Hello, i would like my run in parking fury 3 verified, its been pending for about 2 weeks now.

The current super mod has been offline for over a year now with all expired contact information. I've tried making a forum post but i've had no responce. Unsure if im the only one with a run in the queue i mostly just want my run on he leaderboard.

Thank you

@GriffinRupe I just find it very strange, you submitted a run today then decided to track the person down afterwards. Regardless, this is a case of a double-edged sword and technically he is active, we'll see if he ends up sticking around by the end of the week because him not having any social media bothers me but it also seems you managed to get ahold of him even if he read it, might I also suggest that you send him another message of posting here in the meantime (unless he decides to post in the thread of the game).

Right now it can go either one of two ways and I'd like to see if he comes back around.

Hi there, I am going to post a thing that has bothered me and some speedrun mods for some time. Please be patient and read through. If I remember correctly, it started around July, 20th this year. Some people came and found several speenrun mods (mods of Bomb Chicken, Valiant Heart, and 60 Seconds) to report that I "cheated" on my runs. However I didn't know anything about it, no one ever ask me or at least inform me. After those people post on bilibili, where I upload my videos, to ridicule and accuse me, I finally knew what happened. Although they didn't do it all at once, but the time interval is pretty short.

As you may know, China actually blocked Discord and most other conmunication methods you guys are familiar with. So I asked my friend to help me get a dis account ASAP to prove that I wasn't cheating and explained what was actually going on. Turns out, those people they themselves are cheaters. They cheated on Papers, Please, ending 1 and their runs have been removed. As far as I know, their names at speedrun are PapaLouie and his friend, Iktsuarpok(used to be gdzdy) and Lopliter. As for Bomb Chicken and Valiant Heart, things are solved by now and the result is I am not cheating at all. If anyone want to know, you can ask the mods of those games and you will know the truth. Just in case you are curious why they asked those games' mods, it's because I have proved runs on them.

And now, things get way more complicated when it comes to 60 Seconds. Same scenario, they go to CaptNikola, used to be super mod of 60 Seconds, and report I cheated and something else maybe, I don't really know what exactly they said. And then I went to talk with Capt and explain everything and provide evidence and so on and so on. After this, Capt gave me his super mod position and remove himself from being a mod. However since I never been a super mod before and I do want to thank Cpat by trusting me, I asked him back to be a normal mod and help me to manage. I thought everything was over and started working on improving some categories and rules of 60 Seconds, those people started again. But this time, they not only kept on doing their old trick, but they also posted screenshots of the conversation between SeyDie and Capt, between me and Capt and some other people's but without asking for any kind of permission on a Chinese website called bilibili, where I upload my videos.

This behaviour really pissed me off. If really look it through, this behaviour is illegal. Here is the link to this: https://h.bilibili.com/29868565

But, when I wanted to tell SeyDie and Capt their private has been leaked out, I suddenly found I am no longer a mod of 60 Seconds. So together with the question why I am not a moderator anymore, I talked with SeyDie and Capt and once again explained everything. Yet again, I got my moderator back and successfully proved I am not cheating and being honest the whole time and those people are the one who trying to stir up troubles. When I thought things are finally over, this morning after I woke up and finally thought maybe I can work on my new videos, again, they posted another sarcasm, basically saying I am not a moderator of 60 Seconds, wasn't I discussed with SeyDie and Capt about this. Seriously I don't know what's going on here. How come this moderator position becomes like a joke? Oh and btw, now 60 Seconds doesn't have any moderator.

I have been bothered by such a long time, I don't have enough energy and time to make my new videos and not mention the stress I get from those guys and ones who believe in them. Of course I do and desperately want to prove to my subscribers and viewers that they are wrong. I aready posted a 40 min video to refute all the details they accused days ago. But this won't affect them. They can still come here, to speedrun, and talk with some speedrun higher level moderator who doesn't know about this and do their old trick. And then I'll have to explain everything again and those people will have their new "evidence" to accuse me.

Just by reading this I believe you can feel how stressful and time consuming as a victim of slander. Tbh, I really can't think of a way to solve and end all this, but to expose them and this whole thing to the public of speedrun. I hope by leting everyone, or at least every higher level moderators know about this, their old trick and slander won't work again and speedrun can do some actions to them.

I am really, really frustrated and tired to all this. Please help me.

@Liv 2 seconds of me on a loading screen? Whats missing is me on a loading screen, how is that important, theres no changes that could possibly done during this small period. I am unverified on youtube so i cant upload videos longer than 15 minutes so i have to split the recordings in half, i've did this thing in my parking fury 2 All Levels submission and it got verified,this made no changes what so over and completed all levels like it says on the rules, i kept the timer running during my transition from an old recording to a new. I dont have the entire footage anywhere and this is a pretty good run for my standards, i really doubt i'd be able to replicate it if im being honest.

Hello! I have attempted to contact @ToastedGames off-site to no avail. It shows he has no been active for 3 months on the Rocksmith 2014 leaderboard, where i have a run ready to be looked at. I have tried to contact him on his youtube, where has hasn't posted since the start of the year, and his twitter, where he has not posted anything since the start of the year either. I would do more runs for this game but since the only mod is MIA I don't see much point. I would take the responsibility of modding if allowed, even though I am new to the site.

@Liv i did another run in 21:21, its a little slower than my first run but puts me in the same position no matter what which is all i really care about

What i did diiferently is i recorded the whole run start from finish then rerecorded the recording in 2 parts, it shows every part of the run. I've went ahead and submiitted it in place of my old run. Is this enough to recieve moderator so i can get my 21:21 on the board, or any others if i do decide to improve?

@Liv Of course. And if you need any evidence, you can come to me. You can also contact with any one who involved in this, like Capt, to know some details.

Good day, the game FarSky has not been active for a long time; moderators were online 28 days later.

Hello. The Bonk's Adventure (TG-16) moderators are inactive. Both myself and greatjhon are currently submitting runs and the moderators have not responded in 20 days. DK28 and jeffsledge are great moderators, but, have been inactive for more than a year now (maybe longer). I have attempted to contact via their preferred communication methods (discord and twitter) and haven't received a response.

I would like to request moderator status for myself and EvanGrill. Thank you for the consideration and help in this matter.

I'd like to be a moderator for The Tower of Druaga. ruse_sr hasn't been active on this site or Twitch for 3 months and I have a pending run. His Discord link also isn't showing when I search for him, so I assume he no longer has the right account linked or it is gone.

Requesting modship for https://www.speedrun.com/Stunt_cycle , I have a run I submitted over a month ago now which has not been checked, it appears Nocapturecard the mod is completely inactive and does not even appear to have youtube account anymore which they used for their own run. I'm already mod for a couple of other games, and often submit 2600 runs, so I'd be happy to look after stunt cycle too. I'm relatively active and always check emails for submitted runs.

Hello folks @Liv and/or @Daravae ... I sincerely request some moderation for the game Bionic Commando Arcade Machine, Capcom Arcade-1987. https:/​/​www.​speedrun.​com/​Bionic_Commando_Arcade_Machine I have done some interesting runs, until a good one appeared done in 1 loop. The moderators of the game are offline-inactive thru Speedrun dot com like 1 year (corey042) and (JohnXuandou). They are inactive thru Twitch since 3 years: corey042, and JohnXuandou, 7 months. The last run submitted in that leaderboard was done 2 years ago.

I have a pending run submitted recently:

https:/​/​www.​speedrun.​com/​Bionic_Commando_Arcade_Machine/​run/​yoj9ro5m

I will be glad to take care of that leaderboard, since I will also be playing/doing some future attempts of this Arcade version, in 2 loops.

Hello, i currently have a problem with moderators of the game Plug and play (speedrun.com/pnp). These moderators are inactive (one didn't log in 5 months, the other in 1). Apparently, several runs are pending. I do not have a pending run, but i'm writing this in order to have a better moderation. Even 2 years ago, when i submitted a run, it took them 3 weeks to validate it, even though there were only 7 runs on the leaderboards. Some posts were made more than 21 days ago by people wanting their runs to be accepted, and those runs are still pending. So i would like to moderate this game in order to make it easier to new people to run the game. Also, the moderators do not have links to any social media, apparently. Thank you in advance.

Hello I'd like to request Mod status for Overwatch and Overwatch CE. Currently I'm just a verifier for Overwatch, and never added as a verifier to CE.

There are 2 current supermods (only one of them is really active in the community, with verifying runs, submitting runs, adding categories, answering questions, chatting, etc.) The other supermod is active on SRC just not really for Overwatch. He stops by once every couple weeks, and currently doesn't help with adding/organizing the categories/leaderboards.

And the 1 regular mod I rarely see around.

I would like to be a mod to help in adding categories/subcategories and updating any rules that need to be updated. I'm very active within the community and have lots of runs submitted already, and also have lots of free time.

I recently asked the more active supermod if I could be added as a mod, but he ignored/didn't acknowledge my request. He is quite busy with work (and probably school?) so lots of things that need fixing are done very very slowly or sometimes forgotten, since he is pretty much the only one doing all the work.

Thanks.

Hello, I would like to request mod status for Misao (original, not Definitive Edition). Two of the three mods have both been inactive for longer than a month (one has been offline for 9 months), and the one who has been active relatively recently has no social media attached to their profile, so the only way I could possibly contact them is through youtube comments. I also would like mod status in order to change one rule that makes running the game unfair for some people that don't have mid to high-tier PC hardware.

Thank you

@Liv Yeah FearWolfz added me as a verifier to CE a few hours after I posted here. As for not asking them prior to posting here, I have proof of asking them. So I would consider that a lie? The first time I asked, gamebrain just told FearWolfz to take care of it (because gamebrain is always busy with other priorities, which is normal). After a discussion with FearWolfz, I was made a verifier for Overwatch, but not for CE. The 2nd time I asked (last week) it was not acknowledged at all.

I can provide proof in a DM if you'd like.

FearWolfz is the only truly active mod for OW. He is the one that adds categories, updates rules, talks to the community on a daily basis, submits runs, etc. The mod rules for SRC state to try and aim to have 3 active mods for a game. I'm one of the most active runners/verifiers for OW, so I'd like to be mod to help out, especially since FearWolfz is the only active mod (not including verifiers, since we can't update rules or fix/add categories), and he's a busy person with his job.

California, USA

Alright I respect that, sorry for bugging.

And just to be clear, I only posted here because of these 2 rules from the Mod Rules: • Moderators should typically speedrun the game, or at a minimum be heavily involved with the community. • Leaderboards should aim to have at least 3 active moderators if qualified people are available.

And I figured the SRC mod rules are above individual game mods. But I was wrong. Thanks for clearing that up.

Hi,

I was about to submit a run for https://www.speedrun.com/The_Dig but I realized its again a game which is only moderated by El-Nino who has dissappeared for along time now. Can you please grant me Modrights for the game? Nobody of our Adventure Community knows where he is and more and more games he used to moderate are already changed the Moderator like for Loom, Indy3, ZakMcKracken etc. Thanks
