@Dangerless Ok, I just wanted to know more deeply why, thank you. And referring about my first post?

@fepnascimento Absolutely not, it is unbelievable that you've been going around submitting old playthroughs of video games onto various leaderboards. This constant moderation sniping has gotten old, most of these runs in no way appear to be any form of speedrunning and just looking at the upload date of these playthroughs is baffling, I've actually sat here reviewing some of the runs personally and all I can do is just facepalm over it. Even ignoring all of that, there is no actual attempt of "speedrunning" these games.

@Akja Resubmit the game, provide the notes and see what happens. This thread is for moderation requests, not about game requests. As for papers, please we'll see what we can do.

Hello, I'd like to once again request moderator for Runner2. Supernoah hasnt been on in over a month now, and my run hasnt been verified.

Since my request for mod was not fulfilled, who will possibly view my run? ReverseDmitry, the mod, has been inactive for three months.

@Dangerless Thank you and sorry, i'll delete the post about the game

I have just posted a new run for Dunk Shot with a hopefully accessible link. Someone needs to check my run, however, because the mod of Dunk Shot has been inactive for 3 months.

Hello! I would like to request moderator permissions for UNO (Ubisoft) https://www.speedrun.com/uno_ubisoft. I've held the world record in three categories for over a year and had record in a fourth until a few weeks ago. Unlike most scenarios on this thread, I'm not contacting the site in regards to inactive moderators or slow approval of runs, but neglect for care of the page. Multiple cheated, edited and invalid runs have been approved and the moderators either left them on the leaderboards with no action or taken an extended period of time to respond to the inquiries regarding said runs. The rules listed for each category are also incredibly vague and could be explained in far greater detail, to help encourage new runners to submit to the page. I've reached out to the moderators on other social media platforms in the past and they've told me they don't need help moderating the page at this time, but invalid runs keep getting submitted, with what feels like, no proper analysis of the gameplay. For a game with most runs ending in times under two minutes, I see no excuse for this type of carelessness and I truly believe the community and page could benefit from a new moderator taking action. Please let me know if there's anything I can do or if I am able to be granted moderator permissions. Thank you for your time!

Hey i just wanted to let you know that the current moderator for the heart & slash leaderboards is inactive. His twitter looks like it hasn't been used in over a year, while his twitch and youtube account look like they've been deserted for over 2 years.

I'm really not personally qualified to moderate anything on here since i only created my account a short time ago to submit a h&s run, but i would like to see if it gets verified and i would generally like to see an active moderator and maybe even community.

So you could either change the current mod to a third party or make me a mod until you find a third party.

Thx for reading

@Yoho9000 I am quite unsure what your request is about. Are you requesting moderation for this game? The other moderator was active 3 days ago. How runs are handled without video is up to moderators discretion per community. Please forward your question to the active moderator.

@WilsonWildcardYT We decided to remove this board for now for various reasons. Firstly, the game itself just does not seem notable. There are already a ton of rather generic doodle jump leaderboards on SRC. The runs that were currently on there were arguably not even speedruns nor did they even reach the 1 minute mark. There are a handful of irrelevant categories on there without rules at all, along with a Highscore% category which has nothing to do with speedrunning. The current moderator is inactive without any contact methods. The whole board just seemed like a straight up mess. I propose that if a user wants to get this game resubmitted in the future, it better come with a good showcase as a speedrun along with a proper motivation as to why it should be up.

As for your future moderation requests, Liv already pointed out your only contact link (YouTube) is invalid and your account has only been 3 days old.

@Boog2TheMan He does in fact, have more than just a YouTube social link. Try messaging him on Twitch first. The game was only approved 10 days ago as well but the board seems to have not been set up so far.

@kevinkrust I'll look into it. Feel free to message me on Discord if you want to discuss this further.

@Thronior I'll send him a message on Twitch. Just because someone doesn't stream doesn't necessarily mean he wouldn't read a Twitch whisper. I suggest you also try and message him on there and get back to me with your results. If we fail to reach out to him, I'll reconsider your request.

Hello, I am a moderator for https://www.speedrun.com/kf and the supermod is https://www.speedrun.com/user/uselesshobo . Unfortunately, uselesshobo has deleted his twitch channel ( https://www.twitch.tv/datuselesshobo ) and I am unable to contact him via his twitter. I am requesting that another user be made moderator for the king's field leaderboard. https://www.speedrun.com/user/meauxdal is an active runner of king's field, and I would like if meauxdal could be made a moderator. I am no longer speedrunning king's field and do not visit speedrun.com regularly enough to approve runs. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, I'd like to request super mod for Mothlight. The leaderboard seems underdeveloped, to say the least, and I don't think TheRoc has any intentions of returning anytime soon. Although I haven't submitted a run, I've made a full route with multiple new strategies, and I feel like I would be fit as a moderator.

@Liv just got wr, ill upload and submit soon

Hi, I would like to request to be made a moderator on FUEL (https://www.speedrun.com/FUEL). I've tried messaging the current moderator on various social media platforms with no response and the moderator hasn't been active on here for a month. Thanks.

I would like to request to become a moderator for Factory Balls 4. The moderators @Neobubzy amd @MikuRuns have been inactive for 2 months and 6 months respectively. I have 12 unverified runs (11 IL categories and one full game category) because of their inactivity. I have read both moderation guidelines, and I feel capable of the task

Likewise, I would like moderator for Zerg Rush Google Easter Egg. @PiroGaming1734, @darwall15, and @tenall17 have all been inactive for almost a year.

Hi, I have a somewhat weird request.

I want you to remove a moderator from "Factorio" called "Xedre". He had been Moderator since I took over the Moderation in Factorio 4 Years ago by a request in the Forum. He has never been active or moderating anything for this game in these 4 years, but requested this Game at the very beginning. I don't even know him. Since he is still listed as the first Moderator, but isn't responsible for anything, he's possibly better of removed to prevent the case of any user contacting him for a request.
