Restricted member able to Quote/Modify/Remove posts

I created a board for members put on hold/account closed - only
visible if they are in a specific member group with 0
permissions. The only thing they should be able to do is a) view
the topic and b) reply to the topic. (they can't see anything
else on the forum at all)
However, on using a 'testing account' assigned to that usergroup
although all other restrictions work, they can quote, modify or
remove posts within the topic, which nobody should be able to do
apart from Admin/Mod accounts.
I've checked and triple checked all the settings.. can anyone
offer advice please?

Go to the users profile Then click on Show Permissions
then review the permissions. you can click on the board name on
that page and see what permissions they have.

Apparently while they are restricted from viewing other boards
etc.,, there are permissions granted under "Given by: Regular
Members, Just joined" on the new board (even though I have it
set to 'use unique permissions').
Is it possible to change this please? (I could use step by step
instructions, if possible)
Edited to say - I've sorted it, by choosing 'default' for the
board instead of 'read only' it reverts to normal restrictions..
Phew! :D
