    Solved Are global mods also the same as Administrators?

    Post by lalalamda22 March 18th 2011, 3:54 am

    I want to know what the difference is between global mods and administrators and mods and global mods. I know that with global mods and mods global mods mod 'everything', but I have no idea what that exactly means. I just saw that on a topic, and I want a more specific answer. Second, if they really do moderate 'everything', then aren't they just administrators? What is the difference? Does this mean global mods can access the ACP?

    Main Difference:

    Administrators can only access the Administration Panel.

    Global Moderators do not have permission to go there.

    Umm... that still doesn't help. I need a list of things global mods do and a list of things admins do and a list of things mods do, and which ranks overpower each other.

    Admins are totally different, as they get admin access. [Thats universal for all]

    About Mods & G Mods, its upto you how you fix their responsibilities.

    Generally a G Mod, gets moderation access to more parts than the moderator.

    SO you decide, how much access you want to give.

    Well, I will take it as an excuse to make a rank higher than moderators, but lower than admins, which I needed an excuse for. Thanks for the help. Finally, another excuse to make another rank above mods. I don't think I could move up the site owner rank on my forums any more. Otherwise it would be ultimate site owner, site owner, administrator, moderator, and support user. That would be confusing.
