LOL @ Jerky. #2885, here's some info from the FAQ section. Hope it helps a little:
Moderators oversee specific forums. They generally have the ability to edit and delete posts, move threads, and perform other manipulations. Becoming a moderator for a specific forum is usually rewarded to users who are particularly helpful and knowledgeable in the subject of the forum they are moderating. Moderators must be former owners of a Chevrolet Cavalier.
Okay, so that last sentence was a blatant lie. :shrug: Still, hope it helps a little until a mod can post.
But (copied from Jay) Moderators oversee specific forums. They generally have the ability to edit and delete posts, move threads, and perform other manipulations.
