Hello,
Good Moderator Guidelines & Procedures are informational, easy to understand, helpful, and they should explain what your moderators should do and not be doing. Another part about Moderator Guidelines are setting up a system for Mod Warnings or Mod Strikes, for my forum I tend to give them a reminder first then after 4 Mod Strikes they're off the team.
Moderator Procedures: Moderator Procedures can consist of rules, guides, etc. I like to have my forum rules pulled up while creating my moderator procedures. You want to be sure to add a procedure for each rule and if they have questions obviously, let them ask you. If you have it set up where your members get banned after a small amount of warnings because they're problematic, I created the infractions tool.
Infractions: Your Moderator Procedures can also consist of a infractions list. It is better to color-code your stuff for easier navigation. Infractions is the degree in which the rule breachers action is.
Staff Guidelines: these can be whatever is appropriate for your forum. Just add a bit of common sense and you'll be fine.
