I dont understand, his presence on realm chat brings benefit to realm.
You have someone willing to invest part of his free time to help new players by answering questions, talk with older players and possible share some news he got (as he is a staff from NGD). And plus, he will sure try his the best to make realm chat more pleasant place, eliminating trolls/other kind of bad users.

My point is not to negate you, but I m failing to see good reason for such a "complain".

What are you his spokesman? You sound like you're reciting a resumé for the guy. My point is this; not only does it appear big-brother-ish, but he's not exactly a "righteous" user, I've seen him swear in realm chat ON a mod account... And here you talk about cleaning up the chat and setting a good example...my only problem with that isn't that he swore it's that it said "[Mod]" next his name.

Look, I'm not trying to troll, I'm simply saying that these things could be avoided by simply hanging out in chat as a "Regular user". If you need to do "mod duties" then log into that account. Historically RO hasn't needed official policing, we do that pretty well on our own. We also help the noobies. On our own. We don't need a frackin' hall monitor.
