Call Mod button

The credit for this idea goes to Final, for the initial idea. I hashed out the rest myself.

Suppose we're in battle. Our opponent starts to Battle Hold. We don't have time to PM a Mod to come watch, and sometimes we can't take screenshots (on mobile, perhaps) or don't know how, or are lagging. What do we do?

A Call Mod button, available only in PvP fights. Click, it'll ask "Are you sure you want to call a Mod?"
Select yes, or no if it was an accidental click.

A Notification pops up on Moderator's screen, similar to PMs. They click, it takes them to the battle, or the screen of battles to choose from, in the case of multiples at once.

Sound good?

PROS
Mods can quickly go to said BH'd battle. Players would have an easier time of calling a mod to their aid when in a tough fight.

CONS
Coding difficulty?

Decent idea. Not likely to be coded soon, but a decent idea o-o

I'm somewhat worried of the availability, or lack of it, but since the occurences are rather rare, should be fine.

Hmm...what if there are more than 1 mod online? o.o And they answer at the same time? I like the idea just curious about that o.o

Both would probably view it, but we have an efficient way of communication, so doubt both would go enforce battleholding rules if it comes to that.

Could always have a option for mods to see if anyone is already watching =o

Seeing as how things got bumped. Something that would be more useful would be a battle log that could be accessed. I know this isn't the suggestion, but in a way it's not 100% off skew. If it were a log, then we'd be able to see all the moves not just the point we were called in at.
