It's years and years since I was a mod and I really can't remember how things worked then. Anyway it's all probably changed.
Do mods have any way of privately getting in touch with each other or supporting each other in difficult situations? I know they do on some sites. As Editors and site owners are often not about, I hope there is support for mods a available off site.
We want to identify moderators with a symbol next to their names. However, this is one of those ideas that may be hard to implement. We also wish to respect longstanding moderators who don't want to be publically known. That means if we gave moderators a symbol to show their status, it would have to be able to be turned off in the user profile.
Must say that Naomis style of warnings first is good. It's commonly used on other. I must admit to getting at least one. Better than getting zapped immediately.
