The Forum Moderator position is new to YaBBForum. As Forum Moderator, you have all the abilities of a Moderator extending over nearly any post on the Forum outside of the sections reserved for Admins.

The Forum Moderator has an additional ability as well: You can ban users who break Forum rules, are disruptive or are spamming the Forum.

Circumstances sometimes warrant un-banning Members who have been banned. To un-ban a Member, access the Member's Profile. Beneath whichever method was used to ban the member, you will see an “Unban” link. Clicking this removes that Member's information from the banned list.
