More Moderator Privileges needed

I would like to request a modification in which the admin can give the moderators privileges to edit other user profiles just in case a user happens to have offensive content on his profile, or when the user has a ridiculously huge sig or avatar. Thanks.

Moderatos can edit ppl's profile? isn't that kinda scary?
if you trust the guy enough, maybe its good to make him an admin...

Yes but the problem is that the admin is not always online on the forums, and being a moderator on one of the forums, the admin would like to give me a privilege to edit people's avatar or signature whenever a user has an inappropriate avatar or sig pic. I'm not asking for the admin to grant full permissions to moderators to edit people's profiles but rather give moderators permissions to edit people's avatar and signature settings as well as personal text and nickname whenever necessary.

it can be done, but it will be harder to do for moderators, since a moderator doesn't belong to any membergroup
it will be easier to do for global moderators
you'll need to edit Profile.php and search for all of the permissions for Administrator and add Global Moderator too

I should have been more specific. I meant Global Moderators, in which I am one.

like I said before, if you know some php, you can edit Profile.php and added some Global Mods permissions there to change members profile

but if you want to hide other information besides the member's avatar and signature, it will be a bit harder to do
