    What happens if a mod say of AH wants to ban another mod of AH.

    Does it happen? or do they need to get permission from the Smod/Cmod?

    It doesn't happen. If a mod of AH did something worthy of banning from AH, they'd be removed as mod of AH by the admins and then they could be banned, if so desired.

    Not quite afaik.

    A regular mod cant ban a fellow mod but I do believe a CMod can ban a regular from a forum as can a SMod.

    I'm not sure they can be banned from the forum, but they can certainly be warned not to post/mod for a certain amount of time which has happened before.

    Banning another mod on the same forum would get disscussed firstly.
    But mods get banned from other forums regardless.

    Was that not a CMod before?

    Can't remember exactly.

    Anyway, Op had the question answered.

    Can't be done. I've tried and it causes an infinite loop that causes boards.ie to run really slowly and eventually go offline.

    WhiteWashMan, as the Rec Cmod has banned a couple of AH mods in the past.
    He can't actually ban us, but just tell us to stop posting.

    Aye. That counted as our temporary ban. Were it to be permanent, we could easily be de-modded and/or banned.
    As above, a moderator cannot ban another moderator of the same forum, or CMod, or SMod or Admin. Moderators of other fora are fair game. They're just users in any other forum than the one they moderate.
