I want certain forums to only allow a certain field. This is for a harry potter forum. I have a field set for each user, entitled"house" and its gryffindor, ravenclaw, etc. How can I make it so the Ravenclaw Dormitory, only allows in those with Ravenclaw in their house field.
Once in the dormitory, there are to subforums, Boys and Girls, so this question, is is there a code, or how can I code an affective thing, that checks wether their male or female, and lets only males enter the male, and females the female. I realize they could surpass this by just changing their sex, but I doubt none of them would really try it.

Its practically impossible to do that. You should do it the original way and sort them into houses your self. For your purposes, group permission masks should work.

Have one for each house, followed by Girl or Boy. That way you can separate them into dormitories, too.

Yes, what chris said would also eliminate the problem of people trying to change their gender.

Thats what I had. Though the Houses, is a field, not a group, as I have Global mods and staff, and they would not have a house if they were staff.

If staff don't have a house, then just make a Staff permission mask, and then give each house it's own mask, IE gryffindor mask for gryffindor forum, and make another one that is female, then repeat for the other houses. Staff could get a teacher thing, as a mask name, and set them to be able to view everything. Might work.
