I have a silly rank Rep: 49 Joined: 03 Nov 2003 Posts: 1,318 | What I will do today is implement a new moderator system were moderators can be set to moderate only specific forums or even specific topics.
The current moderators will will become 'Admins', able to moderate as now, but also able to designate moderators for specific topics/forums (from among normal users).
Over the next few weeks I will create a reputation system. ---

OWNED BY SA-X Rep: 64Joined: 24 Apr 2007 Posts: 13,669 OFFLINE | Here’s a problem I see from Admins being able to make members mods.
What if someone promotes a member to a mod that not everyone agrees with?
Are the Admins going to be able to demote them again? ---

Admins should only use it sparringly and when necessary. I’ll send a PM around to all admins when it’s all ready.

Yes. And a given admin can demote someone that another admin promoted.

Yes. And a given admin can demote someone that another admin promoted.
What about abilities of the promoted members? Will they have all the powers current mods have? I think it might be kinda cool if the mods could choose from a couple different levels?
Maybe.. One just for editing and moving posts/topics and a second level that features the full range of current mod powers?

No that’s only if you want to change it.

It says my password is incorrect if I try to change anything in my Account. So I have to renter it, then it will work. | |

Damn one more with problems. I guess I’ll have to give the change password function back it’s own form again then. I think the issues are caused by some browsers, wrongfully, filling one of the password fields in

Addict (beyond 1337) Rep: 69Joined: 22 Aug 2006 Posts: 32,780 OFFLINE | No, it’s fine. I just have to retype my password. Just put a message or a notification of some kind. Like... “If your changes are not being accepted, please go back and enter your password at the bottom."
Just to save you time. 
Keep up the good work, Bjarne. We all appreciate everything you do. | |

Direct me to the post that you are trying to edit.
And are you sure that mods should be able to moderate eachothers posts?

I have a silly rank Rep: 49Joined: 03 Nov 2003 Posts: 1,318 | Green_Ninja, in fact I just made a slight adjustment. Admins can now (again?) edit a post by a regular user that has already been edited by an admin...
Please report how it goes... ---
