Effed Off

Archive: 66 posts


A few days ago I recieved a random add request from PSN BlAk_HaWKK_0831 wanting help with his level. I told him I didn't have time to add and help him directly and instead directed him to the Logic Packs and other various tutorials.

The rest of the day I was bombarded with messages requesting that I give him my elevator and other objects from my level, which I refused.

Today I logged on to find mulitple abusive messages sent a few hours earlier from BlAk_HaWKK_0831 and 3 other users, who I'm assuming are friends of his, threatening to repeatedly 1 Star and negatively tag my level unless I give him what he wants. Upon checking my level I noticed the rating had dropped by 2 stars and an abundance of negative tags had popped up.

I had no other choice but to block, report them and lock my level. I'm highly effed off that this kind of BS is still rampant within the community. This is pretty much the reason I abandoned my old PSN account and started fresh.


What do I do. Publish my levels locked so only friends can play them or put up with the personal vendettas of other players?

Can't tell if this is rhetorical or not, but I'd say you're gonna have to put up with it, unfortunately. I'm surprised that three individuals could have such a dramatic effect on your level rating, unless you literally just published it, and it has fewer than 10 or so plays.

Bah, other idiots that join the game eh?

Sigh...
Sadly, the most effective way to fight these kind of idiots ois by backfiring and back threathening everyone of the people thatsent you hateful PMs (sometimes they just think they can do whatever because they're not the main threat, so thretening them usually stops their action) to stop with same penalties if not done, overpowering them, tho its not 100% safe as it might start a "war" oer say, but if extremely overpowered, the other party usually stops very quickly.
Also a lot of times they do whatever they want because people think they'll stand there and take the threats, that's another why back threathening them might work as well.
Tho i know this is not a site that would approve of that idea, so the only other tip i can give you is to keep repoting them to both Mm and SONY, but other than that, don't know how else to help you with.

Rose...since I'm a fan of your levels, I take this attack a little personally.

So I've just one-star rated all of BlAk_HaWKK_0831's levels and tagged them as lousy, rubbish and boring.

His pathetic attempts at level building didn't deserve any better than that anyway.

The sad thing about that though is that if the person had even tried the slightest he could of easily done what he wanted. I mean an elevator,
1. there not that difficult to do
and 2. You directed him to the logic pack and did I make this up or is on of the logic pack tutorials, How to make an elevator.

I feel sorry for you that you took the brunt of this but seriously, if these guys are such Aholes like that then they are playing the wrong game.
They should go play gears of war or something and just give them players abuse, it would be pretty funny seeing them getting chainsawed in half every 5 minutes.


Rant over...... that one tired me out.

I think you need to call in someone who can give you a little "favour". Someone who loathes idiots.....well, all excluding himself...
Someone who knows how to plague people who H4H and kill off LBP players like Cluck Donalds, AKA Jeriko (I suggest barbecue flavour, just incase you feel peckish...).
Dont worry. The red stains wear off after a while.

BUT...

On a more serious note, if i was being attacked by someone, i would ignore him. I wouldn't be too bothered about it to be completely honest, as my levels only have 20 plays or so, and they arent that good. But still, i do try to make good levels, and i'd pretty much do all of the above to pillage whoever did it.

If you ever feel extremely down, i can cheer you up. I know the way to the fun.

Another quick note- you MIGHT want to get a rug to put over the stains, just incase the police come.

I think if 412 people rate it 1 star. That'd be awesome. And why haven't I got round to rating it 1 star yet?

Also, everyone upload poo onto all his levels for teh lolz :hero:!

RANDOM INTERVENTION!
Lol this sounds like a good cause - I've never played any of your levels but I really don't like haters as I myself had to move PSN accounts as someone called "SUDS" spammed my level and dropped it to a 3 star... AND THAT MADE ME MAD. Oh and I'll rate this guys levels down 4 ya as well.

I'm with CrazeAlek's and Ungreth's ideas.
It's like black hawk and his friends are acting like bullies on the school yard, trying to steal the brains of a genius. Of course, that genius and many others have supporters, who are going to smash those black hawk levels off the cool pages!

I've never been the victim of this kind of behavior, but LBP is plagued with immature individuals. It really does irritate me.

But I am not going to go rate his levels low, even though one part of me wants to. The side of me that says that is not a healthy/mature resolve is winning.

Blocking and reporting him is all I can say. However, I can go rate your levels 5 stars to help get them back up.

I'm not sure whether anyone has mentioned this, but you can't spam rate. You can spam TAG (play over and over again and choose different tags), but each person can only rate a level once - so unless you rate someone's level when it has very few plays, a few people can't really do much damage to a rating.

If a few people 5 star rate your level, such as s3xNstilettos, it will undo any damage they may have caused.

Lets be immature and reduce to their level!
Wooo!

Come on people, forget thinking of another good rational solution, lets just do what they do, no matter how degrading it might be!

Yeah, that outta teach them!

Eye for an eye, even if the whole world goes blind, they'll be blind as well, right?

I've heard that from a few people too (but never heard of any tests) that it only records your last rating.

Easy to test if you have two PSN accounts. Build a locked level on one account, send a key to the other, and see how the overall rating changes each time you re-rate it.

I'd guess it probably only remembers your last rating, but that's just speculation. It would allow you to artificially increase the number of 'plays' which might push it further up the 'cool' levels pages (a.k.a. bomb survival pages).

Heres what i do (Even tho it breaks rules)
i create a fake moderator account (SOLEY FOR GOOD)
and i have a chat with these nooblets... telling them if they continue with their blatant harassment of a player, their IP adress will be banned from the playstation network.

It works 80% of the time 100% of the time.
But the fake moderator account is never used for anything bad. EVER.

This will probably work. But ONLY you do it, if everyone messaged them... well that would be a tad suspicious...

I know CCubbage has, and I have too. The sytem records the last rating you put on and that is all.

@silverleon: thank god someone posted that: I was beginning to lose track of whether it was the wider community or LBPC that are the more immature group. It's still pretty close tho

Totally sure. Did a LOT of testing on it. Each person can only rate once per PSN, so it's virtually impossible for a single person to destroy a rating once there are a substancial amount of plays.

EDIT.... rtm got in there right before me.

Him: My mom is reading this for me. please, i'm only 8.

Me: In order to create an account you must be at least 13 years of age. (Idk...)

Oh, dear lord! I've just revisited this thread since my last post, and it looks like I've instigated a hate-campaign of sorts, which really wasn't my intention.

:blush:

Just because I got a little hot under the collar and down-rated this idiot's levels, that doesn't mean you all need to follow suit and form a lynch mob. Yeah sure, I'm 35 years old...but I don't always conduct myself with impeccable maturity. It was a knee-jerk reaction that in retrospect could have potentially caused more problems than it solved. So please everybody...if you really want to throw down the gauntlet here then just follow the suggestion to up-rate Rose's levels rather than taking an eye for an eye.

m'kay?

I'm not sure this is the best course of action.......He may be annoying and curse, etc. but repeating the same behavior back to him is not going to make him stop. That conversation was amusing but once he realizes he's in no danger, he will continue doing the same behavior. I'm not sure what the best solution is at this time but ignoring/blocking him is a start. To avoid difficult situations like this in the future, I'd advise not to accept random friend requests. Some people overreact when you tell them you're busy.

Hmm... seems as though I'm not needed this time around. That's good ^_^.

This sorta reminds me of when Icey's levels were copied (which also started an uproar). Thankfully, the copy-cat faded into obscurity and nothingness. All went back to normal.

If he was just bombarding you with messages, just send him back a nasty letter. I remember doing this on MW2 a few days ago (it was about noob-tubing or something), and the lil' whiner hasn't lashed back yet .

Don't worry, I'm sure he'll get bored and bother someone else (or Josh scared him out of it) soon enough so you don't have to do anything drastic.

(I would've made the lil' brat cry to his momma. :kz

Sadly, the most effective way to fight these kind of idiots ois by backfiring and back threathening everyone of the people thatsent you hateful PMs (sometimes they just think they can do whatever because they're not the main threat, so thretening them usually stops their action) to stop with same penalties if not done, overpowering them, tho its not 100% safe as it might start a "war" oer say, but if extremely overpowered, the other party usually stops very quickly.
Also a lot of times they do whatever they want because people think they'll stand there and take the threats, that's another why back threathening them might work as well.
Tho i know this is not a site that would approve of that idea, so the only other tip i can give you is to keep repoting them to both Mm and SONY, but other than that, don't know how else to help you with.
