A Moderator is the moderator of the forums that they are assigned to, whereas a Global Moderator can perform a moderator's duties in any forum. 

For instance, Osu and Lutra can perform moderator's duties in all the sub-forums under "Redwall Discussion", but not in the sub-forums under "General Boards", where Redwall Musician and Lily are the moderators.  But Matthias720 and Taggerung_of_Redwall can perform moderator's duties in any of the forums,and maybe more besides. 


I can speak for the duties of an Administrator, but they do have some other abilities besides moderator's duties.  I think they're the only ones who can make someone a moderator by adding them to the "Moderators" group, but beyond that I don't know.

Close....Osu and I can actually perform minimal mod duties on other sections (e.g. Cavern Hole) even though we are not full moderators of that section of the forum.  This is in case by chance something wrong goes on and the wrong mod is online to deal with the issue...now all mods have at least some sort of basic authority on the entire board.

An administrator has abilities that a global moderator does not. Global moderators moderate every board. Board moderators are only in charge of certain boards.

Pretty close. Admins have authority over the entire forum and its setting, Global Mods moderate the entire forum, and Moderators moderate only on certain boards. There can also be Local Mods who can be assigned to one or two boards, and are very much like Moderators, but on a smaller scale.

1135 people have registered.  There's a counter at the bottom of the index page of the forum that tells you how many have registered.  =)

How come when you're modifying your signature, then there aren't little gray buttons for emoticons, boldface, italics, underlining, colors, or stuff like that?

I was wondering why duplicate topics don't get deleted.

You can send that person a PM. Go under his/her profile and go to the bottom where it says "Send this member a personal message."
