Hi everyone,

I've been talking about this for some time now, but I think it's about time I put it up for vote. As most of you know, the Discussions are known for having some 'troublesome' users from time to time. Alot more when compared to the Forums. While some of time when we're dealing with a spammer, and admin is online, it also happens quite frequently that no admins are online. This, of course, means that Discussions moderators are completely powerless when dealing with a spammer at that time. The only we thing we can do is delete posts, which doesn't really solve anything as the spammer can simply keep posting them. Now, a simple solution in my opinion, would be to give the current Discussions moderators (Lilith and I) blockrights. This way we can solve spamming issues alot quicker when an admin isn't online, and overall keep the Discussions clean. Atvelonis told me that, while he trust us, that could be an issue with future moderators. While I agree with that, I think that's something that should be figured out while the person in question is being promoted, not afterwards.

Tell me what you think, thanks.
