In what perhaps qualifies as a Captain Obvious story, it has been announced that Sony will be moderating the user generated content in LittleBigPlanet to ensure that anything crass and sordid doesn't get through. That's a shame, as an abundance of genitalia is the best part of any user created content.
"We'll be moderating LittleBigPlanet's user-generated content in the same manner as we moderate all our online games," stated a Sony spokesperson. "A good example of this is My SingStar."
Well, poop. There goes my obnoxious plan to make cute woolen animals slide down gigantic veiny throbbing pork swords. I guess I'll have to content myself with making my initials "POO" in every arcade game I'll ever play. So witty. So, so witty.

Comments policy
Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Classy industry, eh?
I hope it's not but I feel that it is.
It did help me.
I'm still stoked for this game, yes I know creating huge cocks for your little characters to swing from is how some people deal with closet homosexuality, but its not like you didn't see this happening. The amount of user generated content that you will be able to get for this game will be staggering, not counting what the game comes shipped with.
...awwww

You are correct, Sony could never do the job of patrolling all user created content, thats why it is going to be not only put on a few trusted moderators, but also up to the community to tell that something is amiss.
It is mostly community moderated.
