I know if I go into user perms or group perms I can set things in there to allow or not some things to a user/group
I have done that
But is there a way to set it so that a brand new registrant when they activate their account and are automatically set to normal user....that I do not have to then go back into the section and select the stuff manually.
The newbies are plopped into normal users but I find that when I go into the area for user settings and manually add them, in that section they are listed as non-members even though they are activated.
I hope that makes sense

Hi @darkangel,
I guess that we have no permissions patterns for new users (good idea for a plugin).
Actually, in your case, there is no need to set user's perms individually. If all your new users will get the same privileges, you just need to set those privileges (including Is member) to a group and assign the users to that group.
The User perms tab is meant to set particular configuration over some users, but in your case, I think that using the Group perms is just enough.
Regards!
