A chat command (often a hot-key/emote) that prints '!modcheck' or pings the moderator list to see who's actually awake and on duty. Used jokingly when chat is rule-breaking and no mods are stopping it, or sincerely to summon a mod when raids/spam start. Many bots respond automatically with a count of active mods.

A staple Twitch chat phrase posted whenever moderators are AFK and chat takes the opportunity to break a rule or post forbidden memes. Almost always followed by mass-posting of whatever the chat isn't usually allowed to do (a banned emote, a horny copypasta, raid taunts). Self-defeating: posting 'mods asleep' is itself a flag that wakes up mods.
A Discord bot pattern that lets members DM a bot and have the bot relay messages to the moderation team in a private channel. Solves the problem of mods' DMs being closed or members not knowing who to contact privately. Most mid-to-large servers run ModMail bots; it's a quasi-standard infrastructure for community management.
A quick scan of a server or community to see who's been recently banned or is about to get the boot. Mods or power users do a banninate check when drama spikes and they want to confirm the scorched-earth cleanup is done.
An AFK check is a quick callout — in games, group chats, or Discord servers — used to verify whether someone is actually present or has quietly ghosted the room. One player pings the team, types their name, or calls out in voice chat to see if anyone responds. If the suspected AFK doesn't reply within a few seconds, they're confirmed absent and may face consequences like being kicked, benched, or mercilessly roasted. Outside of gaming, friends use it as a casual poke to confirm the group chat is still alive.
