What does this ability allow me to do?

This ability allows you to see and handle all types of flags; permanently lock posts; unilaterally close, reopen, delete, or undelete posts; suspend or unsuspend users, as well as further moderator abilities. Moderators also have access to special moderator-specific help pages.

Moderators are signified with a special symbol next to their usernames.

How do I earn this ability?

Moderators are elected by the community, or appointed by the Codidact Team.
