I see the source of your confusion.

When a forum is created a group with the same name as the forum is automatically created, this group can be used to manage the permissions inside that particular forum. The group is NOT a resource.

Since both carry the same name, understandably that caused you some confusion. I'll look into added some sort of prefix to group names, so that this type of problem can be avoided.

The way that groups work is like this:

Group
->resource(s) can be more then 1
-> normal users
-> all anonymous users
-> all registered users
-> users who have special permission in the group
(specified by name)
-> Group manager
(gets automatically the highest permissions group offers)

Assigment of Group Managers & Resources can ONLY be done via the admin control panel inside adm/ directory.

The forum admin & group manager(s) can then the user control panel to add/remove users from the group as well as change their permissions.

The user control panel for the group can ONLY modify the settings the admin has allowed the group manager(s) to modify via the admin control panel.
