atm users have moderator powers only inside of the folders and posts that they have created themselves.
i felt that since they have the power of erasing their own posts anyways why not let them moderate them too.
this allows any user to come and instead of creating a simple post, creating a folder with many subfolders/posts, appoint mods inside and manage it literally like his own forum inside of your forum. so that you can someday have "societies within societies".
their moderator powers do not extend outside of their own creations.
someone with moderator power outside of this folder will be moderator of these moderators..
if you give someone mod power on the root of the forum this will give this person moderator power over the entire forum
----------------------
i know thats kind of a crazy system, different from the traditional 1-level mod system. but the nodesforum has been conceived like that, hence the name nodesforum.
though maybe it could be possible in the future to have an option in the config to change this behavior so that posters do not have moderator powers over their own creations. but i kind of feel that this will deprive them from the possibility of starting their own subforums inside of your forum, which is kind of the idea.
or maybe another idea i had was to make it so that users have mod powers on the folders that they create but not the posts. but i felt that would influence posters to post their posts into a dummy folder just to have mod power on it. so i felt it was better to give same management power if you post a post or a folder to make sure that ppl only use a folder when they really wanna group things togheter.
anyways, let me know what you think
