I personally believe this, so I thought I'd give newbies, or anyone who's interested, a rundown on the community mods we currently have.
CoKra
Favoured Posting Colour - Reddish colour (CC2200)
Before he was made a mod, CoKra was the man with the links. You requested it, CoKra would appear from the netherworld to quote you and slap on the exact link, or inform you when there wasn't any.
Since becoming a mod, he's become the hardest mod, sticking 100% to the rules.
While this is necessary for a forum to run smoothly, it has garnered him a reputation for fun killing amongst the more flamboyant posters.
My own personal experience of him is that he is harsh, but usually fair.
If you submit a reasonable request, with valid points, he will no doubt hear you out, regardless of the outcome.
Is noted to have a hate of internet memes.
o0FOXHOUND0o
Favoured Posting Colour - The funky blue above. (0683B3)
FOX posed a few video analysis threads before he ascended to Mod-dom. While I don't remember him much before he became a mod, he was certainly always the name on big OP's.
He's often considered the most reasonable of the mods, and will engage in a debate with any user who believes his rulings are too harsh, before making a verdict. (Currently, this is being shown with the ongoing communication with the CODHQ refugees).

That one was made before I was moderator. It was my second Sticky from 402.)
Now though I am known for taking issues to 402. Like the PS3 modding situation which I and the PS3 moderators spear headed. We got recognized by a few gaming sites for doing it too. I also got 402 to straighten out the the "universe" problem we were having.
Other mods are still prevelent ("thebigb82" and "v Sim Co" being among them) but these guys are the mods you will no doubt encounter should you break rules.
So yeah, those are the mods.
(If anyone wants to submit rundowns on v Sim Co or thebigb82, I'd appreciate it, I haven't had much experience with them.)
