Request leaderboard moderation (Read the first post before posting!)

@Liv Who are "they" though? If there is someone else I could talk with that didn't ignore me, who would that be? And what do you deem to be a selected period of time? I came here because I believed that more than a selected period of time had already passed.

I would be happy if there were more runners that I didn't know of out there, but to me it just sounds like made up arguments to further abuse his position and delay as much as possible..

I'm kind of tired of this situation and have now mostly given up on having a proper leaderboard here. I came here and requested to moderate the board because he isn't doing it properly. But since he isn't held up to what I believe is higher standards, and seen for what he has already done, he might just as well keep doing his thing.

Requesting moderation for https://www.speedrun.com/kami

Used to be a moderator there. The current supermod got the role because I deleted my old account and they were the only other player with a run on the boards. All of their runs have since been deleted from their Youtube account, which is now filled with meme compilations. The account hasn't been on this website in over 5 months. Direct messaging, as well as several other services lead to no response or a dead end.

Hi there, I would like to request for mod for this game here https://www.speedrun.com/hsf2 as I have a run ready and submitted it but there are no moderators available and no way for it to be verified.

@Ero You need a pending run. Next to that, could you provide a motivation as to why we should add you back? Taking into consideration you previously deleted your account

@NerdyNester Okay, added.

@Neiru / @Awosomeandy There's a fair bit to consider here, but some of that belongs in another thread in the Hello Neighbor forums (which I created). For this thread's consideration, I am not going to touch Sgitch, but will demote ccrusher to a verifier as I do believe this was accidental. I will also note that this game seems to have some moderation issues, so that lends more reason for me not to touch moderation much at this time. I encourage the moderation team to look at various games on sr.c and take some notes from them in order to improve.

As a final note, having gone back through the audit log, I found a very valid run that was rejected as obsolete. I verified this run with a note that it's verified as obsolete, and I encourage the Hello Neighbor moderators to go back through their large list of rejected runs and do the same for other, perfectly-valid, runs that were rejected as obsolete. This is something that is discussed in the moderation rules. I will link them here and in the Hello Neighbor forums for your ease of viewing.

@Habreno , Thanks for replying, will try to improve my ways, and ccrusher just told me that he would prefer to be taken off of moderation as he is very inactive. Regarding Sgitch, I will keep watching him and see if he picks up moderation again, thank you again!

I am requesting moderation for Mighty Morphin Power Rangers(Game Gear). I have had a run submitted for over 3 months https://www.speedrun.com/mighty_morphin_power_rangers_gg and have another submission in as well and the moderator has not been on in over 3 months. I reached out off the website and was told they'd get to it, but that's been nearly a month ago now and they have still yet to log on.

https://www.speedrun.com/ofp_resistance#Any_Segmented There are several problems here: Game changed its name after the new steam release to ArmA: Cold War Assault (https://store.steampowered.com/app/65790/ARMA_Cold_War_Assault/) It only lists the campaign Resistance, which is not the main campaign, the main campaign is Cold War Crisis, there is also the "Red Dawn'' campaign also there are two pages for the same game, because https://www.speedrun.com/armacoldwar is the same game as OFP, just that AACWA was the re-release on steam and is the avaliable version today, so i dont know, i volunteer for modding Arma:CWA btw, i've run the game.

Cleaning up prior requests I made contact attempts on:

@Aquas Added, as they did not reply to me on twitter. @Ms_Riley_Guprz : When I come back on tonight (real life calls now) if I don't have a response I will adjust moderation for your request. I simply am out of time to watch your run to deal with your request at this immediate moment. EDIT: Added you as a regular moderator, but leaving Riley on as a super. Riley is active on the site, but your run sat for a fair bit and they didn't respond to a site message I sent them.

@Meozinho I'm not sure if this is the right place to discuss this but since I'm the moderator of https://www.speedrun.com/ofp_resistance I would like to give an explanation and my point of view.

More than 2 years ago I've made a request for creation of the speedrunning section for Operation Flashpoint since it was the game I was running back then. I was looking for a section to post my run on Speedrun.com but I couldn't find any so naturally I asked for one to be created. I had no idea they had re-released the game under a different name.

Even though the game is no longer available under its original name I have requested the name of the page to be called "Operation Flashpoint: Resistance" since that's the name the game has on my box and it's the game I'm playing. I don't know what are the differences between that and the version that's available on Steam if any. I requested the page to be only for this campaign since I didn't want to moderate every campain and single player mission for the game that has been released by the developers in base game or other expansions thinking that should there be an interest to expand the page I would have been open to it. Also I was under the impression that expansions have a separate pages (e.g. Starcraft and Starcraft: Broodwar). Some time later when I found out about the other page I saw "Arma: Cold War Assault" so I figured they run the original campaign which is called "Cold War Crisis" and I left it as it was.

Finally I'm open to reaching some sort of compromise but I would prefer to retain the original name of the game since that is the name that has made the game famous before it was "stolen" from it by the publisher.

PS: If by "Red Dawn" you meant "Red Hammer" campaign than that wasn't the part of ARMA: Cold War Assault game as it is copyrighted by Codemasters.

A few days ago I requested to be moderator for ROBLOX: Down Hill Smash as the current moderator does a horrible job managing the boards and verifying runs. It was rejected due to me not having ran the game at the time, but now I have a verified and retimed record in the game's main category, and I am requesting to be the moderator again. I'm a moderator of many other games in the series, and I watch and retime every run.

Edit: if you want to see all of the problems with the current mod, see my other post

Hello, I am looking for Floatious or I to be added as a mod for https://www.speedrun.com/wrath_of_the_black_manta Both mods have been inactive for months and have not responded to either verify runs or add us so we can. Thanks in advance.

I have submitted a run for Single Knockout of UFC 2 weeks ago and it is still not verified. I messaged the moderator but they have not responded and havent posted in a forum for around a year. Was wondering if there was anything else I can do to get verified.

@Strouse12 - Tweeted at both of the moderators, as they've both been somewhat active on Twitter. Will give them a couple days to respond.

EDIT: One responded, handled the runs.

@zir0nic - @ShikenNuggets is looking into this, per their post here.

@WiiSuper - Forwarded this on to the full moderator who's handling the game in question at this time.

@NeGAtiv4k - User is inactive but not grossly inactive. Since your runs aren't pending that long (less than a week), while I'd like to contact them I can't find a good contact for them. Ultimately, since they aren't pending very long, I will give them a couple days in case they do return.

@SubStylee - Most importantly, you do not have a pending run in this game. If @Floatious wishes to request moderator, they would need to make that request personally. Towards both of you, I would greatly appreciate if you added another method of contact to your profile, since we tend to prefer at least two forms of contact. Beyond that, Charleon has very recently uploaded a video, so I will attempt to contact them there and give them a couple days to respond, as I anticipate that it will be necessary.

EDIT: Charleon logged on and handled the runs.

@Thebeargod - You need to read the first post in this thread and fulfill the requirements we have listed there.

@BigChaz - You submitted it nine days ago, not two weeks ago. They are inactive, but only since December 2019, not a year. We check these things ;) You do not meet the requirements mentioned in the first post. In addition, the category submitted is so short I would still reject a request that met the other requirements as the run submitted does not showcase that you know the game.

@Meozinho and @Greghouse - I would advise discussing this in either game's forum rather than here. I do appreciate people talking about things; it makes our lives much easier. If you wish to get some further input from site staff on this, feel free to send us a message and we'll respond in the thread created for the issue.

@WiiSuper Series moderator or not, you need a pending run in order to become eligible for requesting moderation. Please submit one and get back to us here.

@Habreno I appreciate your response but it unfortunately didnt answer my question at all. Im not necessarily requesting for me to be moderator it was more if there was anything else I could do to get verified as I have messaged the moderator with still to no avail.

@Bigcaldo We would appreciate it if you would leave discussion between site staff and the requesting party, as also stated in the first post of this thread. With an account of only 1 day old, I would appreciate it if you would spent some time reading site rules and the first post of this thread instead of blantantly coming into this thread and stating your otherwise unwanted opinion on things.

Hello! I would like to request a moderator status for the game Tibor: Tale of a kind Vampire (https://www.speedrun.com/tibor_tale_of_a_kind_vampire). I have submitted a run over 3 weeks ago and the game's only moderator wasn't active for the last 3 months. I tried contacting him but he didn't respond so I can't get my run verified. The game also has no specific rules or info on the categories.

@zir0nic - Looks like @GeneralPikmin added you as a moderator earlier today.

@Starnyx - We can add you due to the long-term inactivity, but first you'll need to enable Email Authentication in your account settings.
