    Not sure if it's always been this way or just a glitch, but the last few weeks I've been noticing Dexuby never shows up in the "Staff Online Now" section. I assume the issue also applies to other staff who exclusively have the developer role. Just a minor thing that only applies to two people, but would be nice to see.

    I mean they're literally on the "Staff Team" page so don't know why they aren't considered online staff

    No support. The "Staff online now" section is clearly so that players who are in need of quick assistance can get to online staff easily. With developers in this section, players who don't know the staff team may accidentally contact a developer such as Dexuby about a problem that only a Moderator+ can solve. This wastes the players time, and their problem could be urgent (such as someone duping or griefing)

    In the case of someone duping, I feel like a developer especially would want to be informed. They could login in /vanish, see what the player is doing to dupe, and pass that along to the development team to have fixed.

    I feel like this view demeans developers in general. They are very knowledgeable of the server, and are in chat channels with the rest of the staff members. They could provide quick advice on the matter, and quickly pass along information to other staff members if they are unable to fix the problem themselves.

    Those things are important for a dev as well, and he could also be potentially the only staff online at the time, and if they don't see him appear in the online staff they won't message him even if he may be the only one online at the time

    Well they’re on Forums Staff Page, listed in the SB Discord Staff Channel and are on the /staff GUI in-game, so they should be listed on the Staff Online Now box too.
    This is another good reason why they should be on the page. 100% support.
    I don’t think this might happen because all the Developers have Developer has their title, 3 of the mods have Moderator as their title, all super mods have Super Moderator has their title so it’d be easy for them to contact one of us. And if they do by any chance contact Dex, he can probably let one of us know.

    This should be Debuxy's decision, not ours...

    Support. If Dex wants this I think he should be featured. Especially because he is still a staff member capable of being asked for help and has been willing to help out too.

    I feel like this was purposeful foreshadowing

    Just so this is a relevant comment, since he's a developer now I think if him and Dex at least want it then it should be added

    Not sure why haven't replied to this but could go with a support, just as long Dexuby is okay with this because of ndrew's comment.
