moderators ?

[anneasquith]

are there mods on duty in AB during the night ?

[Prudie]

Don't knoe anne, say something rude and find out ;-)

[humbersloop]

Ab Editor never sleeps...

not sure about all night but deffo in the early hours. I was attacked really nastily at 6am one morning...not a joke i mean real horrible stuff, I reported it and it was pulled within a minute of m report.

[DosAmigos]

I believe that they are nocturnal - with a heightened sense of moral responsibility....

[anneasquith]

thats not nice woof :(

[snags]

As Moderators are regular AB users then it's safe to assume they are 'on duty' at any given time during the day or night.

I know B00 shuffles along the AB hallways dressed as a vampire during the wee hours...

[humbersloop]

I've often wondered how they divvy it up between them, but they do a good job.

Ouch, woof.

[woofgang]

it was only words....bit of a shock though.

[rowanwitch]

boo pops in between cake trips to the all night supermarket...

[MarkRae]

"On duty" is perhaps wishful thinking, Anne! As I understand it, mods flit in and out of AB just like the rest of us - they get no recompense for being mods, so there's no rota per se...

[ChuckFickens]

We're all omnipresent, it's part of the requirement.

[anneasquith]

now i would have thought there would be some sort of rota, there is no point if all mods are ( on duty) at the same time ?

[ummmm]

They have different interests and spend time in different categories.

Why are you so interested in mods?

[B00]

Anne- the day I moderate to a rota, it becomes a job- that's the day I hand back in my shiny sheriff badge.

[MarkRae]

Or ask for your first wage-packet... ;-)

[rowanwitch]

I don't even think about the mods except Boo if cake is mentioned ...why should you unless you think you are going to fall foul of the Site Rules...

[ChuckFickens]

I wonder how they'd pay us, would it be an hourly rate or piece rate based on number of bannings and suspensions.

[AB Editor]

Payment would come in the form of something found on my desk once a month. For example, I could offer you a calendar from last year or a Christmas decoration which has yet to find a home.

I prefer the out-of-the-kindness-of-your-heart thing though :)

[B00]

Pffft at kindness of my heart, I'll have the Christmas dec please :-)

[anneasquith]

chuck, if it goes on the number of bannings/suspensions i dont think you^d get paid very much, do you ? :)
