Question about Moderator permissions
Is it possible to configure moderator permissions such that they can't see IP addresses on posts in the forums they moderate?

Wasn't "moderate forum" originally just the same as global moderator?

Nope, never been.
Moderate forum has always included such things.

I was more leaning toward the question: are you sure the members need to have "moderate forum" permission? Or maybe they may just be happy belonging to the global mod group?
Re: naming: indeed. xD

Ok. Are you saying that in Elk, Global Mod doesn't allow viewing IP's in posts anyway? Because from back when I ran an SMF site, the global mods could see IP's in posts.
ETA: Hmm. I should test that on SMF on local. My memory may be playing tricks on me.

From what I can see, no. The "Moderate forum members" (name of moderate_forum) permission is not on by default (it's not in the install code so it should not be on).

Y'know a good buglet fix would be to call it something else.

So I betcha Oblivion did the same thing for the same reason, and then found that global mods could see IP's.
(IOW, the naming is stoopid)
