How to prevent ordinary users from creating groups? Or ban groups altogether from being created? Thanks for the help!

The only way to do it right now is to deploy a plugin:

Listen for {sub topic=new} messages and reject them.

I think it is also possible to directly modify the func initTopicNewGrp(t *Topic, sreg *ClientComMessage, isChan bool) error function:

if authLevel != auth.LevelRoot { return types.ErrPermissionDenied }

I added the following code so that only ROOT users can create groups, which seems to solve the problem, haha.
