Not necessarily - there is the a very granular rights system in play -
not everyone with the moderator colors on their user name have the same
access levels. Hagar has a higher level then most, if not all, of the
other moderators for instance.
they can kick real people off the boards if they do not
like their behavior. So it is a position of authority. A Moderator is
an important role with real influence. They, through their decisions,
help set the tone of the forum and represent the "public face" of
Apache OpenOffice.
So, it is very easy to setup a system where a 'standard' moderator can
do x but not y - in this case can not actually ban a user - they see
spam, they remove it, which automatically makes the post visible to
admins and the admin's can handle the actual banning, if so warranted.
This is good to know. That essentially creates super-moderators and
normal moderators. Is there anything else like this? I mean is there
a short list of permission sets like this, or is it really an eclectic
mix of permissions that have been assigned to individuals over time
and few moderators actually have the same identical permissions?
no - normally this is all done at the group level - I gave you the one
exception I know off (understand my memory can be faulty at times) -
again when I say something is possible it is a mistake to believe this
means it is being widely used, it only means that it is possible.

I've more rights than the other moderators in the forum because I'm also part
of the admin group in fact.
I guess that we can set the rights for single users but it's not the policy
(too much work too).
