This week, we’re working on further moderation techniques for comments to help improve the comment experience while also implementing some design modifications requested by the community.
#Critical ops clan leaderboard update
We want to remit appreciation for the issues this update created when it was released, and we hope these changes will result in a more enjoyable and secure experience, according to Speedrun in its moderation post.
Les plans for bug fixes will allow runners to make decisions on their runs and moderate comments globally. The new sites, which are being considered as a result of their new improvements, were revealed on Tuesday and will help staff reduce mass spam on single runs as well as spam spanning the entire leaderboard. After removing his runs from the site, LiquidWifi and other moderators developed the concept to create a blackout on the site.ĭespite the fact that it had been a bit unsettling for Speedrun users, the site admins were apparently aware of the issue and have planned on releasing incremental bug fixes to its moderation process. My runs were removed from the respective communities, according to LiquidWifi. Things got worse, since speedrunners within Kingdom Hearts, Doom, and Fallout communities started shipping their data from the site in an attempt to leave the platform behind in an attempt to preserve runs outside of the website. Elo, a website owner, should be reprimanded for this, he stated in response to the group’s acquisition by Pac by Elo Entertainment in October 2020. The lack of content moderation tools is certainly a mistake I’d expect from a 2000’s internet forum creator, not something happening in this day and age, he adds. He claims that the blame went untrue to the sites owners. On each run on his Simpsons Hit & Run leadershipboards, some of these posts included death threats, slurs, and borderline illegal pornographic cartoon images.Īccording to LiquidWiFi, it wasn’t easy to remove a user’s posts from the website at first. Despite being small enough to include members, the group managed to produce 4,000 of the same posts across the website. He began receiving spam from a small group of people whom they were banned from participating in his chat within hours. In protest of the controversy over LiquidWifi’s speedruns, the sites’ most popular streamer since 2014, has removed all his speedruns from the website.Īccording to LiquidWiFi, the comments he received began out innocuously with memes and harmful posts from his community. To make matters worse, comments apparently didn’t have a cooldown and allow for image embedding.īut speedrunners who were dragged down by this didn’t sit idly. That initiative allowed bad faith users to create new accounts and spam the same comments at a time. Obwohl they could delete comments and stop users, offensive comments weren’t deleted automatically. According to Speedrun, the commenting feature was meant to enhance the community’s social interaction at the time.ĭespite the fact that the sites update seems to be well-intentioned, speedrunners and moderators didn’t have much control over the comments on their own videos. There’s a comment section in which people can post messages responding to the content under that video. When players upload a video to the site, Speedrun creates a dedicated page with the video. As a result, some speedrunners and moderators on the site had a strike.
Besoever, those confronted by this problem cannot reduce the garbage. Depuis son adoption, users have been left with a variety of vulgar comments and inappropriate images.
Speedrun, a site where leaderboards top the fastest players for any given game, recently added a commenting feature that hasn’t been achieving any kind of bad news for anyone.
