Moderation Powers
I am aware of the regulation that members must be 13 or older before they may become admins or moderators, but may they have moderation powers for a forum category if they are under 13? (Example: if they have a group on our forum and want to moderate the forum which contains their club) In other words, giving them limited moderation powers.

Re: Moderation Powers
Sorry if I'm mistaken here because I didn't memorize the TOS, but I think its allowed to give moderation powers to anyone, I don't know such rules that prohibit this.

Re: Moderation Powers
No, there are no rules prohibiting this.
This DOES apply for this board though.

Re: Moderation Powers
There's stuff with COPPA and such that makes everything iffy, and I read a topic somewhere that said admins and mods had to be 13, so that's why I'm making sure.

That's for admins though. I take it then, that regulations differ for moderators. I thought I found another topic, but I must be mistaken.

What Nessa said:
I think that's only for the admins but for mods, I think they're allowed. I don't see anything prohibiting them from the TOS.
You must be 13 yrs old or older to be admin of a forum, Any younger and it is a violation of Forumotions TOS. Such members can be reported to Forumotion and their forums removed.
