Can you add a visible, easy-to-find, way of identifying the Moderators and their areas of responsibility according to their colours? I saw a post once that described it, but I think it was only in a post. A few ways would be to make a sticky that describes what each colour title represents (red, dark blue, light blue, green, etc). I can already see the mods at the bottom of a page that I visit, but it doesn't help to know who would be the best person to receive help/advice from on a particular issue at the moment in need. Another way to make this more transparent, might be to put that in the status info of all mods when one clicks on them to find out more information. For example, if I click on oldsoldier's avatar, there will be information about what the red coloured title means versus clicking on Dusty_D's avatar and finding out what a green coloured title means.

I'd like to see this because it would help me direct my concerns to the right individual who I can see is online at that moment. I know that there is the "Report" button to target a specific post, but I've had concerns where that's not the best way of taking action or not possible.

One website that I used to be a moderator for, had a list of all the mods at the bottom of the page (like when I can see who's visiting the same thread that I'm viewing) and also showed which ones were online.

Moderators (like most members) have a pm notification via email, and would get the notification almost right away even if not signed on. If your not 'reporting' a thread/post then it doesn't go into the moderator que area for whoever is online to view and redirect to an appropriate moderator (however, most are 'global' moderators and have permissions throughout the entire ECF).

If this is Canada related you can contact me if you wish......

I don't have any problems to direct to moderators right now, but I have made PM's to mods that I know hang out in the canadian section and it's only because I've been around for a bit to know who they are. I've searched for their names to see if they're online to direct a concern and it just seems that an easier system could be put in place for people to direct their concerns to the right classification of mods and for new people to know who's who.
