There is no site-wide policy for this case; different game moderators will handle it differently. So check with the moderators of the game you ran. Alternatively, you can just submit your run to both of the categories - worst case is that one will be rejected.
As I said, no one in the general forums can help you. The issues need to be presented to the game moderators and the game community, and they can decide best if a run is cheated or not. If the moderators decide to ban someone for cheating, then they can personally contact site staff to report the cheater. Not you as someone who don't even have a run in the game.
If the top buttons show as emojis, that means the page didn't load properly. If that happens, the moderator functionality will probably not work either. So try to refresh the page until it's loaded without issues. By the way, this happened to me on desktop a few times, usually at peak hours of people using the site.
As for ads, the only advice I can give is to use adblocker, or the "Brave" browser.
You need to removed the default property of the "Character" and "Character Card" variables, and the issue will be solved. In general, you will want to use this "default" property only on subcategories.
At this point, I can detect this problem in my sleep...
If you have any suspicions about a cheated run, contact the game moderators about it first. We in the general forums can't help, as we don't have knowledge about the game.
Also, have you tried asking the runner or one of the moderators about the run, before throwing accusations? I see you don't have any runs in Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts, so I don't know what is your knowledge of the game. Maybe something looks wrong to you but it has a good explanation.
Following the thread by Ero about not being able to create guides for games: There should be a notice for big site updates that change functionality in any way. I'm not talking about plans for future updates, but changes you already uploaded to the site - things like this guides permission update, the older update that limited forum posts at 1000 characters, and so on.
We - the runners, game moderators, and general users - need to know about the existence of those updates; not discover them by accident, and then thinking there are new bugs on the site.
It appears that there is a new silent update - only game moderators can add new guides, apparently. You can edit guides if you created them before this new update.
Edit: I'd like to point out to Elo, that if this was done intentionally, then this is a really bad decision. Runners can help in finding and improving routes, tricks, skips, game mechanics and so on; and the guides section is the right place to post those. I don't see how allowing only game-moderators to post guides will help anyone.
I might understand if it will be required of the runner to have a verified run first (like the requirement before adding new game-resources). But not completely locking them out.
Is this the new don't break the chain thread?
