I know Mods hae thier own lives to deal with (Most of them any way) and it is Sunday after all, but I noticed on the Breaking news forum that it was being moderated by the following:
Skyfloating, lombozo, watch_the_rocks, TheBorg, khunmoon, gallopinghordes, JacKatMtn, MemoryShock, seagull, semperfortis, maria_stardust, Hal9000, Badge01

Out of curiosity, I had a look at the baord home page to see who was online currently (general Members) and noticed that Badge01 was the only mod online.

Short of declaring free reign for tha next however long till Badge01 spots the mayhem, is the 'board' list not updated or is the above list not correct?

For the record, it will make no difference to how or what I post. Just a curiosty thing and to say maybe we could give Badge01 a fair go until the next sift arrives.

Its rare that only one Mod is online but it can sometimes happen...especially between 3 oclock and 6 oclock in the morning (for which admin has also chosen European Mods).

However, if you have any issue, just use the Complaints-Form...it usually never takes more than 5 to 15 minutes before these get read by someone.

Thanks for that Skyfloating. No Issue. I just thought it seemed odd.
Now I know you are here at least. That'll take some pressure of badge...

Dang!! Thers an opportunity missed.
We could have taken Badge out to DATS and distracted him while the food fight was going on...
I will have to be quicker next time...

In my opinion Badge01 could hold down any fort. I have spoken with him/her on occasion and is extremely pleasant. But I wouldn't cross any of them. Any disorderliness would eventually be dealt with.

Viking, Viking. You disappoint me. Such primitive methods.

It's WAY easier than that. Next time this happens, just U2U Badge and ask him who killed JonBenet. Then, while he's writing you a reply, (likely to be the longest U2U you've ever received), you can start the food fight.

( Just messin' Badge; you know I love ya!

Well, I'm not sure how it is on ATS now, but I know on the XMB boards and most forum software there are tools to mark a member as invisible, perhaps those mods are marked as invisible at certain times of the day.

At any rate, doesn't really matter, as has been said, that usually doesn't go on for very long before another mod checks in.

The following is my opinion as a member participating in this discussion.

You mean to say there are no mods from Africa or Australasia? Somehow that feels wrong... As a matter of fact I think it's a conspiracy.

There. I said it.

As an ATS Staff Member, I will not moderate in threads such as this where I have participated as a member.

I'm going to need to see proof and evidence of that buddy.

Because last I checked there were at least 2 or 3 mods from the land of the Aussie.

I think we know where our dear Gemwolf hangs his hat. I hear his toilet water spins the other way than those of us in the northern hemisphere.

But don't be fooled folks. A Mod can be on the boards with a sock puppet and you would never know.

Alright kiddies, Gemwolf is the only one on duty.
It's time for the takeover.

Ooops. Too late. There are at least two of us now...you're all doomed.

Your posting privileges have been provoked until further notice. Your account is under review. (Well, it will be as soon as the rest of the moderators decide to bless us with their presence...)

Edit to add: See. All I have to do is get on my ATS satellite phone, push a few buttons and a whole army of Mods descend...
