So how do i do that?

I have a question for any of them (that i do not want to disclose in a thread)

I remember there was a link that showed you who was online from the mod squad

They are omnipresent, your request was already dealt with before you wrote this thread.

I don't think so, I fail to see brown sugar in the kitchen...

Maybe it's their day off...

Hit the red triangle, top r.h.s. of your post and see what happens.

actually it could be interesting to know it.

I'm an admin on another forum and the staff online has a different colour for his/her name.

If you look at the bottom of the forum list, you should see a clicky that says something like "view forum leaders" which should take you to this link, the mods who are online will have the green dot next to their name, just like anyone else.

Sorry, that is the only way I have found thus far. Hope that helps!

...but if they are 'invisible', like some of the members, they cannot be seen to be around. Probably the best way would be to skip through the new posts and see which of the Mods is busy writing nasty comments on Threads!

You're right.

Members can't see members (or Mods) who are online but in stealth mode. Mods see everyone online but with colors.

= member online, visible mode

= member online, stealth mode

= member offline

It's imperative to the well-being of the Forum that a couple of us prowl around invisible, otherwise everyone would know when all of us are on holiday at the same time. There is method in our madness.

However, as was said....the red triangle finds all mods...whether we're online, sleeping, eating lunch...

...though of course, if a naughty boy were just to start a game of reporting posts to see who is around and thus annoy said Moderators, then said naughty boy might find himself taking a holiday. The Ban Hammer is always within reach.
