As a result of recent unpleasantness and such I wondered what powers exactly do the holders of such positions hold?
I personally have never been a Mod here or elsewhere so have no knowledge of such matters, however I'm sure I'm not alone in wondering..
I'd be grateful if Beast or Admin could could shed some light on this, I know Mole has made allegation of wrongdoings and maybe this could be laid to rest by the simple sharing of this information so we can move forward!
I'm sure other members have similar questions and I believe a small amount of reassurance goes a long way!
Many thanks!
P.S... Welcome back Admin!

Admin / Moderator Powers: Clarification?
"When you men get home and face an anti-war protester, look him in the eyes and shake his hand. Then, wink at his girlfriend, because she knows she's dating a pussy."
I'm glad such a question has been raised and only too happy to answer.

Admin,
Thanks for the post/explanation/clarification. Much appreciated.
Up until now I thought some Mods had a huge range of powers, light saber, x-ray vision, invisibility cloak, water into wine etc.
It's a bit of a let down when you realise they're not much different from the rest of us. A bit like realising David Copperfield isn't really magic!

RC this is how others spread rumours, as previously said the Moderators only have the powers as listed above.
If only someone asked me directly and i could of provided any information straight from the horses mouth instead of others listening to some jumped up whipper snapper!
Glad you managed to find your PM's, they were always on our system and never disappeared, everything on our database is logged and date stamped which tells us if modification was carried out by the member, admin or system software. And the system told us no modification had been carried out since members last interaction!
