IdeaScale Moderation/Authentication Settings

The following setting is not working properly:

High - Authenticated Users Only
Users MUST be logged into the site to view ideas, comments. New users must be approved by the moderator.

Even with this setting, new users can create accounts, view, post, and have full run of the site without initial approval from the Moderator.

Also, the "Top Contributors" section is shown on the site before logging in with a site under the "High - Authenticated Users Only" setting.

Agreed - this issue is fixed. The "Top Contributors" will still show up on the left nav -- But no other details will be available. If we get more requests for _removing_ the "Top Contributors" section for this authentication level, we'll think about removing that also. For now, it encourages participation and we'll keep it there.

I would think that in an environment where the users are vetted, it is likely to be a closer community (eg. co-workers) and so top contributers would be MORE appropriate as the users may actually know or know-of each other.
