Ok, heres how it went! I got admins, i could trust, and one backfires, and delets my account, from MY own BOARD! I got my account bak etc, but is there a mod where NO ADMIN CAN DELETE THE 1st person, or the amin admin, or what ever you want to call it???

f there is not, it would be good!

Just make your admins global moderator then, or simply ban them.  ;)

Well my topic can be linked with the 'To modify profile ?' topic and the last post made one it.
QuoteI think the idea behind this is that a global moderator hasn't enough functions, and a administrator has to much. My idea is to create a new administrator account and allow the headadministrator to choose the functions this administrator will have. I like this idea.
If you had a head admin, then admins, the admins can't delete the head admins account! That would be good right?

Well if you made them admins, it means you trust them. If they are fooling around with accounts and deleting them. Then they shouldn't be admins.

That wouldn't be too hard for anyone to add to the code.  Say, if you don't want your name to be deleted, just add a couple of lines to the "delete user" function.  Whatever the actual name of the function is and what file it's in.
You could add:  if ($username=neoboffins)
                  and a statement to return to the previous page or an echo an error message.
Or, reference the UID for that particular user.
