I was hoping a few questions about this mod could be answered.
I would like to use this mod to moderate my forums more effectively. If I have for example 5 sections, can I make a group for each section and have people auto join those groups upon registration? The reason I ask is because i wish to have all forums accessed by groups. If a moderator wishes to have some one not able to post in their section, I can remove them from the group effectively banning them from that section. is this possible?
Assuming a user is removed from a group, would they be able to rejoin the group they were automatically added to if the group is set as a "closed" group or not?
If a user is added to a group automatically, are they able to alter the group settings in any way? I ask because at phpBB.com, some people seemed to mention a problem like this.
Does the mod make use of emailer.php at all and if so, how?
If I remove some one from a group will it automatically add hem back to that group or not?
Is the following correction included in the most recent version of this mod?

Are there known errors with this mod in relation to other mods or simply due to poorly written code or not? Are there any common errors in relation to this mod being installed on phpBB forums.
The reason I have so many questions is because at phpbb.com the thread dedicated to this mod is a full 10 pages of people complaining about errors. I would really like to install this mod as it presents a great opportunity for a particular type of forum moderation that moderators at my forum would very much appreciate but I am very very wary of this mod because of the response it has gotten at phpbb.com. Any help here?
Cheers
