If you have junior moderators, then you can only decide to give 'manage threads' permission or not. This includes all dangerous thread related actions, like merging and deleting threads but also minor actions like open, close, approving, unapprove, stick, unstick, move threads and apply prefixes.

Giving junior mods the ability to manage threads, without being able to merge a whole forum into one thread would be much wanted.

Please consider coding more functionality to define manage threads permissions.

They will only have permissions to manage individual threads/posts.

There are seperate permissions for the Mass-XXX functions.

yes, I am aware of that. But managing threads one by one is not handy on a mature board. My request is to be able to define permissions for the mass thread management functions. i.e. managing threads on forum display.

There are seperate permissions for the Mass-XXX functions.
There is a mass prune function (not very advisable for junior mods) and a mass move function. I know how to turn those on, but have no clue how they manifest.Please explain.

The Mass function are located in the ModCP/AdminCP.

Ah, yes. I recall that now. Completely different to what I am asking for: managing threads inline on forum display.
