Would the moderation que be handled by one particular admin, or will multiple admins be working on it?
If it was only one admin, that could be problematic for a couple of reasons; for one that could be a lot for one person alone to have to read through and process. Perhaps that won't be an issue here, as it doesn't seem like there are tons of posts..... something to consider though.
Also, if it is one person only, what safeguards are in place to keep that person from using that power to silence posters they don't agree with, or don't like?

If you read my OP, Mods, GMods, Admins, and Owner user class can apprive posts. That means there are like 10+ eyes on it for approvals. Fact of the matter is any of the above can delete, remove, lock any post for any reason they seem fit at any time.

There are several threads that explain various posting guidelines. It's pretty much community choice. Read through the FAQ right here

So essentially, there are no checks in place to stop a mod from silencing anything they don't personally agree with? Doesn't sound like a terribly good way to allow for diversity in view points.
Then you said this:
"There are several threads that explain various posting guidelines. It's pretty much community choice."
But is it really "community choice" if the entirety of the decision making is on as you put "10+" admins with no process for appeals, oversight of admin behavior, or open votes on rules?

We don't choose retards for mods and we all moderate equally. There has been many situations where mods/admins could of silenced other people, but that didn't happen. We are all tolerant, maybe even too much sometimes, so you don't worry about that.
Also if you feel that your post was deleted for not reason, you can always let us know and we'll investigate...

I don't have the impression that people are being silenced very fast. The stupid topics (which even I find stupid) are fast closed and put in the board of shame. All other topics get a chance of evolving in a good topic.
I think the mods are tolerant enough.
This said, I also went looking (through tapatalk) to other forums about hacking. I was a bit curious. For exemple ISA hacking crew and offensive community. I find this forum (evilzone) much more mature than the other 2. They are much more bloaty and most of the postings are of a low quality. Often just spam to be honest.
Lately, I haven't check the other 2 forums anymore (did it for 3days or so), but evilzone I check every day .I'm not able to reply every time (don't want to spam) but I do read as much as I can.
Enough cock-sucking for now,I'm getting emotional ;)

Wait so were some of the boards removed or is it that I can't see them because I am null?
