Verifier Role instead of Moderator?
4 years ago

If I'm incorrect on something, please tell me.

Everyone (currently and previously) have become moderators and super moderators, but never verifier. I don't understand this, since as a moderator you can change rules, but as a verifier you can (obviously) only verify, I think it would be better to have mods that were added specifically to verify should have the verifier rank. Tell me what you guys think in the replies (do not argue, please, this was meant as a discussion/question, not a warzone)

DDDDRRRRRATATATATATA BOOM BOOM WORLD WAR III seriously though, I don't see any reason for someone to be only a verifier. If they're trusted enough, why don't they deserve to be a mod?

Well the main point was if they're purpose was to only verify runs then I don't see why not to give verifier to those people, and even so, this could also make people who want to be mod can become a verifier instead (of course if the super mods find it right to do so). Just a thought.

when runs are submitted and they are timed wrong verifiers cant edit the time, goofy and bismuth were verifiers for like a day then im pretty sure they got promoted to mods becauuse of that

@eddiecatgaming I can retime on a game that I am a verifier of, so I'm not sure what you're talking about.

Verifiers only have the option to accept or reject a run unless they have changed that. It's pretty common for a submission to be submitted with the wrong time, region, system, etc. It doesn't make a lot of sense to have a bunch of runs in the queue with incorrect data and then they have to ask someone else to fix it.

We're not adding folks who we don't trust. Sure, they have access to change the LB settings, rules, categories, etc. I generally make most of the changes, but they are allowed if it's been discussed and agreed upon. Every single one of us is in the moderator Discord and we discuss any changes of significance before we actually do it.

Super Mods have access to the audit log and that gives information on pretty much everything. Runs being rejected or accepted, aspects of the leaderboard being changed, etc. It also logs everything that happens in the forums, edits to comments, even if you delete your comment, we can still see that.
