Hi, I would like to mod the game P.O.W.: Prisoners of War (NES) https://www.speedrun.com/p.o.w._prisoners_of_war#Any

There was only one mod and recently they deleted their account. The game currently has no mods.

Hi there, Shrek 2 (GBA) is currently modless with 2 runs after user "Ted" was banned. I've asked Smartalec (WR holder) on discord if I can take mod as it's a game I have future interest in and as he has none he gave me the go ahead.

Hello! A few weeks ago I saw a request was made by someone to get modship on Baseball Stars which was denied as the mod had been around recently-ish. He's now been gone for at least a month, and I know folks have runs pending for pretty near the full month. I've been starting to run this game myself, tho I've not had a time I'm happy enough with to submit(especially knowing there's more than one new WR pending), but I was wondering if you might now be willing to grant myself or Schmidtty_Games a moderator role on that game? I feel we'd get more people active if new runs were actually being posted. Thank you for your time, I greatly appreciate it.

@Liv thanks for adding me as a mod for https://www.speedrun.com/play_with_the_teletubbies , however I think I messed something up a bit in my first mod actions. I edited the category rules and sub-categories, and doing this removed the WR run that was previously there. I can't find that old run in the audit logs to add it back, and I don't know the guy's username so can't contact him. Is there a way to restore it?

@Chimp This seems fine; added

@AaronCR I'll try to get ahold of the moderator and give them a couple of days to respond.

@cheekychunk Could you please provide a run of said game? We don't necessarily want to add moderators who we can't verify having any connection with the game they are requesting.

@zanth Please provide a run of the game you are requesting first.

@MyOhMyke Please resubmit your game request and add this info in the 'additional info' box.

@MrAtilla Have you contacted the other moderators about your concerns? You can message them and ssjhenrick through their social media contacts. They might've missed your posts in the forum. 2 of the 3 moderators aren't considered inactive, please try to resolve the issue with them first as this is a last resort thread.

Hi there. Recently the moderator of Shrek 2 GBA was banned from speedrun.com, and currently the page has no moderator. I have the world record for the game and I am requesting mod for the game.

I was fine with cheekychunk moderating the page, but since he hasn't done runs yet, we talked and we're both comfortable with me being the page moderator.

@Seydie ok, and thanks for responsing me

@Seydie I have now submitted a run in the Single Game Victory Category for Baseball Stars. If you would be more comfortable with someone who is already a mod, Schmidtty_Games had previously requested moderator status, and has said(to me) that he is still willing to do it. Either way, we just want runs to get submitted and category splits made! Thank you for your time!

Edit: I also have now submitted a time for League, which beats the current WR(barring other pending submissions, of course)

I would like to request to be a moderator in Race Driver: Grid https://www.speedrun.com/grid

The game currently has 2 mods. I was unable to contact the current super mod emkay and he hasn't connected to the site in over 4 months and his last activity that I could find was over 2 years ago when he approved a run.

I was able to contact the regular mod JV through reddit and got him to add me on discord too. He approved my first run but after that I haven't been able to contact him neither on reddit nor discord at all, despite seeing him online on discord and having frequent log-ins on this site. Perhaps JV has a lack of interest for moderating Grid nowadays, if I had to guess. Either way, I have some runs pending for over 21 days and I'm keen on continuing to run the game a lot more in the future and help improve the leaderboards.

I'd like to request becoming a moderator of https://www.speedrun.com/flat_heroes. The only current moderator, https://www.speedrun.com/user/Cl0wnslayer/info, has not handled a pending submission for over a month, and furthermore, was last online 7 months ago. Their linked media includes Twitch (not responding), Twitter (DM's closed), Youtube (deleted), Discord (not responding), Steam (not accepting friend request), and website (dead link). Since Flat Heroes has undergone significant changes since any other runs, I would also like to update the leaderboard rules (according to RFMX's comments here: https://www.speedrun.com/flat_heroes/thread/3vhx2). If given moderator status, I could update them myself.

@zanth @Seydie I'm sorry I never followed up on this. The Zelda 2 Tournaments have been sapping much of my free time.

At current, there are at least four runners with runs holding for Baseball Stars that I am aware of, including multiple world records. There is also a category restructure proposal that the community would like to see done. We really need an active representative. Anyone you choose will likely be fine, but both zanth and myself are capable of doing the work should you choose someone from within the community.

Thank you for your time!

Hello, I have more of a question rather than a request, but I couldn't find a better place to ask. I've been trying to get into running custom maps in the Minecraft Series (https://www.speedrun.com/minecraft) but as far as I can tell most of the mods aren't verifying runs. Console versions of the game as well as Hypixel server parkour have frequent verification activity, but they're being run by different people. The main moderators in charge of Minecraft don't appear to be verifying. I've had a run pending in Wrath of the Fallen (https://www.speedrun.com/mcm_wotf) for over 3 months. I've messaged the admins in the discord multiple times with no response. I've also seen other messages about similar topics go unaddressed in the discord as well, most of which have been completely ignored. Only one request for verification got a reply, but they were basically told no. Interestingly, the mods aren't inactive, as they are frequently online. However, there appears to be a significant amount of neglect with the Minecraft leaderboards. I'm not personally asking for mod, as I feel it's a responsibility of someone with more time to devote to keeping the boards up-to-date, and someone more known in the community. However, without bringing it up I feel like it's not going to change. I'm not exactly sure what to do in this situation.

Hello, my runs submitted to the Snowboard Kids leaderboard ( https://www.speedrun.com/sbk ) 19-23 days ago still haven't been verified. Although I am a verifier myself, I waited for a Mod to look over them because I didn't want to have to verify my own runs. The game's Super Mod has been inactive for over a year with the other Mod being inactive for 3 months. I recently messaged said Mod over discord and am still awaiting a response. I'd like to request Super Mod privileges for myself, as I think that there is a need for more active personnel that are able to verify runs and make calls concerning rules, categories, etc.

Thank you very much in advance!
