TwitchTV Mod Chat Bug

http://support.twitch.tv/discussion/4140/bug-chat-user-list-not-working-missing-mod-options#latest

Cut and past from there:

There is currently with an issue with the userlist not populating on many channels. This typically happens during events when the chat server is under heavy load. Also, related to this issue, moderator status may not displaying properly as well preventing mods from seeing the timeout and ban options in the web chat. Twitch is aware of the issue but there is not user end solution at this time.

If you are a mod in a channel, the chat commands will still work for moderation. These commands are:

• /timeout [username]
• /ban [username]
• /unban [username]
• /slow & /slowoff

Don't type the [ ].

You can also confirm you are a mod by typing "/mods" and make sure you are on the list.

I am Mod a few places and I have been having trouble with this myself on and off, seems random from my end, ie doesn't matter Browser or OS, so not much you can do if other than use the "/" commands, and some people I know have even reported problems with "/" commands not working.

If anyone has any more information please share it in comments, so far I can still get by allowing anonymous posts, if Spam gets to bad for me to keep that up, you will still be able to post with Open ID (most people on net have them, if you have Gmail/Yahoo/etc you have one already).

I will post updates if I find out any more.

Shoutout to all the Mods & Admins that keep SC2 Tournaments & Streams running

[updated 06/21/2012]
[updated 11/17/11 with more names]

Mods and Admins do a lot of hard work, and seldom get the recognition or appreciation they deserve.

Without all the hard work they do, we wouldn't be able to enjoy the awesomeness of Esports as much as we do.

So I am sending out a big thank you & a big <3 to all the Admins & Mods out there that keep chaos from ruining Esports!

I am also asking you, to please take the time to say thanks to an Admin or Mod the next time your in a chat, it will mean a lot to them.  Most of time they are working for free or a token wage, that positive feedback might encourage them enough, that they keep doing their hard work.

I have started two lists of the admins and mods that I know so far, first one is of the ones for which I know their Twitter addresses.  So you can send them a message of appreciation if you want to.  I am new to Twitter so if I messed up or missed something I apologize in advance.  The second list is for admins and Mods that I don't have a Twitter address for.

I want to expand this to include every Mod or Admin possible, so please Tweet me @CliffsEsport, or comment on this post, and I will update this post with additional names.
