Create New Level of Default Permission: Volunteer Mod (cannot edit or delete other mods posts)

A prospective client noticed that mods can delete other mods posts.

This can be problematic if a volunteer mod goes rogue.

Vanilla already knows that you can't flag a mod or admin post. Is there a way to extend that to editing?

    No, we log edits and deletions to maintain the integrity of that system. They might consider a secondary moderator role that simply disallows edits, which can be harder to detect without consulting the logs. Delete-only is a nice compromise here since they can be easily restored.

    This would be possible for something like a VIP service.
