2 important forum changes

May members request to be dropped from the conversation users group?

Intresting question. Yes, this should be possible, though I wil have to figure out how to keep the scheduler from just adding said person to the classifieds user group again. I'll look into that to see what can be done.

Of course I am still a big believer in 'Just say no'. I.e. noone makes you click the conversation forum, so don't complain that you -can- visit it.

EDIT: I just had a look, and I could either fudge it (abuse the old rep system) or create a new usergroup that is just like the regular users, but without conversation permissions. It's a bit of a bother, because I'll have to add additional permission settings to the forums that are off-limits for users (mod place and such).

It's not impossible, but there would have to be a sizable group of people before I'd consider implementing it. I can't imagine that there are many people who would not want to visit the conversation yet are really hindered by its existence.
