If you need a name changed or an avatar restored, I would refer people to the threads dedicated to these things. If you have an issue with another player, ignore them, or report them. Feel free to explain the point of view as to why it's necessary to find moderators directly in-game. Perhaps I'm just looking at it wrong.
Well, a moderator is responsible for making sure that the game has a relatively safe and enjoyable atmosphere above all other responsibilities and powers that you mentioned above. It would seem hard to actually enforce or even do any of those when no moderator is actually around. What would take seconds, now takes days because you have to send an email or make a post on the forum. That is an inconvenience for the players/customers that shouldnt exist, especially since we are supposed to have 10 in game moderators at the moment. If the players did all the things you said above, why even have moderators as they dont seem to serve a purpose anyways.
Why would anyone volunteer to be an in game moderator if they arent willing to fufill their responsibilities to the community and the developers?... If someone isnt able to consistently commit to being mod by doing any of the things you said above, they shouldnt be one, even if they are volunteering their time.
Anyways, this post was only to answer your specific question, on the hypothetical scenario that moderators in game do in fact not show up to their duties. Whether or not they show up is not something I know, so this isnt directed at anyone...
