Uh, have you asked them?

Have you requested Slyceth to make you moderator? There's no reason that you can't both be moderators.

Regarding the laziness of Slyceth's runs, I'd like to point out that most communities are based on players copying and pasting the best routes. Additionally, if someone was going through my games and posting a new route, I would take that as a challenge rather than an insult. My mindset wouldn't be to piggyback off your ideas, but that maybe I'm not creative enough or have a lot of time in real life to come up with new strategies on my own, but dang it, I can play this game better than that person!

Imitation is the best form of flattery. I'm not sure why you're taking offense that someone thinks your runs are good enough to be considered the best route; that's pretty much how this site works. You can't "copyright" routes, and even if you came up with the best route, there's no stopping someone else from coming in through behind you and making it even better, especially if your original posts are "rough runs".
