I support this Petition. LittleBigPlanet was easily the #1 reason I bought a PS3, so seeing its fun destroyed by faceless Sony agents makes me dissatisfied not just with LittleBigPlanet, but with the console as a whole.
I agree 100%. If a level is taken down because of a moderation, the creator should get more than just a pop-up saying "Moderated". Sony moderators owe the creators of the levels explanations, as the ones who build these fabulous online levels are the ones who add so much replayability to the game.
Play, Share, Create. I think needs amending to Play...... as the sharing and creating are being choked in this foolish attempt to keep everyone happy. If flash set out to delete every flash animation which uses another IP we would be with a lot of very clever, funny and inspiring animation / games on the internet. Sony! Get your act together of risk damaging the one flagship franchise you now cling to so dearly.
I support this petition.
WTF?!!! i'm discouraged to create any level..this game is doomed.. so much for "play.create.share".. it's just a false advertisement
Since picking up the game it has sat collecting a fair amount of dust because of poor connectivity to online and levels that wouldn't load. Come to find out that levels are being moderated left and right. Sony if you read any of these at all know this: If you want to delete amazing levels left and right like a robot without checking to see if they actually warrant being deleted then I just won't play this game anymore. Your grand vision for people stimulating the community and buying the add-ons from the PSN store will come crashing down if you smother it. You are smothering it right now. I am so disappointed right now at how poorly this has been handled and it has left a black mark on this game.
The game's motto is Play, Create, Share, but why would anyone want to share if their level is just taken down? I can understand moderation of Mario levels since that's copyright infringement, but the moment you take down completely original levels is the moment nobody will want to BE original. Instead, you allow plenty of useless trophy levels and many levels that are works-in-progress. So far, this can't be good for the community, because we no longer have freedom of expression. If this happens, the whole point of Little Big Planet is lost. I support this petition with all my heart.
I support this petition.
Part of the enjoyment of LBP is being able to spend hours creating something to share with friends and the lbp community. The people that have spent countless time making some of the most worthwhile levels available deserve to have them published, or at bare minimum given a legitimate explanation as to why their creations have been taken offline.
There were so many good levels in the Beta... now I go on and it's the same crappy levels. Even if I do see a good one, it's gone before I can tell many people about it.
Signed. Not only are you deleting completely original stages from LBP, but also deleting God of War themed stages, even when you gave Kratos away as a pre-order bonus. We're not allowed to make stages based on a character we can use in the game? I'm buying a 360. congratulations, Sony.
I support this petition. At the very least, we should be made aware as to the specific rules of what's acceptable and what's not: some of the most well built levels (azure's palace, the god of war skull one) are now gone, with no explanation. Those levels inspired me to work on one of my own, but frankly, what's the point if they can just disappear? Its very disappointing.
