HELP!!!! I'm Under Attack!!!

Archive: 27 posts


Hidy Ho Sackfriends! While I was in Hong Kong last weekend I had the huge pleasure of having Now and Then banned for the 3rd time. I actually didn't think too much of it, because it's already been banned and Cambridge was so good at sorting it out last time that I figured it would be back up by now.

Well, I woke up in the morning, hoping to find that all was well, and instead LOST AT SEA IS BANNED AS WELL!?!?

What is going on? Is Sony just banning every level that gets griefed now? I was confident that nothing was ever wrong with Now and Then, but I am even more confident that nothing is wrong with Lost at Sea.

On a side note: Remember that Cambridge has nothing to do with this craziness, and this is not their fault at all. Sony is in charge of the ban monster. I just wanted to point that out since Cambridge has been EXCELLENT about sorting things out in the past, so they certainly shouldn't be blamed for this :-)

So how is everyone else's day going

This is goiing out of control.
I'm very sorry to hear this happening to you.
Especially the fact that these levels had so many hearts and plays.
Don't you hate it when you gain a lot of hearts, but then you end up losing them all?

I don't know how to help out, but I'm very sorry this happened in the first place.
I liked Lost at Sea.

I don't get it.
Why would someone ban it or for what reason would they ban you for?
I'm sorry that this has happened again, and I hope things get sorted out.

Well, there is good news :-) I don't think that I will lose the hearts and plays. Both times that Now and Then was unbanned I didn't lose my data.

BTW, I've already gotten the ball rolling for getting the right people notified, so hopefully this will be sorted out soon :-)

I just had the pleasure of playing Lost at Sea today before it was banned (lucky for me), and there's nothing wrong with it. I don't know why your levels are being banned, but it's unfair and unjust.2010-03-30 04:19:00

It's sad to hear that. Your levels are epic, a must-play for every LBP PSP player. I hope you sort this out soon...2010-03-30 17:03:00

Its really sad that thats happening on LBP now. That has also been a problem on the game Spore. Many of the best creators have had to re-upload at least half of there 100s of creations. It's just people who are jealous.2010-03-30 19:54:00

I'm not even really sure there's any jealousy involved. Knowing what I know about teh internets, I think they're just doing it for the lulz.

I really have no idea what the heck is up with all this. Poo, you really do have the patience of a saint.

The only thing I can think of is that somehow, somewhere, the "poo" part of your PSN is being translated into a less socially acceptable synonym in a different language.

Don't worry, I'm sure it will be my turn eventually.

Thanks for all the kind words guys! I can't believe how great everyone is on this site :-) I have great news (at least for me )! Both Now and Then and Lost at Sea where back up on the Community Moon when I woke up this morning!

Thanks so much for the support everyone!

BTW, it's great to have you back thessweet

I wish they were copyable so I could copy them to my moon. That way I could play them even if they were banned. But then again, they're such high caliber levels, I'm positive someone would take credit for them then.2010-03-31 02:36:00

I find it funny how there are so many scorpion and glockenpop infested levels out there, and they always choose to ban yours!2010-03-31 13:16:00

I hate Glokenpop! Why do people like that song, it's like listening to the LBP VERSION OF HANNAH MONATANA
(Although I enjoy here voice.... SIKE!!!!)

And for those scorpians, I've noticed, why do people put so many in one level, they're annoying!
Dam, why does this game point towards many children creators.

It's really about sticker use. You see, "Lost at Sea" and "Now and Then" both used letter stickers arounf the levels. Someone can just go on their popit and spell something that Cambridge would believe the auhtor made.

To be more specific, the Good Grief form takes a snapshot of the level (really Cambridge? I mean, can't we have that snapshot option, now?) and it's sent to Cambridge for inspection. So someone can spell out "SONY SUCKS ****!" in the level, then submitted to Cambridge for them to ban the level.

So the lesson here: avoid using too many Letter stickers.

Even if the creator has no letter stickers at all, the player could still place letter stickers as long as there's a surface area large enough to fit them.

Not really. When playing a level, the level won't let you access all your stickers. Instead, it let's you access the stickers the Creator used (which is sometimes helpful for those who want to know what the stickers were and detail observations).

So, players can't use letter stickers unless the Creator himself/herself used them in the level at least once.

Hmmm.... Thanks for that bit of info Cyber! I had never thought of that! From what Cambridge has says, when someone take a shot, it will specify if the sticker was placed by the author of the level or by the person who is playing the level, but if they are just re-arranging the stickers then maybe it would show up as the author to the person who is moderating..... Hmmmmm.... I might just not use the big sticker intro on my next level....2010-04-02 02:48:00

I think that kid is jealous or somethin.
It got banned again? Lost at sea was the first LBPC level i ever played.
Well lets hope that kid wont ban more of your levels.
