I have built into version 8.02 that you can edit the setup_options.asp file and disable moderators from being able to edit user profiles.

I am in the middle of moving office at the moment, but things are going quite smoothly, at the moment, so I hope to have 8.02 released later this week or early next week.

Could you please write what files I need to edit  to disable moderators permission to edit profiles? Only member_profile and register?
 
Thank you!

If you do a search you will see I have explained this is full quite a number of times.

The way moderators and their permissions work has been the same now for over 5 years, with over 300,000 downloads, without it ever being an issue before.

The simplest solution is if you want the moderator system to work differently to the standard way is that you will need to modify the code.

You should only ever have 1 forum admin, the built in admin account.

For security reasons it is recommended that you NEVER create any other admin accounts, unless you really have to.

thanks borg
but I think this is better that moderators just can suspent users not editing anything
meanwhile, moderators can easily edit users profiles in Admin Group, ( not main admin ) I think this is a security risk
