[2.0] Global Mod can modify and remove Admin Posts
nimda:
Thanks emanuele,
I have found it :)
K@:
Duplicate post, too...
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=480274.msg3361408#msg3361408
...which had to be removed from the FAQ topic.
Weird, or what?
Elmacik:
I support the idea that it works as intended. But what about this different approach: we always say that "you shouldn't give these permissions to people you don't trust"; OK, so do we ever expect a trusted moderator remove an admin? That's a little bit paradox. :) Because if the global mod is never expected to delete an admin, then why he can?
Kindred:
Elmacik, it's not about removing an admin account.... it's about removing or editing admin POSTS
and setting a flag on a post to say "this is an admin post, only other admins can remove it" seems like a waste of processing.
Arantor:
In any case, even users who have the ability to manage membergroups can't remove an admin account without being an admin themselves.
I can see both sides of the argument, but I think I'm inclined to agree that global moderators should just be able to globally moderate - posts.
