I seem to be missing something here, but is this true? I've never heard of anyone other moderator or admin having any special privileges on this forum, except for LoyceV with its whitelist. Mate, is there any information I missed?

AFAIK, so far Other board including child boards are moderated well by moderators (maybe global moderators) so I don't think it's a big problem and urgent matter as one of the board moderators is inactive. If all this time the board needed a lot of moderation then I'm sure the idea of ​​a new moderator has been around for a long time, and maybe people have been paying attention to it for a long time.
