And by the way, moderators don't have to post in the public forums to moderate them. A few don't.
Exactly. Want an example? Yoozel. I live only an hour away from the guy. I met him on these forums, he gave me my first, one, and only ban I have ever received, back when I was new in 2003, and we have become pretty good friends since. I know for a fact he logs on almost everyday, almost because he does have a real life and job, and checks the forums. I report threads to him more often than any other mod actually, he just never really posts in them. Chris, stosh, and godsprophet are also others I report threads to often, and all are taken care of. Also TGP, but him least so, seeing as we are in different time zones and all. I've gotten to know each of them pretty well, not as much as yoozel but thats expected with the distance of the internet, and am of the personal opinion that they all moderate very well. Ninjas do not always make themselves made to those they kill.
Never have a I reported anything and it gone unnoticed. I respect every single Mod we have, just for the simple fact that they choose to take time out of their lives, however small or large, to moderate our community and help keep it under control. I say help because the mantle does not fall to their shoulders alone, we all hold a responsibility to ensure the quality of our community.
