@Liv yes those 3 mods are aware they are going to be removed. We (KH Community) re-organized our mods a few months back and how we set up the LBs. 2 of those 3 stepped down from all mod duties at the time and Biz is remaining at a series level mostly.

Hi, pretty straightforward thing, West of Loathing (https://www.speedrun.com/West_of_Loathing)

Mod's been AWOL for a month, and there's a bunch of runs for it being held up as a result. Guy has no contact info besides discord DM (which seems to be wrong or mistyped or some shit because it doesn't turn up lol). May I take care of it?

Hey, I have a problem with the game Club Penguin Online. (https://www.speedrun.com/Club_Penguin_Online) It's literally the same game as the Club Penguin Rewritten leaderboards that have been up for almost a year now. Me and everyone else who speedruns CPR is annoyed by this as this game shouldn't have been approved in the first place and could mislead potential runners into thinking this is where they should post their runs. On top of that, only one person has submitted their runs to this leaderboard, so nothing of value would be lost. We would really appreciate if you'd remove this leaderboard as soon as possible.

@nhaar Staff are already aware of it as one of them said on the forum of the game in question.

Hiya. I would like to be a moderator in this game (https://www.speedrun.com/Phantasmagoria_of_Dim._Dream). So the problem about it is there is a mod that hasn't been active for 2 months ago and I'm waiting for my run (https://www.speedrun.com/Phantasmagoria_of_Dim._Dream/run/zpq785vy) to be verified like a month ago. I know he has a Youtube channel that I could communicate with but even if I did, the person would probably ignore it or doesn't seem to care about being a moderator.

Hey all! I am wanting to add a category for Co-Op Any% to the Violent Storm leaderboard https://www.speedrun.com/Violent_Storm , but the moderator for that board has not been active on the site for over a year and also has never done a run in the game. Can I be added as a mod to the Violent Storm leaderboard to add the category and mode the board as he is no longer active/has never been in the game?

Below is our recorded run from today for the new category.

@Liv Will give it a try. No updates on their Youtube in over a year and they haven't made a post on Twitter since November.

Its worth mentioning that just because someone doesn’t tweet for a while doesn’t mean they won’t see a notification for a tweet. I didn’t tweet for a year, but I still saw any tweets sent my way.

Hi, I'd like to become moderator for [RESPAWN]. The only mod seems to not check forums, and there doesn't seem to be any good way to contact them. There even used to be a ~1:30 run without video proof (A time that's most likely impossible) before I started running this game. http://speedrun.com/respawngame

The mod has two contact methods. Which of them did you try?

Prior to my last post, I didn't try any of them, but after seeing Timmiluvs' post, I thought I'd give it a go (Contacted them on both medias)

I know it says to check with the super mod first, but I would like to become a moderator of Kirby Star Allies, and the only super mod only has Twitch, Twitter, and YouTube. I don’t think YouTube would be reliable for communicating with them, and I don’t have Twitch or Twitter. Would it still be appropriate to request moderation here even though I haven’t asked the super mod?

Considering swordsmankirby is active, no, he also has a discord and there’s a Kirby speedrunning discord (can’t link at the moment) it should be easy to find though

Ok I’ll try looking for him on that

Edit: Huh ok he’s on there, sorry, I didn’t know he was on there because there was no discord link on his profile

Out of curiosity, what constitutes "inactive"? For example, we need another moderator for Hydro Thunder (N64). https://www.speedrun.com/ht

HT moderator is active, however he is not active regarding the game or requests. We have category requests that are over a year old and the moderator has never once responded to anyone nor have the categories been added (or even addressed). And these requests have been open for 1+ years! One moderator is simply not enough with that kind of activity. Despite the fact that they log into the site they're neglecting their duties as the sole mod for a game. Does that still count as "active"?

EDIT: I also feel it's worth noting that category requests that have been ignored include a 100% Game category and an All Bonus Tracks category.

Liv,

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I will reach out to him via Twitter and see if I can reach them to have a second mod added in. How would I submit a time for a category that doesn't exist? I wouldn't be able to select the correct category, would I? If I take these steps and there's still no change can I post back here to see if there's something we can do? Thanks! :D

EDIT: Sent over a note via the twitter (last active April 29th) and YT channel (last post 1 month ago), and will swing into chat if I happen to see him/her on and streaming (last stream at end of May). Hoping I can come back here if I don't ever hear back at all. :(
