Discretion is the key term for moderators.

Mature language isn't a problem since the board I regulate allows it (screw censorship), gimmick posters are smacked down (won't tolerate that crap), disrespect towards staff members is something I don't give a damn about (respect is earned, mind you, not warranted because he registered before you).

Bottom line: "LAFFO Interweb."

Co-admins, super-mods, & mods can basically do whatever they want (same as any user), they just can't ban a user for backtalking or posting an opinoin and on the same note they can't delet posts with the material mentioned above. Mods and Co-admins are normal users they must follow the rules and enforce them. The only user with a ensured postition on the site is the head admin. I also have a moderator's checks and balances forum:
Quote:
Moderator "Checks and Balances"

Prior to deleting a post/thread, a moderator must first check with another moderator for verification. Assuming both agree, the post is deleted permanently without delay or explanation.

If both moderators do not agree on the need to delete, the post/thread is moved to the private moderator garbage forum for further review.

If the post/thread contains blatent violations of Amerimoto.com posting policies, such as nudity or profanity the forum moderator can delete it without checking with another moderator.

good guideline, we have one similar on junkies, everything is to be discussed in the staff forum before a decision is made unless, like you said, it's something that there is no doubt about.
