It would be nice for a moderator to be able to click an icon to hide a marginal post from the regular users and leave it visible to the other mods and admins to review and make a decision on whether it stays or goes. Maybe have a message that says "This post is under review by the staff" or something. That way we don't have to delete it or move it to the deleted section and screw up the whole thread if we decided it was OK. Of course it would have to be marked somehow so the other moderator or admins can see that it is under review. Thinking out loud here.

I'm guessing you'd have to add a new entry to the w3t_Posts table. It could be something like B_Hidden. The toggle would be in the editpost.php script, and a new check would be added to the post loops in showflat.tmpl and showthreaded.tmpl. If B_Hidden is 'yes' and U_Status of the viewer is not 'Administrator' or 'Moderator', then don't display the post - else display the post. Thinking out loud as well.

This would be a bit tricky as you can't simply turn "off" a post in a thread without throwing other stuff (like new post tracking). Plus if there are replies to a thread you try to hide, it would further complicate things.
I'll have to think on this one.

I think that You don't have to hide it completly. Just make it unable to read by users. If You hide it, users may wonder what happened with their post and might write it again.

That's exactly what I am talking about. Not hide the post, just the content. Sorry!
