Multiple instances of moderators.
 
All subforums have all mods listed twice.
[Edit: make that all forums and subforums.]

This is because you three are all specifically given forum permissions as mods AND you are global moderators.

This means one of the two settings is overriding the other. I am not sure which but it seems redundant and possibly problematic if you ever want to change the mods permissions.

I respectfully submit that you should remove the individual permissions in all forums and set up the global moderator group settings to achieve the results you need.

It certainly is not a problem now, but could become one later.

That pretty much sums it up, but there is an odd thing about it-

We've been set up that way since the beginning, and it only started listing us twice after I got a system error after banning a user. Hopefully what you suggested will clear it up, but it's still peculiar.

Depends on if you banned from the MCP or the ACP. If you banned from the ACP then beats me. If from the MCP then the ban forced a permissions lookup through the MCP .php code which in turn revalidated forum permissions. It then ADDED the new global moderators and had a hiccup.

It is better in many place but in this feedback forum the multiple instances is getting worse.

Yes, this happened after getting an error in the ACP. I'll see what I can do...

I am not concerned so long as you guys have permissions to do what you need to do. I just always liked to have any info I could when I was troubleshooting my forums.

Thanks. I think it just looks weird and unpleasant.
