MOD REQ: User = Thread Admin

Sounds interesting, but I don't see how I would be able to use it.

In what situation would you use this for?

That's an interesting way of doing it.  I can see that in some forums, it could easily get abused.  People could start censoring competing ideas.  I wouldn't implement this site wide, but perhaps implement it in forums where people post events or announcements or ads (where the content is about them or their company or organization).  If you do this mod, I would make it so that it could be turned on and off per forum area.

This would allow the user to make posts invisible to other users, but not delete them, that way any issues can be reviewed by the System Admin.   Basically, the MOD would need the following functions:   User would admin any threads they START ThreadAdmin would make posts they don't want in their thread "invisible" ThreadAdmin could turn back on invisible posts if they want ThreadAdmin could make it possible so that ThreadAdmin could see "invisible" posts. System Admin sees all posts, or can choose to keep invisible posts unseen until there is an issue that needs to be addressed. (usually someone would send an email to the admin if such a need appears)   I think that would do it. I know that someone else was interested, and may have actually started the MOD, but I haven't heard back yet.   Cheers
