New Feature: Contact Staff

[armyvern]

Wait a sec...if you're online now (judging from the speed of the response), how come your name isnt on there?    ???

My user settings for "show on-line status" in my profile are currently set to ...

"No."

To add:

I tried the link to the Contact Us page - is it feasable to have on that page the names of all the current Mods?  Or is that redundant?

Ah, seen (or in this case, read),  that would also explain the 'offline' under your photo in the post.... kind of a 'covert Moderator' status....  ;D

There,

I switched my settings for you (I just neglected to switch 'em back last night) so I should show up now.

I think the contact list above is for getting in contact with a mod quickly ... for whatever reason ... when you need one who is online.

Other than that, if you want to just PM a mod who is offline (thus not showing), you can always go to their profile to send a PM.

But I think you have a good idea for Mike if it's possible. When you click on the "Contact Us" hyperlink in that bar that, besides the little note, there were a listing of all the site mods with the PM box next to their names (green box for online, white box for those offline). I don't know if it's possible though.

Hmmm,

Perhaps that main drop down list can even be modified to include all staff onto it ... with their status box beside their name. That way you'd know immediately whether they were online or offline and could make contact to any of them from this location.

Perhaps with those mods with green status boxes (thus online) listed at the top by auto-sorting which places the most recently active mod at the top of the listing.

Interesting.

That sounds even better!

Im not sure if it has a practical use, other than seeing who's on line or not, but I think it would show just how many people (Mods) it takes to monitor during any part of the day.  Perhaps it would be a boost for site credibility?  (As if it needs any more...)

However, itwould be a negative for the least active Mod.  He/she might be labelled a 'slacker'...  ;D

Heh, Mike's going to hate us for coming up with this stuff... wait till the site starts jumping in the morning and a few hundred others start giving ideas...  >

Oh, forgot to add....

Just for me!!!!???    :blotto:  (hehe)

That listing up there changes constantly now. Whichever mod last pressed "click" for whatever reason shows at the top of the list. It just only shows "online mod."

There's no rhyme nor reason to the number of mods on the site during any given time or part of the day ... when we're here, we are; when we're not, we're not. The list would mean nothing towards which mods are here more often etc.

Me?? I'm an insomniac, ergo I can usually be found hanging around most of the time.

Mmm. 30 peoples there ...

Nice list if someone ever want to petition one of the 20  DS who didn't make a " Meet The Staff" interview  ...

(if you include Mike B.)
