Probably something to consider FAR in the future, when mods are not only online a lot, but many at a time as well.

This would be handy: a feature that tells people which mods are online at the moment, which would be handy if people need to contact them about something. They can simply check and see who's online, and send them a PM or try and catch them on the shout box.

I like this idea. I feel like I've seen this suggested before.. Yet it's obviously not been set into place, so I like that this is brought back up. This can be really useful.

I don't see why this would be too hard to code into the "Staff" page of the sites?
Just use the "Online/Offline" buttons we already have on our profiles and stick them above/below the names on the Staff page.

It'd certainly be a handy feature for anyone wanting advice or help from a mod asap but it doesn't require a report.

I think that's a great idea. Something else I wouldn't mind is them adding the old 'moderator' box in silver above a moderator's username on the forums, as well as different name colors like it used to be. This makes it so much easier for someone to tell when a mod has just posted or not, so it's easier to contact them...

I don't think this would be very useful considering there already two ways to see who is online.
