From what I am gathering, you want a template that they must follow to enter a new post with?
Generally you only use that type of format in a support area... and yes, there are a few add-ons that can help with that, as well as the ability to use user fields for a forum node.
And example of using using fields in a forum node can look like this
Those fields at the top are available at the time the post is being entered, and can be made mandatory for answering (I don't do that on my site).

Looks like you are already doing such with a template that they need to complete.
The one thing I would probably do, in whatever templating add-on you are using, is instruct them to replace the existing images and field responses with theirs.
You may want to set that node to only a discussion area and disable polls in it.
With most of these add-ons, they are going to have the same format for new users and well as experienced.

[OzzModz] Thread & Quick Reply Placeholders & Templates
This is a cool little addon that will allow you to have thread/post templates and manage placeholders. These are set in each node individually by editing the node in the ACP. Place holders can be used to direct people to do or not do something...

The only REAL issue is that those templates with be used for experienced as well as beginning posters, which was something that I was pointing out. But even experienced users should not have a big issue replacing the prompted items.

I'd say more a formatting guide for an acceptable format for the post. But realize... I'm just a deep East Texas "redneck".

To me, that would also be best, as you can set it so that it's not required.. but I think the big issue would be for new users that failed to complete said custom fields... then the data is not there.I would use custom fields

If asking can you disable a moderator from making a sticky, then the answer is yes.... if you have correctly assigned them as a moderator, then you can disable the sticky ability. It's a permission.
They have to be set as a moderator in ACP -> Group Permissions -> Moderator
You simply select that user and turn off that permission for them.

Probably requires template edits (at the least) if not a small add-on to do it via permission (the best solution).
