That's why I only make levels I may get rid of copyable in case someone decides to copy it and republish it without changes, that kinda worries me because there are so many people out there that just want the trophy to me the trophy kinda ruins the game because it's making players trophy hungry.

That's why I only leave my not so good levels copyable because they're levels I'll probably get rid of so I really couldn't care less if they're copied all though now I'm beginning to wonder if that was such a good idea.  With all the trophy hungry players out there. 

Maybe I should put my name is the level somewhere in case someone decides to copy, I think those that copy don't know how to make levels or edit them.  Me I just keep getting better and better at making levels all though I feel a bit bad that I've learned a lot of tricks from the glitches levels where they've explained how to do new things but I'm sure there they're to help you make such things yourself.

I think they do it because they just want to play levels without making any (which is fine since it's not manditory for someone to be a level creator to enjoy or play LBP) but still want the level creator trophies so they just look for a popular copyable level and just steal it without having to do any work.

Sadly they are just abusing the system since I've always felt the copy system was put in place so someone can let people take a look at their level from the inside and see/learn how they manage to do the complex events only for the person to just rename the level and publish it under their own name without giving the original owner credit which is why when I finish my levels they won't be copyable.

Back to the Play Create Share scores and there's more to report even though they're still not live.

The data that seeds these scores is being tracked in the backgroud (and has been for quite some time) however Mm aren't yet happy with the way the final display score is calculated and are working on a system that would prevent it being frustrating to players. Essentially, what you would be doing to earn scores here after they're "switched on" you're already earning but until this works as intended the display side of scoring is remaining switched off.

Thanks Sam. Any idea on an ETA for them going live?

Thanks it was one of your levels that actually taught me some of those glitches and there was another one as well that was very similar to yours that was also helpful

I shouldn't have much to worry about then unfortunately my levels are not very popular all though I have been told by a couple of friends that my levels deserve more recognition but I just make them for fun so I'm not too bothered but I have to admit it would be nice if more people played them and liked them.

Although still very sad that people do this, if people want that trophy they should work for it, I have that trophy though I don't feel it was deserved for the reason I made 18 levels to get it and my levels aren't very popular but still I suppose worse scenario is people stealing a level for it.  That's most unfair on it's creator. 

If they took the level and used it as a template to make a better level from it or a different level from it I see no problem but just stealing the level and republishing it with a different name without changes is most unfair to it's original creator.
