Zarkane27 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Hello so I've only just started playing PlayStation competitively again and I came to check out my profile since I bought the lifetime premium member upgrade a good amount of time ago, just because I love keeping up to date on my completion % but when I came on I saw that I have been flagged for 5 games! All of which I have had hidden for years ? Now i am totally against cheating and I have had this PSN for like 7-8 years now and I really don't want to change it. The said games aren't wrongfully flagged I went through a phase of playing online games and a guy said he'd do some Call of Duty trophies for me since it's all he plays anyway, I eventually agreed and that is when I first realised that Trophies could be hacked... I have regretted them and hate seeing them everyday since but when the feature came out to hide trophies it was like a second chance I got to hide and not take credit for those bogus Forged platinums and I knew I would never let someone onto my account again. now I've come back and wanted to check my profile again (because I have some fastest 100% achievers and stuff LEGIT!) and I am flagged for the games I am hiding, is there a reason for this? Or is this the policy now? I wish we got a onetime chance to delete unwanted sets then we're stuck with what's left but still waiting for that. i want your opinions, if I regret these sets and have them perma-hidden so that they can't be seen and I can't take credit for them then should I still be aloud on the leaderboards? I was in the top 200 in my country and I have lots of very rare legit trophies that I shouldn't lose especially since I never tried to display any less than legit trophies ? I'm a big nerd for statistics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zarkane27 Posted March 19, 2017 Author Share Posted March 19, 2017 Well I would want to work it out in anyway possible, I'm just not sure where to start since I've been away for so long and psnprofiles doesn't have a clear policy until you are already flagged? I know I could cut my losses and just not use trophy tracking sites but I am a legit gamer and I want to know where I stack up! I have spent $1,000s of dollars on the PSstore on games that I will probably only play for trophies and that all seems redundant now... i understand that people hate cheaters and I am with the majority on that, but I don't want to be permanently fucked just because I was a stupid teenager and let someone onto my account. I have payed for 3 years of subscription before I payed for lifetime on PSNprofiles so the least that could be done is someone reviewing this topic or my profile? The biggest thing is I DONT want these games showing up at ALL whereas cheaters want to keep as many sets still showing as possible... I only want my hard earned stuff showing and I think everyone is entitled to that! Keep gaming alive guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grimydawg___ Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 (edited) Welp, the moral of the story is don't let folks into your account. Unfortunately, you hacked too many games to be on the list and it wasn't just CoD games... It's not like you can't get more trophies.

DO_or_DIE_312 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 If I had a nickel for everytime i heard someone ask or complain about being flagged and then their sad story about what happened I'd be a millionaire by now.??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kittens Are Awesome Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Make a new account. That seems to be your only option. You can still use the games bought on your dirty account anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boringname123 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I wish there was a way to help you and still punish active cheaters but any rule always ends up catching some more sympathetic cases. I don't want to start a whole new debate but I can think of one thing that could work. If you gave people a reform period where profiles are given a reprieve after something like 3/4 years since their last hacked trophy as long as all hacked trophies remained hidden. Doing this would provide significant deterrence, punishment, and contribute to the legitimacy of the leader boards while allowing people to reform themselves. Of course this way might provide all those nice things but a total ban accomplishes all of those better, it's about finding a balance and the admins might find deterrence, punishment, and legitimacy too valuable to compromise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaivRules Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Well at least this thread indicates how people feel about the whole punishment/rehabilitation debate. Summary: Once someone commits a crime they can never be reformed and must be punished indefinitely. Hope none of you ever commit any type of law infraction or else you will need to have it on your permanent record and be forever labeled as someone who does not follow laws. Thank FSM we don't live in medieval times. These save file trophy poppers would have been put in iron masks for the rest of their lives. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also reveals how certain people think human beings are emotionally constructed: Apparently people are hard-line extremist cardboard cutouts across the board for every single subject in their life based on a single opinion from an online forum, instead of being nuanced and complex individuals that can have different standards of what "justice" means for different subjects that may or may not have come up in a particular conversation. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
