Admin is my boss
Im just a worker

Did that explain it good? :P

Anyway; A admin is for the whole forum. He can change everything. While a mod is just only for some sections. Global mod can moderate on each forum, while a section mod can only mod at the section he is put on :)

Administrators have more authorities than moderators.
Admins are the managers and mods are the helpers :O

admin has more rights.

admins can bann, while moderators cant.

admins can delete and make forum sections, while moderators can't.

^^ Global Moderators can ban as well *waves banstick*

admin can change the forum. they can change sigs.

globals can warn, ban, lock/etc in all parts of the forum. we just cant change the forum, change sigs/profiles

the section mods just have power over their assigned part of the forum. they cant ban or warn


:)



we can warn, when given permission. We just can't ban :)

Administrators have access to the ACP which can control the everyday functions of the forums.

Moderators in phpbb3 get a moderators control panel, which is much crappier in comparison to the ACP but they can delete an entire forum in a few clicks if they have the rights permissions.

Yes there are definitely more options in the ACP than in the MCP. I also assume, if SRF is like other forums, that global/section mods do not have any control over the layout of the forums or the website itself. They can't change HTML and/or CSS code, whereas admins can.

Admins also have control over user/group permissions whereas I believe global/section mods do not.
