I would like to allow users browsing my site to view event entries but not add them.
So I made sure Anonymous has 'R' rights in the Event Block.
Problem is, when I go to the site I can enter a new event (granted, for submission).
Last thing I want as an Admin is to have to remove a bunch of bogus events.

Why is Anonymous with 'R' rights allowed to enter an event?

Hello mr_skot,
The problem is actually not with the block permissions.
The easiest way to solve this would be to open your config.php, and find this:
// Submission Settings
// enable (set to 1) or disable (set to 0) submission queues:
$_CONF['storysubmission'] = 1;
$_CONF['linksubmission'] = 1;
$_CONF['eventsubmission'] = 1;
$_CONF['usersubmission'] = 0;
Make sure that it reads " $_CONF['eventsubmission'] = 1; ", and that will let you view each event submitted before they go " live " on the site.
I am sure there is a way to completely stop anonymous event submissions that I could not think of, or did not come across while finding your solution, as Geeklog is a very flexible CMS
hope this helps,
Kelly

Thanks Kelly-
I did find that in the config.php file and changed it. It just bugs me that if there are (R)ead only right they shouldn't be allowed to submit an event for review.
Appreciate the help.
Maybe this can get changed in G2?
