    Responsibilities of a Valiant Knight
    While there are no formal obligations of a VK, they are expected to maintain the standard of awesomeness. They're extremely helpful or as kaw_creative might put it, rad!

    *NOTE* Valiant Knights cannot act upon ANY violations.

  2. Support, this is really helpful especially when coming back from being away from game.
     
  3. Cool beans. I've never heard of half of those people. Good to know 
     
  4. Question: is there a difference between in-game moderator and forum moderator? If so, what difference is there?
     
  5. Very helpful! Especially when you are bad at names, like me.
     
  6. @rhodium if I'm correct same powers except the forum moderators are devoted more to the forums than the in game stuff.

  8. @Os-Heartfall I see but do forum moderators still have the ability to silence/report/monitor in-game situations? Or is it restricted to just forums?
     
  9. Ah ok thanks Resilience
     
  10. FF80FF
    FFBFFF
    FF00FF
    FF40FF

    They cannot silence in-game. they can report in-game situations, but so can anyone else by emailing support@athinkingape.com.
     
  11. Good idea. 

    I've seen several threads asking who the mods are. Hope this helps.
     
  12. Refer to what resilience said please, he knows better than I, I'm only recently returned to game. :)
     
  13. Sticky perhaps? 
     
  14. No it wont be stickied because ATA only will sticky a thread with this info if it id made my a ATA EMPLOYEE OR VOLUNTEER. I have a thread like this n it got lots of support m ata told me they wont sticky it.
     
  15. Nice some mods there I'd not seen before .. It Would be a good idea to sticky this being able to find a mod isn't always easy for if you don't happen to remember them precisely or if names change .
     
  16. @OMEGA, they had a reason then, ATA does sticky stuff worth sticking like I have a thread they stickied on GaW.
     
  17. Res you should add those differences to the original post
     
  18. Sticky for this is a great idea. How the **** are we supposed to get help from a mod if we don't even know who the **** the mods are? :lol:
     
  19. hopefully avatar is appointed Forum Mod. The other 2 need to be in game mod's.
