How do I remove a user?

Look at server <gmod root>/data/Ulib/users.txt and remove the block that will look like this:
"(friend's name)"
{
(data in here, multiple lines)
}



You may also have them in server <gmod root>/settings/users.txt if you followed ULX readme.txt


leave your addons/ulib/data/*.txt files alone.

Well i like things that stay grouped, so i know where things are. My users.txt and groups.txt are in the addons/ulib/data/ULib folder, and it works just fine. In fact i dont have any ulx/ulib/whatever files into garrysmod/data, only log files (i also did uteam as an addon).

Also in garrysmod/settings/users.txt we have only 2 steamids, for superadmins, and we don't have any problems - yet - with moderators or others groups.

If you have added users using "ulx adduser" then yes you DO have a <gmod root>/data/ULib/users.txt file, and yes it DOES contain your users. GMod will not allow addons to write to their own local data directory, and will only read from it if the files are not first found in the root data directory. I'm assuming you added your users using "ulx adduser" of course, because had you added them to the file manually then you would most definitally know how to remove them as well.

Well we add them manually, because when using ulx adduser it adds correctly but doesn't remove it from the old group, so there is like a duplication and i'm affraid it will corrupt/conflict something lol. Is it a bug or i do something wrong ?
