Any mod needs to be able to do only these three things: Remove NSFW images from the non-Lemon forums, remove images that would get this forum and everyone on it jailtime and their name on a sex offender registry, and edit or delete threads or posts by trolls to either get them to cool off or step up their game.
Banning anyone should be Hawks' prerogative. Although temporarily taking away someone's ability to post would be fine, though I'm not sure Invision can do that.
I don't want mods at all. But we need some, or this crazy, fucked up, wonderland we all love and hate might just get shut down by someone looking to 'protect the children'.
