👥 Moderator Abilities

Moderators have extended rights on all Team Hub posts:

• ✏️ Edit - update post content like titles, descriptions, or media

• 📥 Move to Drafts - unpublish a post

• 🗑 Delete - remove posts that break rules

• 🚫 Close - mark post as closed

• 📢 Publish - make a draft live

• ⏰ Schedule - set future publishing times

🔔 Transparency

Every time a moderator edits a post:

• They must enter a message explaining the action.

• The post owner is notified automatically.

✅ Best Practices

Keep moderation constructive and transparent:

• Always leave clear reasons in edit messages.

• Prefer drafts over deletion where possible.

• Use pinning and highlighting sparingly.
