Showing Online Mods?

I know there's a part to show who is online but even if there was a separate part for showing what mods are online, would be handy

The mods, imho, do a bloody excellent job of keeping the dregs of the internet at bay as is.

I'm personally not convinced adding a 'nag' function would help much, and may infact hinder it by resulting in mods spending all their time dealing with constant PMs and none getting any actual work done.

It also introduces the negative case, where problematic users can see when there probably isn't a mod online at that time.

I can see the appeal, but I think it has significant real world limitiations on implementation.

There is no separate part for showing which staff member(s) is online but you can still see it by looking at the Currently Active Users list (unless they use invisible mode). Our names are underlined to make it easier to see for other members.

I know, not exactly what you meant, but that's the closest to it that is possible right now. I am not sure a separate part just for this would be something that moderators would like to have though considering that at least a few of them prefer using invisible mode when browsing on here. That would make using that feature rather pointless for us
