Do any current moderators talk to any old moderators

Post by Tomatoshadow2 »

Hey guys,

I was just wondering, how many mods are left to run the boards? I noticed a lot of the other moderators haven't been active in a long time.

So I commend Dan, Limpet, ssmith, James and other ones I've seen, thanks for always making the community one of the best.

Thanks.

There are something like 10 Global Moderators on the forums at this time. Some don't post frequently but do clean up after spam or review initial user posts and activate their accounts. That means they don't show up as active even though they are. Others offer advice or deal with issues in threads so they are more visible than others.

@Dan Your are welcome and haha no doubt,haven't seen him yet. @Malliz interesting, I didn't know that. I read Alex Bishop used to run the site, many years before I have joined, but has since been less involved.

Yes very well said, your guys' comments are priceless, I always enjoy your replies to other users, especially when you point out if they've posted multiple times or when they don't listen to your advice.
