Can the rights of a moderator be selectively enabled/disabled?

Are there already such templates?

For example, a moderator who could screen questions, but not answers?

Hi there, no this feature is not included and not planned I think one level is sufficient. For example SO has only one level and very few moderators. You should not discount "mental controls", they actually work quite well :).

Btw, increase karma gradually opens the moderation rights of regular users and the individual barriers are tunable in the "settings". Settings are available only to site admins, moderators cannot access them.

I understand. I have some small suggestions:

Interesting. The auto-scroll to that html anchor in my link in my above comment worked in google chromium, but not in firefox. I'm using Ubuntu Linux 10.04 64-bit build. ccanonc ( 2010-09-20 20:31:55 -0500 )edit
The auto-scroll also works in Opera. Maybe it's a Firefox bug. ccanonc ( 2010-09-20 20:35:17 -0500 )edit
