OozingSmegma Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Hello guys, I was just wondering when you look on the leaderboards it says like 11,000 cheaters removed and I am just wondering how do they know they are cheaters and how do you know if they put you on the cheaters list? Just wondering...... if anyone knew??

madbuk Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 When somebody earns 8500 trophies in a day (true story) you know they're cheating, and thus are removed via a automatic script I believe. This doesn't stop people hacking online trophies after servers are shut, which is why I would really like a way to flag somebody. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Parker Posted August 27, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted August 27, 2013 There are quite a few different ways. Some examples... Earning online trophies after the servers have closed Earning trophies before the game released Earning trophies out of order Completing a game in an impossibly short time There are many other ways I'm sure but those are a few common ways people try to cheat.

Tomato Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 The easiest way to tell imo is based on trophy earning time and you see they were all 'earned' basically the same time magically. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brawler Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I believe everybody has summed it up nicely. From what I've seen they also won't act unless there's multiple instances of it as well. If enough reports have been filed, it catches their attention pretty quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Mayus Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 For example all the people who platted LBP2 in 30 or less minutes-even though it takes 24 hours in create, 5 hours online and then actually playing the game itself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widow_Warrior Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 more importantly, why does someone from the "DIRTY" list, get reinstated on the clean list ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lporiginalg Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 more importantly, why does someone from the "DIRTY" list, get reinstated on the clean list ? One way is using Vita to hide your dirty trophies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snakebit10 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 As mentioned above I have seen people earn the platinum in a game 3 years before the game was released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ichiban-Hybrid Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Another example is MW2, they completed all spec ops and have 69 stars less than 10 seconds.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGibeaver4444 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Earning a platinum before the game's release is not a good was to put it, for instance, Some major companies such as IGN get the game early to review it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardXDXtraga Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Earning a platinum before the game's release is not a good was to put it, for instance, Some major companies such as IGN get the game early to review it. Not like that, they aren't talking 1 or 2 weeks before, they are talking months or even yers before it's released, like this guy: click me! GoW: A and Tomb Raider only came out this year and he got both plats in a 4 year period, time machines, they're here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widow_Warrior Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 which is why I would really like a way to flag somebody. you can, just upgrade to premium Less than £3 a year, multiple updates and you can report go on do it, you know you want to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duck360 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 You could report cheaters. Problem is, there has to be at least 5 trophies being cheated on to do a report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OozingSmegma Posted August 28, 2013 Author Share Posted August 28, 2013 cuz my friend I was at his house helping him do the little big planet 2 plat and it took us like 3 weeks and wen we updated it it said error and some number then it put the trophies we earned in 1 minute!! I don't know how but it took us weeks and it says we took 1 minute.... what do we do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XeoZin Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Just curious is cross saving considered cheating? Like i have all trophies in Sound Shapes for both ps3 and Vita. I earned them legaly on vita but then cross loaded on ps3 and got all trophies in some minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damon8r351 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 There are some other gamers that might consider it cheating because you earned a trophy twice for a game you played once, but the game was built to do it that way, so according to Sony and these trophy websites it's not cheating. You'll notice however that there haven't been any new releases with cross save that have separate trophy lists for the PS3 and Vita versions. So no more dual-platting except for the games that have previously been released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XeoZin Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 ye i can understand some see it as cheating, and its understandable they removed the feature. Ive meet people thinking even boosting trophies online etc. is cheating, or taking advantages of in game exploits/bugs. For me cheating is downloading savegames only, but ofc i respect a clean trophy hunt more. Thx for the answer btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkLordGwynXIII Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 I don't even begin to understand why they would even wanna cheat.. :/Just makes no sense to me, I mean everyone can clearly just check the time stamps and know you've been cheating. So what gives. Cheaters suck balls man, fuck em! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitman_reece Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Is boosting classed as cheating? Or using proxy servers as iv seen people do up this. Also I have both PS3 phat and super slim and my super slim won't let me play aliens vs predator so when I upload my trophies from phat to slim because slim is my main PS3 I use for trophy hunting. I get them quite close together time wise. Is that also classed as cheating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish613 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Kinda annoying that you have to be a premium member to flag cheaters. I'm looking at a cheater right now (SatoshiOokami) and can't flag that person :/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JapanimeGamer Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 (edited) Boosting isn't really cheating because those people still have to play the game, granted it's a lot easier but so are some legit online games when the rooms full of noobs anyway. There's not a lot of difference really. Satoshi is excempt from all things bad, I once saw it carved into a stone somewhere in Icetomb road Edited May 1, 2016 by JapanimeGamer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
