides a 'No' permission if 'Allow Users to have Member Groups ' is set to 'Yes' for the Primary group. Same goes for a larger quota.

        Note, the primary group must have 'Allow Users to have Member Groups' to 'Yes'. Otherwise the secondary settings are not applicable.
