If a mod needs to suspend/ban a user they can do so, they do not need a Admin to do that. The moderators have access to everything they need to moderate the forums. While yes the ACP does contain some useful things, these are things that are, for the most part, not needed during the day to day moderating of the forum. The only thing that might be useful is IP banning which is in the ACP and not to the moderators.
Also I would need Regalis's approval, especially since an Admin has practically total power over the forums to do as they please.
I feel like the Mod to Admin ratio is perfectly fine as is, as mentioned, an admin only has some extra buttons that you can press, otherwise it's a very similar job, I never find myself feeling restricted in my work, as all duties I carry out require nothing more than the average moderator CP. And Regalis will be returning within the week, so I don't see the need to hire a 'temporary' admin that will demoted once he returns.
It slep time bunner.
