To be honest I like all the mods here, despite some of the complaints I've seen I find them all to be pretty level headed and have a good understanding of the goings on in the forum. I also appreciate the effort they put it, especially the voluntary. Being a mod is not fun at all.
That being said I do like the mods who particpate in conversation, ferminal is one of my favorite posters here regardless of being a mod (I don't even get the mod feeling from him, still feels like a regular user). Bala Verde was very active in the first year of CN but less so nowadays. Martin has become pretty active in recent months and i find likeable. Francois was always one of the best posters. Alpe d'Heuz very freindly, rdv too. Not too familiar with palmerq (and others I may have missed). And of course susan, whom I quite like, some of her posts are pretty funny also.
And of course barrus was the mafioso inside man, so there was that
