I don’t think moderators should be able to access members’ messages, _except_ for official warning messages. We use the User Note plugin which provides a link to warning messages.
Different forums may treat violations differently, but personally I prefer corrective measures to be incremental so knowing how many times a violation has occurred is important. eg. (over simplified, but in general, similar to this)
- first minor violation - member gets a “friendly” message.
- first repeat of minor violation - member gets warning message if repeated within a relatively short amount of time after the first, else another friendly message
- second repeat of minor violation - temporary suspension
- third repeat of minor violation - long term suspension
tl;dr Knowing what the violation was, when it was, and how many chances a member has had to correct their behavior is important.

The Staff Notes plugin is a great tool here. I’ve seen a number of sites using it for just this purpose (making all staff aware of warnings). While seeing the actual warning may be convenient, the true _need_ here is knowing what the warning is for, not reading the full content. A staff note saying something like “issued first warning for excessive swearing” should suffice for most cases.

Если вы хотите узнать, кто вынес предупреждение, проверьте заметки сотрудников: системный пользователь создает заметку, когда модератор выполняет действия на аккаунте другого пользователя. (Если только заметка не была удалена сотрудником.)
