Ryedwag has submitted a run to the leaderboards, his run will be rejected (*edit and he will be banned) for the following reasons:
-
He lied to the speedrun moderators in order to have all the previous moderators removed, without any discussion and with the expressed goal to give power to himself.
-
His removing of all his previous runs and posts from the boards, suggesting his complete lack of interest in the boards or the speedgame.
-
His massive, multiple spamming campaigns on the forums. https://imgur.com/a/nd8w6XN
-
Lastly, he is submitting a run not due to a desire to compete but to enable further shit posting. His submission is in fact a resubmission of an old run done over three years ago. This act is clearly done just to quell the claims the he is not 'a runner' of the game. He admits this in the tag line. He couldn't even be bothered to run the game once more to achieve his malicious ends https://imgur.com/a/PqInhr0
-
He deleted the entire San Andreas Individual leaderboards at one stage simply because he felt like it.
-
It does not follow the rules that FPS must be shown and be capped to 90.
This clearly evidences Ryedawg's lack of respect for these boards and speedrunning in general. These actions are clearly disqualifying. This is not Ryedawg's shit posting play ground. I am tired of being the one to have to clean up Ryedawg's garbage on these boards. I am the one who has to delete 100s of dam repeated posts. He is banned from these boards, for whatever that is worth.
*Editors note: Ryedawg's run violates the rules and there is no precedent to accept it. I believe the things I have listed should result in Ryedawg being banned. I can't ban him. Toriks has suggested he will accept Ryedawg's runs if they do not violate the rules, that is his prerogative.
If the run was done according to the rules at the time it should be allowed to be on the board, that's how runs with ifruit were handled. As for the other points you mention, while it's shitty behaviour I don't think that should warrant a ban from the leaderboard. The only reason someone should be banned is for cheating. (e.g. Anti).
Your tolerance for bullshit that you don't have to deal with or put up with is admirable Derpeth but, as it stands, if Ryedawg wanted this run on the boards he shouldn't have removed it a year ago. If he wanted to be included on these boards then he shouldn't have gone out of his way to disrespect them as best as he could. The idea that literally lying to moderation staff to take over a board ISN'T a bannable offence is laughable in of itself but the rest holy hell. No run that violates a rule has been submitted and accepted after a rule has changed. We do not remove runs from the board that do not conform to rule changes, we have never added them after the fact. When people are voting or advising on rule changes, they obviously shouldn't be allowed to have secret non-submitted runs that would influence what they say that no one else knows about.
Who cares if he removed it, if he wants it up now, what's wrong with that? lelreset removed all his runs before, and now they're back up, and no one's complaining. Just because you have a personal conflict with him doesn't mean the accuracy of the leaderboard should suffer. That's incredibly selfish & childish.
@DarkViperAU Obviously trying to actively sabotage other runners would be considered cheating as well.
i didnt even get to see the runs or anything when decision is already made, not cool. I dont want to start more problems but if you have too much history with too many people it affects your decision as mod. IF Ryedawg gets a PB now with FPS cap and within all other rules i will accept it.
Toriks. You literally don't see or check any of the runs that get submitted. Since when did you want to see all the runs? We have a back catalogue of hundreds that you haven't seen, shall I pop the popcorn? Are we meant to divine when you want to be included? What other things do we have to specifically reach out to you and contact you about, can I get a list? I must have missed the memo where I was required to read your mind. You clearly don't give a shit about me, yet you want me to care about you? What amazing hypocrisy.
Ryedawg has done everything humanly possible to violate boards. He has deleted entire categories, deleted dozens of runs, deleted dozens of posts, spammed on discussion posts, trolled on discussion posts, made memes attacking runners, lied to speedrun.com mods, lied about GTA V moderators and the list goes on and on. This isn't a person who is speedrunning, this isn't a person who deserves to be on a leaderboard. Bad actions in life SHOULD have consequences. If any of you want to defend any of the listed actions in the first post as "good" and undeserving of reprimand, feel free. If you want to argue the submission of this run is anything but trolling, also make that case. Too much time is dedicated on this board to cleaning up Ryedawg's shit despite that he has not even touched the game in over 3 years. Give me one good reason why I should put up with a person who has specifically, maliciously, harassed me and tried to make my life worse for the last 2 fucking years. Who, even beyond me, has done nothing but treat speedrunning with nothing but disrespect. Who, even for the troll, wasn't willing to actually open this dam game and do a run?
Come on man. Even the small video I showed has there being 3 minutes between the groups of spam posts. He started to respam the message because he was watching on my stream that I was deleting them. He also did it with multiple messages over a 30 minute period.
I can make shit memes as well. It has the advantage of being based on fact but when have facts ever mattered here 
I'm an egomaniac and even I wouldn't have written an entire paragraph kissing my own ass lmao
As a new member of the community and seeing as Viper likes to use votes to make a change I think it’s only fair we cast a vote and see if the community would like to have RyeDawg’s submission added.
Considering there’s some obvious hostilities between Viper and RyeDawg I think it’s only fair that he isn’t the person to bring justice (or lack of) unto him.
I dont get the people here, why protect this asshole? he lied to mods, fucks people over, spam the forums, and you keep on protecting him, you wanna try to be funny to cope with your undying depression? go to 4chan or reddit or some other shit. these forums are not for you. if he submits a run after the rule change EVEN IF its an old run he submitted way before, its too fucking bad, cuz he deleted it, if you wanted to remain on the leads, dont delete the damn run. and do me a favor on saying that Viper does shit like not consult the mods? he consults EVERYONE, he posted a thread about it before the rule change, and everybody got like great ideas in order to make runs a bit more even for everyone. like do me a favor, After mods like cheeselover left, Viper and Demetrius are the only guys who give a rat's ass about this game
Like I said, I’m pretty new to this community. You might think Ryedawg is an asshole, other people may not. I was saying that nobody else was seemingly spoken to about not allowing RyeDawgs submission and the title of the post insinuates that the post is about said submission. He was also banned from the forums.
This thread is supposed to be about his submission, not why Viper doesn’t like RyeDawg.
I’m not defending anybody here. I’m not insulting anyone here.
I’m trying to make you realise what you look like to people looking to join the GTA V Speedrun forums. I barely wanted to post because of the way i’ve seen what appears to be one of the older members treated.
Viper banned him because Viper wanted to ban him.
If Viper is the police, who polices the police?
His fellow moderator waded his opinion in with no aggression or anger, yet Vipers response was hostile.
ryedawg resubmitted an old run, which is done under an old ruleset. it doesn't meet the current requirements for the run to be accepted. (eg 90 fps cap) the run can be rejected just because of that reason. not sure about the banning thing
Do you ever get tired of being wrong?
I of course can't show myself checking your followage, I knew you were not following me despite your trolling in my chat. But circumstantially this would be a massive coincidence wouldn't you say? Illuminati7777 isn't banned. KD isn't banned. They can hate me but they aren't trolls.
"Why can't I speak in Vipers channel where I am for whatever reason checking if I am banned!" Cries in English_Ben
I wasn't told he submitted old runs so thats why why i wanted to know. Only found out later from one of vipers posts. Then we wouldn't have all the banning drama. Off course i would reject that too.
I had no intention to try to be friends or enemies with anyone. I tried to act as a mod even tho i am not perfect and not always around ( which i am being blamed for). I guess i missed part in vipers first post about old runs so i got suspicious about fact that runs got rejected because of personal issues against rye.
I hope when this all drama will settle we can cone together and forgive and forget. I want compete in the game by having fun, chilling and not be a politician on leaderboards.
"I knew you were not following me despite your trolling in my chat."
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
