If so, where? And if not, why not? I have made a couple of mod alerts in the past month, and never received a reply...And I'd like to know that they were looked at and I'd surely have appreciated a reply.
I'm sorry to bring up SlickDeals ONCE AGAIN, but they really have a LOT of things down pat. In my profile, there's a "Mod Alerts" section where I can see all the alerts that I have made, and the responses.
Frankly, the moderator alert feels like a tacked-on feature of vBulletin. From the moderator's side, there isn't any indication when I log into FlyerTalk that someone has sent me an alert. Any alert you send goes directly to my email, where it's easily lost in the sea of other emails I receive each day.
I don't use SlickDeals very much, but I have seen the function you describe. Frankly, many things about SlickDeals are light-years ahead of the software FlyerTalk uses. I'm glad we finally got wikiposting here, and it appears to be functioning pretty smoothly, but SlickDeals has had that for years.
I will say that I find SlickDeals' interface a bit noisy, but as far as functionality goes, we are in many respects in the dark ages here on FlyerTalk. Unfortunately, I don't see that changing anytime soon.
