The user per screenshot used to be a moderator. That’s why they had the ability to close a topic. After they resigned, they got moved back to TL2.

Her choice. She is an admin, that means she can do anything without needing to be TL4 😎

Probably because she’s not very active here on the forum.

I’m sure…

@Thomas_G summed it up well. Basically staff members (that means moderators, admins or both) override all TL settings and are immune to rate limits

Has your question been answered? He did not close anything as a TL2 but is a TL2 now. There was nothing illegal done.
