WAKE UP!

This hack was never finished, which makes me very sad. Here's my situation:

Our first few forum solutions all had issues with posts being accidentally removed and did not allow us to recover those messages. Therefore, we decided from the get-go when we made the switch to vBulletin, that we would create a private forum to move all deleted posts and threads. Moderators do not have permission to delete threads or posts and instead must use the move threads or split threads options to move posts or threads into the appropriate private forum.

This works great for us, however adding a moderator to the super moderator group will allow them to delete messages without moving them, which is not something we want to do. We do want to let them ban abusive users, however. Basically, the only usergroup that should be able to remove posts or threads from the database, should be the administrators. Anyone else who uses a "delete" function, should ideally have the post(s) or thread(s) sent to this private forum.

Is there anyone out there who would be interested in creating this hack to work as I described above?

Thanks!
