For what leaderboard? Does that leaderboard even need mods? Most games only need 1, MAYBE 2 mods. @Sewiferos

G'day! I'm here to request replacing the moderator for https://www.speedrun.com/Adams_Drive_32 due to the fact that he is no longer active, I'm currently waiting to have a world record approved but I do not foresee that happening anytime soon as he has had no activity on the website in almost a year. If I could take his place that would be great, thank you! ^^

Hey Wipeoutjack it's like that show I was on the city round was the hardest and painfulest but it was fun and my date was nice but mean on the show! Can I have a reward for posting? Can I be granted money? I'm a little broke at the mo lol.

Hello guys, is there a Moderator that can help me with my request? I've sent a new SMB3 hack so more people can speedrunning it. But it seems that the game should be in a specific series. Could Moderators please help by assigning my hack to the correct series? This is my hack: https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/3438/ And its respective run: https://www.facebook.com/ramheroe/videos/565237400625060/

Thanks in advance,

Hi, I would like to be removed from being a moderator on the Sin and Punishment leaderboards (https://www.speedrun.com/sandp) and add BostonBrew (https://www.speedrun.com/user/BostonBrew) as a mod, thank you.

acetrainereddie: Since this seems to be an ongoing issue over the course of multiple months, and you have a run pending about a month, I'll add you. Noting this thread: https://www.speedrun.com/Soda_Dungeon/thread/tt2rq

bartaan: Since it's been 3 weeks and then a week since the mod said he'd do it, I messaged one of the NES runners who handles a bunch of boards seeing if he'd be willing to help with that one. We'll see if that works, else I can look at adding you.

v1valvanerth: The forums seem active and the mod is highly inactive, so alright. I'd recommend adding another mod or two if people are willing.

TweniThree: User doesn't appear to have a run and isn't very active. Okay.

Zecc: I'm somewhat trusting you that this is the general consensus of the other moderators. If it turns out there is disagreement on who should be the super mods, we might move things around later.

SewiFeros: I don't quite understand what you're asking. New games on the site are approved based on the guidelines in the game request form. This forum thread is for people asking to moderate existing games on the site. People moderate specific games.

DuskyLW: User is not around, added.

Wipeoutjack7: I moved things around due to inactivity.

ramheroe: New game requests should go through the game request form here: https://www.speedrun.com/requestgame

Duns: You should be able to self remove (unless there's some bug I'm not aware of, please let me know) I will remove you, but the super mod should decide if he wants to add more moderators, and who, if you're disinvolving yourself. I'd recommend discussing it with him and/or on the game forums.

Hey. It officially been a month and the game moderator for the SMW hack MARIO (https://www.speedrun.com/MARIO) has yet to verify my run. He still has not been online for over two months. I think it would be best if I were to be the moderator for that game as I am more active and pretty good at it too.

Not only that, but it's also been more than a month and the moderator for the game Swing Copters (https://www.speedrun.com/swingcopters) had yet to verify my run on death% for that game. I think I should become moderator of that game as well as I have the app and I play that game pretty often.

Make sure you guys mention how you contacted the mod to tell them about the pending run and/or ask them if you can help with verifying or modding. If you are able to.

It might be another week or so til staff checks the topic and you don't want to have missed a step and have to wait again :)

@6oliath He doesn't have any contact info. For proof check his profile @Flutter

@ChrisPatrol Sorry to post here, I'm not a site mod and can't directly meet your request. Here's a few other things that you can try:

  1. Join the ETS Discord: https://discord.gg/eJTJPrE and ask the mod on one of the channels, or DM them since you'll share a mutual server.

  2. Submit a run! It's very rare that a leaderboard is managed by a non-runner.

  3. Share your ideas on "getting the game up to scratch" with the community, either in the Discord or the game's forums.

I tried to DM you this on Discord to keep it off this channel, but it seems like your Discord info on your own site profile is out of date, ironically.

Hello, the moderator for https://www.speedrun.com/Dangeresque Has not been active for 6 months, and just to be safe I waited for 3 weeks to see if they would come on. I would like to replace the moderator, or if there is a different idea for what to do. Thank you.

Hi, could you please switch the mod's on https://www.speedrun.com/the_mall_obby to make @TheBronzeSword be super mod and @randomphoenix03 a mod? Also could @randomphoenix03 be a mod instead of a super mod in https://www.speedrun.com/bcsw since he is 30(+) days inactive

Hi, the 2 moderator from the game "love" ( https://www.speedrun.com/LOVE/full_game ) have been inactive for the past 3 month and 1 years. I could contact one of the two mod but i feel like it would be pointless due to the way he handled the leaderboard. The leaderboard doesn't need run verification so it doesn't have video requirement either. The run with no video have no screenshot either. The mod that i can contact also do not have any proof of his run.

I'd like to be moderator of the game to remove these run with no proof and to add more category and IL

I also have done a run for Color My Heart (https://www.speedrun.com/Colour_my_Heart) 2 months ago by now. After one 3 weeks I contacted him on Twitch with no response. Then I tried Discord but I couldn't seem to get a response there. I have waited for two months and I think it's a good idea to just give the moderation to me as the run was actually a WR so I am definitely good enough to be the new moderator.
