Maybe "read the first post" or "last resort thread" should be tacked onto the end of the thread's title?

I'm not trying to be facetious. It's realistic to expect people to read the first post before continuing, but many people aren't.

What was the result? I can see that it hasn't happened, but was it discussed?

Hi I Submited a run to http://www.speedrun.com/The_Goonies 100% I left a msg in the forum tried to contact the mod, and still nothing. I submitted the run over a month and a half ago. Can someone make me a mod of that game and I will take care of verifying runs.

g0goTBC: Since your runs still haven't been verified and you have a bunch of runs I'll add you.

zergreenone: I'll ask them to dig into the database to look at this. I can't see anything pertaining to this through the site interface. If you deleted the rejected runs, it makes checking this more difficult. Last I checked moderators couldn't delete runs, if that isn't true after the updates, someone should let me know.

IFanGames: You were added by someone that wasn't me.

DonkeyKongGenius: If mods are active, you should discuss with them. This thread is for handling cases where people are inactive or there are substantial issues.

kobepilgrim: I can't manually edit topic titles, I think it has to be done through the database. If someone wants to rewrite the first post to be more clear, I can look at updating it.

Lastsincommited: Ok added.

jambu5ter: Since the moderator is really inactive I added you. Site staff doesn't verify runs, only game moderators.

@kirkq I'm seeing an option to Edit, Delete, Reject runs on pages I'm a moderator for.

@GhostScit - Mods aren't expected to verify runs every time they are online. 4 days is still within a reasonable time frame. If you think that they may have accidentally skipped over your run then please contact one of the active mods on their social media accounts, Twitter usually being the most reliable.

This is a last resort thread, and is only meant to be used once you have expended all other resources to get your run verified.

Can I be made a moderator of the Hello Kitty series? I requested to get 2 games (Hello Kitty Kruisers and Hello Kitty and Sanrio Friends Racing) added about a week ago, and have got no response from the current lone series mod. I've tried contacting him via twitter and twitch also but still haven't got any response.

Update: I got a reply on twitter. The bloke doesn't even think you can add a game to a series as a series mod.

@Jezs only admin can approve games to be added to this site.... not series mod....

@Deln Series mods can add new games, as long as the game is part of the existing series.

The admin approves the game series, series mods then add games to the series.

The series mods can add the games to the series, however the games have to be added to the site by a site admin first. The games you want added to the series don't exist on the site yet. If you put the series they are a part as part of the request, then they should be added to the series automatically.

In short, wait for your requests to go through. They should be in the series when they're added.

That explains a lot (empty, inactive, etc.)

Any chance I could be added as a mod for NOT A HERO? Been hanging on an approval for over a month and haven't been able to contact mod. http://www.speedrun.com/run/0y62kn1z

Hi, I know you say it is about around 3 weeks for a moderator innactivity, but for the game Sid Meier's Civilization IV (http://www.speedrun.com/Sid_Meiers_Civilization_IV) every time a run, is post, it can take from 2 weeks to a month every time. I am one of the most active player on the thread and I find it pretty annoying. Since the mod that is ''the most active'' doesn't have Twitch and the other two aren't connected for month, could you please check this game out and maybe make me mod?

Good morning misters and mistresses!

I'm adding this post to the thread for explaining my situation. There. I'm one of the remaining runners of Jade Cocoon: Story of the Tamamayu leaderboard, and the moderator in charge of it - JackOfHearts - is absent since August 8th (not that long...but still).

Leaderboard link : http://www.speedrun.com/jadecocoon

I have two submissions for one of the two category, pending for near two weeks (a bit less for the most recent) and the specifity is both are 1st place times (one will become obsolete, and the other one, the fastests I got). There is also the other active runner who submitted a guide for beginners, to help promote the game and the speedroute of it.

My question would be the following : would it be possible to make someone check this submission in the place of JackOfHearts? And/or, would it be possible for me to apply as moderator for the leaderboard alongside JackOfHearts to avoid that problem in the near future?

Thanks in advance for taking my post into consideration. Have a fabulous day.
