    I'm going to change the trophies around so they're more tongue-in-cheek rather than default Gold Star You're Speshul variety, something like Fresh Meat (new members), Probably a Dual (50 posts), N00b (500), Less Wet Behind the Ears (1000), Probably a Spammer (2500), Survived the Repwar (there is no repwar) (5000), Veteran Member (10000), 20,000 Leagues Under the Spam (20000).

    After an initial glance through the User Groups, I'm not seeing where to find who's in each group. The last thing I'd want is a bunch of duplicated groups because I have no easy way of telling who's in what group already. For example, if I were to create an Atheist group and added the appropriate member in it and suddenly Diacanu found Jebus and joined Fred Phelps' fold, I should be able to go to the appropriate groups, click on his name, yank him out of the Godless Heathen collective and dump him in the Fundamentalist Wackjob group. If any of you know how to get there, it'll make sorting groups much easier.

    Under "Search Users," you can filter your search criteria, including user groups.

    Ok, found it. It's a bit clunky, imo.
    Ideally, I should be able to edit members of a group from the edit group permissions page.

    Yeah, the software's a bit clunky in places, but overall it seems to be working fairly well, at least on the user end. Modifying templates and styles is a pain in the ass, though. With Zeta (a version of IPB), I could see everything at a glance, and modify it without destroying anything. Of course, I used Zeta's software for about 5 years, so it's second nature now. I'm sure with some time, we'll get used to XenForo's system. The only annoying thing with XenForo, in my opinion, is that you can't fully access their help forums unless you're a registered, licensed customer. That's stingy as all fuck. What am I going to do as a non-customer? Steal some Xen specific code and sell it to the highest bidder when it's given away for free right there on the site? :eyebrow:

    Still, it's good software.
