I also understand what you are saying and know that it is not going to work the same as the forum.
What I am saying is that if it were a
vb permission then it is turned off because in the
vb forums a banned user can not report a post. So that proves that it is not a permission that is inherited into vBG.
With that said. That means it is a permission that I would like to see vBG fix and set up or add a permission to so that this back door can not be used to spam moderators.
I hope my explanation makes sense.
