Nukemods Forum - View Single Post - Excludeing forums from the "Recent Posts" Hack

Well the recent posts hack does only show the forums that the user has access to.

Rather than just a simple disclaimer maybe it would be better to make the 18+ forum a private access forum with a special 18+ usergroup, then put the disclaimer on the user group something that says by subscribing to this usergroup you hereby decree that you are 18 years or older blah blah blah. Then when they hit accept they will be subscribed to that usergroup and those message would show in the recent posts block only to those users that have subscribed and therefore sworn to be over the legal age of consent.

Just an idea, would be easier that writing code to exclude a forum I would think.
