How is a supermentor any different than a regular mentor? Do they have super powers?

Tom has been known to reply to threads unsarcasticly. For him that's a super power if you ask me! :biggrin: :-p
 
:smile: The title is different and they can do more things than before.For example,move & lock/delete threads in the forums which they do not moderate.

Nice one Gokul. I'm going to have to be more careful now. :wink:

One question though, do you have to have subscribed to be a mentor? Just wondering as I do not believe I have seen any that do not have avatars.
