Ryedawg's submission

Did I say chat? I meant in general, even I mistype occasionally, but yeh that was a dick comment. I don't like you. I don't want you in my chat. Cry on a forum about it, ah you did it before I could even suggest it. You can lie and say false things all you want anywhere else, I am sorry you won't be able to in my chat. Gotta wonder how you so quickly realised you were banned though...

Just gotta say, I think it likely that you dislike me because I didn't watch your video defending me and I said repeatedly that I have no idea who you are but at least we will have those fond memories.

I found out because I was messaged by others saying they were banned so I went to see for myself, but nice try. I don't give a shit about talking in your chat lmfao especially when all it's gonna be is you bitching about people who are better than you because they play offline. Go make some more patreon incentives before the repo guys come out take your sofa away.

Also sorry for the "dick comment", snowflake

What I will say is that if a runner is following the rules of the leaderboard, then they should be allowed to participate in the leaderboard. Personal grievances and beef off-site shouldn't be brought into factor. If they're caught cheating, report them to the site moderators. If the run doesn't follow the rules, then reject it. There really isn't any other reason a user should be restricted from submitting their runs.

Also, @ryedawg, do not spam posts in topics. Whilst you claimed your spam was due to your laggy internet connection, there is a 16 minute gap I can see in the logs between the first time you posted the message in question, and the last time the message was posted. It was spammed at 06:45:15 roughly 10 times to begin with, then again at 07:02:45. I know this simply isn't because of 'laggy connection' because in between these two time periods you made totally separate posts in the same topic. Do not spam in future, or your privileges of posting in the forums will be taken away.

If you didn't troll so much maybe, just maybe people would take what you said seriously and you wouldn't feel the need to spam like a half wit jacked up on cocaine.

Regardless all of this drama you all create just saying doesn't create a very welcoming environment for potential speedrunners. Was considering learning the run for this as my first speedrunning game but decided against it for this very reason. All you guys do is backstab one another. Literally have not seen so much drama since high school and that's saying something. Happy I am learning Fable Anniversary instead.

I agree but what can we do. Both step down as mods and problem solved. Leave Burhac and Demetrius as mods, they cool people and dont have problems with each other. Or in general change modding team for V. I try to as active as i can but but IRl is and will be IRL.

Toriks, I understand you have done literally nothing as moderator and never cared to be a moderator. I have however put my heart and soul into these boards and dedicated a considerable amount of time to building this community. You don't notice because the amount of time you take to consider others is about as close to zero as can be.

Shitposters who do not run the game do not contribute to discussions here. The idea that everyone from barry the butcher to larry the cable guy should be allowed to put in their two cents, clogging the boards, is just idiotic. Ryedawg spamming slanderous personal attacks against me is not "putting his opinion on the matter". No one actually believes that to be the case.

"When will you stop changing the rules to help your self out. When will you see that giving other people a handicap to keep your self relevant. We all know toriks is better than you and WR's for GTAV have always been about hardware dates was running GTAV on a PS3 with a SSD and was the only reason he had WR for so long till PC came out. so that argument is mute."

This is not "sharing an opinion". It is a false shitpost. The idea that any development on this board has to be filtered through Ryedawg, who hasn't opened the game in 3 years, is just non-sense. He literally spammed the board and then lied about it, vindicating this view. This isn't a personal bias, he has literally, on multiple occasions, disrupted discourse and deleted large sections of leaderboards. He has no value in terms of contributing because he knows nothing about the game nor does he run it. Look at how many days we have been bogged down because of one man, one non-runner, one troll. Arguing this should continue is just idiocy.

I have three jobs. Moderate the leaderboards. Build the community. Deal with Ryedawg and his sycophants who don't even run the game. I shouldn't have the third job.

Notes many times before becoming mod he doesn't want to be mod Becomes mod Every chance says he is willing to give up mod Claims to care

This doesn't follow.

For a better moderation team i would give up yes, that means i do care in that sense. Also yes thats why i didnt become one earlier but at that time there was nobody else to step in so it was us.

@ToriksLV If you don't want to be a moderator then remove yourself as one. You openly admit you don't do anything here. I will make Burhac and Demetrius a supermod and we can remove DatesL, who also does nothing here. I am the one who has had to cop the shit every time a decision has to be made. I have to answer all the questions, get the votes done etc. Regardless of how the vote goes, what I ultimately want, or how much effort I go to make things fair, I always cop shit. I deal with it because I love this speedrun and these boards. This is my life. You callously calling this moderation team bad makes me so angry you have no idea. As I said, you do nothing but consider yourself so you are blind to everything else around you. I never met someone so selfish. You don't consider what Ryedawg has done to be terrible because You. Never. Deal. With. Anything. You sit back and casually yawn while I do all the work. I put up with it because I thought we were friends, you showed me, painfully, this is not the case.

Can people stop spamming the threads/forums with posts that contribute absolutely nothing to any discussion other than to invoke a further pointless argument. From here on, this a last warning.

It's clear that at this point, this thread is just devolving into a back and forth that shouldn't even really be aired on here either way. If mods want to continue whatever discussion they were having, can you please take it to DM/Private Conversations and work out your differences?

I don't really want to see any more direct call-out threads in this manner because after this it should be clear where they end up. So, just going to lock this one for now, if you want to talk about the FPS cap rule, then vote / discuss it here: https://www.speedrun.com/gtav/thread/95aqd , without nonsensical spamming and without devolving into specifically targeting certain users. Regarding the "leaderboard ban on Ryedawg", I will discuss it with the moderators later.
