I've been a super moderator, and an administrator on vBulletin forums before. Basically a moderator is able to moderate certain sub-forums usually (edit and delete posts in that sub-section, send infractions/warnings) and a super moderator is usually able to ban members, see IPs, edit and delete posts in all sections of the forum and so forth. Then there is the admin who is usually able to change usernames and appoint staff in addition to being able to do all those other things. And the super admin is usually the forum owner, and has the most power.
Staff are usually appointed due to their knowledge, helpfulness, maturity, and how long they've been on the forum. If you're looking to join the staff, it'll probably take a few years before they even consider you especially because they have so many staff members already.
