What do you think is the best way to keep in touch with your staff members on your site?
Do you use PM or e-mail regularly or do you use a private staff-only forum? I have a staff-only forum on my board, but I find myself using the PM option more...

I also have a private forum for them, and I use PM too. Chose the PM option, although I use the other one more .. didn't see the variant

Pretty much the same way as Patrick, except for the IM part. I rarely use IMs

I use the private forums and sometimes PM or email. I prefer the private forums as it leaves a record of what was decided or discussed so people can't say "you didn't tell me". If something like that is discussed I also post it in the private forums so everyone knows.

I have a private forum, equipped with a "Mod Log" where my mods and admins post what they did and why they did it when they have to take action. It's a record I can refer to whenever I need to do so.
I think the private forum option is overall the best in terms of getting info out to all mods.

An automated moderation log would be a great idea. I am sure that I saw a few moderation log hacks for phpBB out there... any links would be welcome! Thanks...
