Moderators form the body which performs the vast majority of day-to-day front-line moderation and they work to ensure the Terms of Service are upheld. Global Moderators are Moderators who have moderating powers over most forums on TWC. While regular Moderators usually only moderate one forum or set of forums (e.g. the M2TW forums), Global Moderators are trusted with moderating powers in most forums. They are chosen from existing Moderators and share a badge with other Moderators. If you wish to appeal a decision made by a moderator, refer to the Tribunal or the Praetorium.
