In response to LittleBigPlanet's recent moderation issues, Sony has made an official comment on the PlayStation Blog stating that the company is continually improving the way in which it moderate user submitted levels.

Said Mark Valledor, Marketing Manager for Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCE): "The level moderation process is something we’re continually improving. The small percentage of levels moderated have been done so after the community has reported them using the Good Grief tool. We never moderate levels that have not been reported in this way.”

“The vast majority of moderated levels were due to offensive material, however we are evolving the way moderation happens to ensure that creators are made aware of why their level was blocked. More to come shortly.”

In addition to moderation, Valledor posted new statistics for LittleBigPlanet, stating that nearly 60 million levels have been played online. You can find the full list of statistics below.

- # of user generated (UG) levels = 177,657
- # of comments = 1,093,491
- # of times Story levels have been played online = 36,661,881
- # of times UG levels have been played online = 22,463,892
- # of levels played online = 59,125,403

    @ staticneuron its easy 1million people got the game so if each one of them 1 million people have played 60 online levels that = 60 million

    I have played one on-line level, spent a day trying to get my car to work XD and the rest of the time just mucking about & playing the game.

    Im enjoying every minute of it..although I am having some difficulty with the creation tools. They are simple, but because of simplicity, its losing out on detail to a great extent (IMO).

    The online level I played was very small, but had some nice ideas & I think thats where online levels come into their own. The show you things that you may never have thought on & can add to your own.

    My main issue with the designing is the field of depth being 3 levels..its very restrictive to a great degree. We also need some mechanic to be able to move the car from one plane into another...steering if you will. This will add more to a design IMO & would be great if MM could see their way tobringing us some tool for that. One sackbiy could be driving & another steering...

     

    Much more can be done with the game...add another plane is another example, but its great even as it is. One of my best buys this generation.

    My level "Japanese Art" got modded, I think because someone thought that winning a PS3 was against the Terms. LOL wow maybe I should report the level where I won 3 Bongs
