mods?

[-Nick]

What's the point of having super mods and mods now? Merge the roles and make Matt assistant fm. The mods are currently moderating all the forums?

Because SMODs have access to further panels which moderators don't, which are only trusted to a select few (aka, the smods).

If there are adminy type things then fair enough have some sort of ranking in powers but yeah lots of people have been saying recently that all mods should be gmods and I agree with that, it doesn't make any sense to have moderators who are powerless to stop someone from acting out just because they're doing so in an area about books or whatever

I'm not afraid of giving them anything because I have no power to give them anything at all, I was just explaining the difference to Nick.

Pretty much what Laura said, Super Moderators have the ability to change signatures/avatars/profile pictures, issue bans for multiple accounts etc. see reported posts and although Matt could do that as Assistant Forum Moderator, I'm not sure if General Management would agree as the department isn't as big as it usually is! The Super Moderator acts as second in command to the Forum Manager, and again that can be done even as the assistant, but it might not be needed currently.

We are moderating all forums currently as feedback suggested to see how it goes! At least if this continues it might be easier to pick a Super Moderator with them being more knowledgeable over the whole forum and not just 1-3 forums we may moderate.

if matt is mdport i wouldn't give him afm tbh. no offence to the guy but he's weak, he threatened me with an infraction and didn't follow through. what use is he as an admin if he can't do that?

Phil is FM and he reports to Chris. Me and Kelly have less access to the forum panels than SMODs (aka none) so why should mods get them too? but no I honestly don't know the answer to your question, it's for someone else to answer.
