[Andrew] Moderator Panel v1.9.8

[Andrew] Moderator Panel provides moderators enhanced visibility into user behavior and additional moderator features. The thought is that by providing better visibility to warnings, reports, thread bans, and ignores, moderators will be able to identify problem users faster and will rely less in impulse when making decisions on users. All features are permission controlled and can be enabled or disabled.



Features:
