Alright, so my friends and I decided to start a forum for a clan we run for a game a play. Unfortunately, the person who made the forum no longer wants to be an admin but we can't find how to change him from being the root admin. Can someone please help?

This thread will help http://if.invisionfree.com/topic/5044115/1/#new - Although in theory you posted this in the wrong section ie in Zetaboard Support rather than Invision Support it basically works the same way :)

Are you able to contact the head admin? He will need to give you his account to change who the head admin is.

He should create a new account for himself first if he still wants to use the board.

Thank you all for the advice, and I'm sorry that I posted this in the wrong section.

To change who the head admin is, I read, would be to just change his account into someone elses so that they can be the head admin. Does this mean that all posts made by that person will thusly change into posts by another person then?

Basically the account should stay exactly the same besides the password. But the person behind the account will be whoever that becomes the new head admin.

Remember that this account is unique, permanent, and the owner of the board.
