second psn

Archive: 24 posts


while I'm still at 18 levels on my main psn, I'm sure that eventually (especially when lbp2 comes out) I'll grow beyond my allocated 20 slots of origional moon-space. I imagine that many creators have allready begun to expand into their second moon under a different PSN.

So, perhaps it would be a good idea to expand the LBPC user profile to allow a secondary psn?

ie:

He's saying that LBPC should have "AltPSN:" on your profile.

@swan: I don't think so actually. If Irc the EULA for PSN includes officially one account per a natural (or how it's called) person. Haven't read of any problems from sony's side in this matter but I doubt MM is allowed to encourage us in any way to act contrary to offical EULA stuff.

Anyway, New Game, new 20 slots, right?

I would assume so...

Both?


Huh...just got that weird windows-message-click-ok-thing: "The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 10 characters.", preventing me to be succinct and spot on. What a shame! So I copy this message and keep adding words as they pour out of my keyboard, which nobody actually has to pay attention to, grouching for myself and everyone accidently reading all this until I think the sentence is complete. Like now. Don't you dare showing me that message again!!!1elf

not sure what you mean by "both", But if LBP2 is backwards compatable, I wouldn't count on getting 20 more slots, unless they decide to double EVERYONE's mon capacity. and that still doesn't speak to those of us who have two accounts allready.

I suppose it could be couched as "My best friend" rather than "altPSN".

I meant with "both", that I made two assumptions, that you cited, the first was well hidden behind "If Irc" = If I remember correctly.

In my mind there is the possibility that I remember wrongly falsely and that it only applies (maybe in another way) to usage of psn store. So not really set in stone.

Anyway, they probably want as many users as possible to have both games without ******* us of, so I presume, they make create and share possible and fine for those with just one game, but doubled "web space" is a very good selling point, isn't it? What do you say?

Actually, it'd be logical if they did it, because they definitely want those people with 20 5star-levels to keep contributing. I also wouldn't be surprised of slot-dlc in the further future.

Oi swan, i believe they did say they're expanding the number of levels a player can publish for LBP2, i don't remember by how many, think we'll be able to publish 30 now, but not sure.Well the point is we will have more publishing slots m8, so problem solved. (Besides, i'm sure most will either revamp or delete old levels )

@Xario
Tbh, i don't think they care if a user has multiple accounts tho, many creators have already made multiple accounts to publish their levels because they ran out of publishing slots so i dont think there's a problem with that.

Maybe not for us, but if it's a EULA thing, MM is gonna get some if they do more than silently sitting by, hoping it's not trolls who use multiple accounts but high end content creators..."Doing more" includes an offical option to merge accounts.

What i meant is that Mm or SONY don't really care about that, its just some minor thing, there are to many users who do that to just sit around and check every single one.
Besides, they have no way of knowing if its an account by a troll or by a family member of the person who made the new account.

Don't worry too much about it m8, they don't really care for such small matters, otherwise they would have done something to fix all of the problems in the cool pages for example.

@Silver: I trust your experience, but, well, we are not advancing. Just because quite a few parking offenders are not persecuted because of unfilled vacancies and arguable outcome money wise, I not ever gonna meet an appointee, encouraging me to park like ****. You know what I mean?2010-06-12 05:45:00

I understand, but likewise, if its something insignificant, that doesn't really affect anyone in a negative way and may in fact be more beneficial than not, and no one ever gets prosecuted for it even when the authorities know about it, then what's the harm?

Then why is in EULA if it doesn't matter to anyone? (If it is in EULA, which came from my side and I'm still not 100% certain and no one confirmed yet)2010-06-12 06:03:00

I don't care about something minor like that in Sony's EULA. They gave us a small maximum friend count, lack of privacy options, and other things that my enjoyment of their system would severely suffer from if I couldn't make alternate accounts.2010-06-12 08:23:00

Just like Mm are not allowed to take any ideas from mfansites, so they just "happen to be inspired by the ideas"

In other words, its just legal blah blah blah that they had to put there, but no one really cares about.

Just to be clear, I'm not suggesting any changes to the LBP game, here. but a change to this web-site.
I realize that there is a friendly relationship between LBPC and Media Molecule, But I don't think that my idea would have much impact on that relationship....or would it?


___EDIT___

Shoot! I just realised that our rank would serve that purpose just as well. all that would have to change is adding;
",or alternate PSN"
to the prompt on the edit profile screen in settings. Actually, not even that.. See? now I have My alternate PSN displayed with out The code monkeys having to do anything.
not that there is really anything much to see on my alternate account at the moment.

This thread seems to have gone off-topic a bit. Back to the original question...


So, perhaps it would be a good idea to expand the LBPC user profile to allow a secondary psn?

...there are a few people who just include all their PSNs as a comma separated list, which is as good a solution as any. e.g.

PSN: swanbrown, PUDGY_DUCKLING

If we added an altPSN, then what about people with 3? If we added an altaltPSN, then what about people with 4? etc.

That's a good point. and actually, the comma works for me, now that I know.2010-06-12 18:49:00

Or you could just put it in your sig like this:
PSN: Swanbrown
altPSN: PUDGY_DUCKLING

Lol, people need more slots for more levels, while im having trouble focusing on completeing one level

But, i understand what you mean, OP, and i think some of the more advanced creators would need more slots, but i think its best if you just put the altPSN thing in your signature, like CrazeAlec and others suggested.
