Rob,

You are right on the last issue, I did some checks yesterday. It's not difficult however, to add some functionality over vB's standard permissions. For example, in my Advanced Warning Hack, I use an hierarchical warning schema, where the admins can warn everyone, the Super mods can warn mods and simple users and the mods can warn only simple users.

Actually, I had modified your code yesterday, enough to have it working like this, a simple mod couldn't delete an admin's thread or post etc. Then I screwed up something and had to remove the code from the forumdisplay and threadbits, but it still works in the postbit part. If you want, I can work with you on that, later today, it requires a couple of modifications in the forumdisplay query that gets the threads and then some conditionals in the forumdisplay, threadbit and threadbit_deleted templates.

I plan to do them for my system today, since the twins will be at their grandmother (peace of mind), so if you want, they are all yours.
