I know this is probably not possible but is there someway we could combine the Chat Moderator and Moderator ranks together? Personally, I feel that both of these ranks alone don't have very effective powers since honestly, very few users other than A-Team members to talk go into the chat so any incidents that would requite a chat mods power are very rare to see and the forums are usually regulated by high-ranking staff who have more powers to use anyway. We could also have it where after a certain number of edits (100 or 250?), a Chat Mod then gains Mod powers.

If neither of these are possible then, like Elf said, then we could just have them both be 'rank 1' staff ranks and dependant on what the user edits, we give them either the Chat Mod or Mod status. The only issue is the way we give out these powers, like Elite said, since both of these ranks give 'community based' powers so we can't exactly have it where if someone does more community-based stuff like being active on the forums and chat rather than more info-based stuff like editing articles since both of these ranks both have powers which are community-based.
