Hi, I'm new to the site, so forgive me if I'm posting something redundant or in the wrong section.

I think we should be willing to add a "Legacy" tab upon request to any game with "legacy" runs.

Why? Well, I've noticed people arguing about speedruns without evidence. Should they be allowed? Should they not?

Why not both?

If people see that the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place spot lacks evidence, they can submit a request to move said runs to a Legacy tab for the game. That way, those run times are still available for people to view, but the default tab will not include videoless runs.

Right now, I'm sure people are aware of the issue, but trust me when I say it's going to get worse. I'm also new to Twitch, but I've noticed something about it - it removes streams over time. So if the top 3 spots are now using Twitch as evidence, at some point in the near future, there will be no proof that a] the world record holder truly achieved the time b] the world record holder ever even played the game.

At the moment, of course, we can see the videos, but we're asking a lot of people in the future to simply believe in the old times and the old ways. :) Of course, if the world record holder comes back with evidence, they can move their scores to the default tab, if they prefer. Some might not feel strongly about it either way.

Anyway, to make a long story longer, let's solve this problem in a way that works for everyone, and in a way that doesn't tax the system too much, meaning a] this is upon request, not something mods need to scour scores for constantly b] if desired, it can affect only the top 3 spots, meaning mods won't need to clean up 100 spots for Ninja Gaiden or something.

Obviously if this is left to one mod, we could run into the situation of them not wanting to move their own WR to legacy, but I feel this solution is as good as humanly possible and can be adjusted as necessary.

Keep in mind we already have tabs for some games for "emulator" scores, as they may be considered less valid or otherwise reasonable to separate for certain games. So this "legacy" tab is no more work than we're already doing, and it solves a developing problem.

Please let me know what you think, as many of you are veterans of this site, unlike me.

Thanks!
