My first suggestion was to just include simple and not nested categories, which I changed later. I now suggest to support one level of nesting for a simple reason which I want to illustrate using boards:

If you create a board, there are two tabs for permissions (based in WBB 3.1): one for ordinary users and one for moderators. The permissions for users are just shown in that tab and the ones for moderators are just shown in the other tab. That can now be handled with the first level categories.

With a second level the list of permissions could be separated into tabs, which is helpful if you have a quite long list of permissions. I made a quick mockup for user permissions to show you what I mean (while reading, replace "anwtorten" with "antworten" ;)):
