I will say the same thing I say about 380 pound women wearing strapless tops or hooking up with a guy who has dated 20 people within your immediate radius.
"Just because you can, doesn't mean you should."
Supermods can close and/or move any thread in any forum; however, if it is a forum THAT ALREADY HAS A MODERATOR it is exceptionally rude to do so. The supermods only have superior technical abilities. Their "super" status does not mean they have been found to be people who make better decisions than the other mods, or that they know more about Greek life than the other mods. We (mods we) all have different interpretations of the TOS, as well as know what is and is not OK to have in a particular org's forum (to wit: NPHC recruitment vs NPC recruitment).
If a supermod ever does close or move threads in a modded forum, it's usually because the mod of that forum is offline for a period and has requested that people "look out" for goings on in the forum.
If PenguinTrax cleaned up some threads in the Recruitment forum, it is because she is a Recruitment mod, NOT because she is a supermod.
And irishpipes, I agree with your whole post. I think GC is a happy medium between yukky things like juicy campus and the sanitized version of Greek life on many national or chapter websites. If it wasn't, we wouldn't have as many people visiting here as we do.
