  1. Hello "TheLions".
  2.  
  3. First of all, you should know that having an alternate account on Speedrun.com is a bannable offense, as stated on the rules: https://www.speedrun.com/rules.
  4. I also have to say that you, "TheLions" presenting yourself as "The community" is not exactly a smart choice. I don't know if you are just a group of 5-6 people or if you are 40 of the 50 runners registered on the Easy category. If I were you, I would make something like a signed petition, with the names of the people involved. That way, it would make your statement more representative and clear.
  5.  
  6. Regarding each topic of the document:
  7.  
  8. 1) Making Easy the default category. Uhm, I don't really have a problem with this one. I will change it in the following days. Hopefully no one will be strongly opposed...
  9.  
  10. 2) Normal out of Misc: I already stated my views about this in the previous pastebin. I guess you can start some kind of voting system that shows that "The community" as a whole actually wants this but I'm not convinced by the arguments ("It's on the Genesis LB" and "It's the default difficulty") presented in your document.
  11.  
  12. 3) Additions to leaderboards: "easy WR" is not the only or the main argument I presented in my pastebin about this subject. Please read it again.
  13.  
  14. 4) Individual levels: if you want to run IL, please do so and upload your video in your personal channel. Please think about why other games on speedrun.com don't have IL in their leaderboards.
  15.  
  16. Ok, about the next group of subjects, some of them posted on the forum following your post:
  17.  
  18. -I have never thought or said that moderating TLK is too much work. Please keep in mind that I moderate other 20 games on this website. Honestly, is not even that demanding.
  19.  
  20. -I have read the moderation rules multiple times. I also, believe it or not, take the time to read every single message posted on TLK Discord that I can see with my current permissions/roles.
  21.  
  22. -About adding more moderators: I have said in various instances that if you want to be a mod of TLK, you can ask for mod in the "Request leaderboard moderation" thread on the main forums. Of course, this implies that you need to present a pretty good argument as to why you (an individual, by the way) wants to be a mod.
  23.  
  24. -There is an easier method to be a mod: to be added by another mod. As of right now, some people that I would add are: Akiteru, TheMexicanRunner, Fonzoide, LuizMiguel. If any of them really want to be a mod, I would happily add them.
  25.  
  26. -In the TLK forums, two people have been mentioned as candidates to be a mod: Nichole and PlayingWithDick. Nichole already used the forum mentioned above to ask for moderation and it was not granted. Regarding PlayingWithDick, I helped him recently to setup his first leaderboard moderation: TLK MSDOS, he is now the sole mod. I think he could be a good candidate in the future, but not right now. As you can see, my candidates to moderation in SNES are people with a lot more experience, both in TLK and about speedrunning in general.
  27.  
  28. -About DCG: thanks to the input of BinaryDragon, and some members of the community, the result was the creation of the Misc. category for it.
  29.  
  30. -The rules have been updated at least 4 times since last year.
  31.  
  32. Hope this helps. Good luck.
