The alerts go to our e-mail addresses, and the spam usually gets cleaned up pretty quickly.

As Bijou mentioned, it usually works more efficiently to send an on-line moderator a PM.

which would require us to know who is online - and for there to be one online!

That's the place to look. Some Mods are invisible but I never am. However, as Ralph said, it's usually better to PM Mods (including me) if there is a problem.

just because someone shows as online does not mean that they are in fact - on line.

I guess not but what's your point? Mods aren't going to agree to some kind of monitoring schedule. Generally, when people are on but not actively reading the board they will check it every hour or so. That's about the best anybody can hope for.

hey - if the owners and the staff don't care - what can a lowly member do.

It's not a matter of "not caring". A PM usually gets pretty quick and individual attention. You (I mean the collective "you") may not always agree that a situation doesn't require intervention. If you are the so-called aggressor, you (I mean the collective "you") may feel that what intervention we do is unwarranted and stupidly intrusive.

It's a fine line. That we manage to attract centrists, paleo-conservatives, lefties, and the Great Unaffiliated means that our level of oversight is generally acceptable. ;)

I'n not talking about the people and various forms of subhuman life that come here and post for the sake of discussion. I'm talking about when someone shows up at the door and they go off posting spam - or God forbid - PRON!!1!!
