Moderators have access only to forums and chat.
Game Operators have the ability to observe maps and events ONLY through a bug report. Staff can't just open up random maps for fun. Senior staff are usually also game operators, including the senior moderator, main administrator, and community coordinator.
Game operators are blocked from working on a ticket from their own games, AND are forbidden to reveal information that they observe to anyone not authorized to see it.
As the players league match is an official tournament of Bytro the game is checked thoroughly at the end by either the community coordinator or the main administrator. For concerns about cheating or rule violations during the game please direct your questions to the coordinator of the players league K. Rokossovski, and he will submit a bug report for review.
In the event you do not feel comfortable approaching K. Rokossovski with an accusation or concern you may request support with a bug report/general question from within the game and it will be reviewed by staff that do not participate in the players league.

It would be difficult for them to manage. I suppose someone might know how to manipulate a bug report in order to give access, But it does leave a trail. Every action is logged.
Checking that log is part of the:

If you have a specific incident that is prompting this line of questioning, please bring it to staff attention in private.

Hey Mark,
As @VorlonFCW said mods can't access games only those with the correct permissions can but they can only log into rounds when there is reason and they are NOT allowed to log into their own rounds at any time (and those with those rights are checked by moi to ensure no foul play)
GO's should only be loading games where there is cause to login (ticket from inside the game created by a player). In addition all tickets from PL rounds go to the EN Server Support and not the other language servers, as it is an en server game and as a result only EN GOs and higher should be able login, (note: if GOs are higher are in the PL round they can't login to own games this includes other GOs loging into players games without just cause /reason (ticket) (we take that rule seriously)
I hopes these words reassures you that we do not allowed cheating at any level from player to support team
Hope you have fun in the PL round this month
All the best

Thx

well Mark - this time there will be no excuses

loooooool !
as i told u, we will beat u 2vs4 in a clean game.
8 Mar 2018, 15:08
I think an apology to the Mods from the other language servers is in order after questioning their integrity in public.

As promised, no one can match us in a clean game, me and CCHYT defeated 4x BUM players in addition to all the players they allied with to fight us ( Half the MAP).
Let this be a lesson to all that the current Alliance ranking is not worth anything as it can easily be pay to win for some alliances.
I hope Bytro can work on that to have a alliance ranking based on clean games and not pay to win.

I think more apologies should be made.

Mark - as I stated right at the beginning - we haven't played PL as a team, as this is not a spirit of this competition - I repeated many times that alliance matches are much different and it was never our intention to play it in that way on this map. Each of us treated this map as a fun activity rather than an important match... So don't make false conclusions.
But no worries - you will have your chance to re-match with us alliance vs alliance and you will bank the third defeat
PS. it wasn't you, who defeated me on this map but @grandpooba52.

very kind of you to say that

i would like to acknowldge that it was not only me who defeated you
i only was able to succed because you had to fight europe at the same time and because egypt would not make peace i had to make agreements with others, none of the agreements were end game.

Just a question....what happens if ALL the GO's are in the same match and someone wants to report an error or bug? None can check their own match....so....it doesn't get taken care of?

Just saying, it wasn't just you that defeated them. The two of you did do the bulk of it, but not exclusively.

I think that's probably why so many of us long-timers were annoyed at you. Not that you were having fun, but that you didn't treat the match with any seriousness. You guys might not have entered as an alliance (yeah right) but you certainly played like one...even so much as to change allegiances regularly to keep up the fight against the rest of us.
It seemed like such a waste to destroy an entire battle station just to eliminate one man. But Charlie knew that it was the only way to ensure the absolute and total destruction of Quasi-duck, once and for all.

you haven't played many alliance games mate, have you?
"...you didn't treat the match with any seriousness." - that's not true. I always do and never disrespect any opponent, but sometimes real life issues push the game to the very bottom of the priority list. I had real turbulences in my life, hence I couldn't make a significant commitment to the map in March. So that was a reason for the "light" approach. Hopefully in April I will be able to give you some hard time
"Just a question....what happens if ALL the GO's are in the same match and someone wants to report an error or bug? None can check their own match..." - GOs from other communities can help and there are still MAs .
"cough cough...ahem...erm....Grandpoobah....me....Peter...erm...." - well, I think that Mark shows a tendency to spread more propaganda than Mr Goebbels in his times...

Hm....I dunno. I've been playing PL matches off and on since early 2016. So is that a lot? Perhaps. How about you? I don't remember seeing you, before. But then, my memory ain't what it used to be.

Just to be clear, the PL is not an "alliance match". Competitive matches between two alliances are.
