Responding to this here because you weirdos like to lock threads lol.
[QUOTE=Moderation Rules] Preferential treatment of any type (moving runs up in the verification queue, verifying runs that do not meet standards, etc) is forbidden, especially if associated with payment or favors. Failure to remain impartial may result in moderator removal. [/QUOTE]
By verifying faster runs quicker, you are giving preferential treatment to faster runs. This is against the sites moderation rules which can be read here: https://www.speedrun.com/knowledgebase/moderation-rules
As you guys are moderators/verifiers I would have hoped that you had familiarised yourselves with the moderation rules.
@jackzfiml So now you're forcing a speedrun.com user to use discord, a completely different platform, just because they want to know why they were banned? What if I am from China and discord is not an option?
[QUOTE=hahhah42] I don't think this could possibly be true. SRC doesn't host videos of runs, doesn't have ownership over them, and therefore can't validly claim copyright regarding them. [/QUOTE] They claim ownership of the data regarding the run such as the category, time, etc. from what I understood.
[QUOTE=jackzfiml] After reading this thread, I have a feeling that Elo is gonna get sued someday. [/QUOTE] If we wanted to, they could have been sued (successfully) for not cooperating with GDPR before they had added the option to export data.
@IGS_BrixTzy BRO STOP ALTING
You can already see the runs in the queue via the bot in the discord server

@Oreo321 What I basically took away from it is that a community cannot move their leaderboards off of sr.c unless they get permission from every single current and past verifier and every single current and past runner as of the new TOS being in place. Basically they're legally locking communities into staying on the site by making the demands to leave too absurd to comply with. Also apparently showing us ads and such was against the previous license making it completely illegal.
