This was brought up on a mabi thread last week. Things got hairy and no mod was on that night, thread eventually became a spam fest. You guys should get at least 1 graveyard shift mod.

Mfw I'm always online when all the admins/mods are offline
Edit: I'm not suggesting anything since 90% of the forums hates me.
Moderating positions shouldn't be based on popularity contests

Believe it or not, we don't actually have "shifts" for mods ._.
Also, incidents like that don't happen too frequently so a graveyard shift mod would spend most of their time doing nothing.

Mods are just like normal people too, they have their own lives to attend to, and can't get everything immediately on the spot.
I think things are fine the way they are so far.

I had actually made a comment in that thread regarding mods never being on late at night when the trolls come out, but that was mostly out of frustration.

multiple users reported that thread when things started to get rough, but with no one to respond... we know how that went =P

Shame I have school during the day :U
I doubt I'd qualify, though.

Favoritism, 4 reel yo.
Regardless, we should be able to apply for the job!
(bad attempt at staying on topic)

I consider myself a late-night moderator!! :D
It's the only time I can ever make it on.

We're good on mods, honestly I have yet to see a major problem with a lack of mods
they're people too, they can't afford to spend all day patrolling this forum.
And no one can expect like on duty times because that thought is ridiculous since all of our mods are pretty much volunteers
they do what they can when they can
If we were to hire more mods I'd vote on Lan, Zid, or Addy
they all have very good judgment and are all good tempered

You flatter me. o///////o
I don't think my schedule works well with staffing a forum, though.

I don't think we need MORE mods.... and also there has to be a point where the Staff doesn't need to babysit us 24/7. They all have lives, and no offense to anyone here, but there isn't really anyone suitable to be the "late night" staff person.
Besides, I bet they don't get that many reports late at night to warrant this. They can wait in the morning until a moderator can get on and deal with them.

I'm sure they've
