Hi all

I have some forums which are restricted to people with a manually upgraded (not a ladder membership) membership account. I trust my mods to do these upgrades (changing the membership group) responsibly, however at the moment they don't have the abality. I would assume this is because otherwise mods could effectively upgrade themselves to the admin group.

However I was wondering if there was a way to enable such a moderator feature, either within the current software or by modding? Obviously though, it would have to be that no mod was able to upgrade themselves to admin status.

I appreciate any help.
