[Andrew] Moderator Panel 2.0.9

[Andrew] Moderator Panel provides moderators enhanced visibility into user behavior and additional moderator features. The thought is that by providing better visibility to warnings, reports, thread bans, and ignores, moderators will be able to identify problem users faster and will rely less in impulse when making decisions on users. All features are permission controlled and can be enabled or disabled.

Features:

• User file, similar to a criminal profile, displays key metrics about a user all in one place. The user file can be accessed by either selecting user file from the member card dropdown or by searching for the user in the moderator panel. The follow is displayed within the user file:

  • Notes

  • Current ban

  • Warnings

  • Reports
