I was a member of a site that had a group of users that could hide posts. The posts weren't deleted, just flagged as hidden so they didn't display until a full mod took a look at it. An over-zealous member of the group couldn't do much harm; if the post was improperly flagged, the mod just unflagged it and it reappeared. Our group was scattered around the globe so we usually had 24/7 monitoring. I have no idea how it was implemented but it worked very well.
