Code of Conduct breach

[user3392345]

hi, today i got a msg fom psn.

"On 28/1/18 your activity in Gran Turismo Sport was a breach of our Terms of Service.

Content of an adult or sexual nature is against our Code of Conduct."


WHAT happend here? i dont use any sexual skins or have any sexual content or language.

how and why i have got this msg?

 

[TheDabbinDave]

Well, to start, how about screenshots of the car(s) you used on that date???

 

[user3392345]

just colors like green, mate green, red. i cant understand that. maybe a hater?

 

[Robben]

Saw an article on GTP about this, this morning (can't find it now though)... apparently Polyphony only posted the warning on their Japanese site and didn't divulge details of the breach... this explains it I guess.

 

[NoFinClue]

Did you create a lobby with an inappropriate name ? That's what I usually report.

 

[TheDabbinDave]

Very possibly could be a hater, since there isn’t an option for “beat me by .001 seconds” or “stole my racing line” or “rammed my rear end when I slammed on the brakes way too early”.

 

[NoFinClue]

Well, I doubt I'm to blame in this instance, but that is the likely reason.

Unlikely that they would have enacted anything if this chap simply rammed someone in a Sport race.
I've reported many users for uploading what I consider to not be appropriate decals and non of them have resulted in a warning.

I dont use Sports Mode, but probably its the lobby name... Stoners Paradise strange thing, i use this name now 7 years, since gt5.

thx for help, i will see what happend next.

It could be images or words on your car, words in your lobby title, words displayed as your entry/race finish messages, or words in messages sent to other users. And bear in mind that the words may be acceptable in your idiom or culture, or even your own language, but not in others.

But without any more information it's difficult to know. You could narrow it down by working out exactly how many times you played online yesterday and what you did in each case.

I've only reported once, an Audi with "**** you!" in big letters on the back-end, and I only went to the effort of reporting it because I was bored, spectating, waiting for the next race to begin. According to the response I got, no issue was found. I'm sure PD/Sony have good intentions, but I do question their implementation.

That must be it. I've heard people get banned from PS4 entirely for almost nothing. I try to avoid anything even close to "edgy" in my liveries, messages etc..

I don't think its as bad on Xbox. When I used to play with 360 everybody was using foul language, threathening eachother and teabagging.. And so on..

Sounds delightful

Yeah, a decal I reported had two men spit-roasting a woman in the shape of a Honda logo and that was also deemed not to have broken any rules...

 

[Alpha Cipher]

On the subject of indecent liveries, does this happen to be inappropriate...?

 

[zzz_pt]

I hope PD is not banning people for uploading (or even sharing) decals of cigarettes and alcoholic brands.

Would be just stupid.

 

[NoFinClue]

No more so than any other military decal, of which there are many. Had it been a swastika, then that would likely attract many complaints.

 

[CliveH]

What about your greeting message is that appropriate?

 

[Da_dietn]

Did you create a lobby with an inappropriate name ? That's what I usually report.

Omg you really report room names, damn...

 

[NoFinClue]

Omg you really report room names, damn...

I certainly do, however they are usually related to sexual assault or murder. So they fall well beyond a level of decency. I certainly wouldn't have reported the OP for their title.

I have shared a picture of my newly purchased 330 P4 (OMG its a dream to drive) with the caption 'It's been a hard day and night' referring to beatles and the amount of time it took to earn the credits for it.
When I look at the picture now, the word 'night' has been replaced with ***** by PD.

I cannot think of any language where 'night' is a rude word? I recall 'engine' getting the ******* treatment in a previous GT game?

I have a whole series of my "Red Baron" liveries on German cars, and have never had a complaint... not even from the Snoopy fans!

Cheers

that's crazy

I was going to post proof... but it's now displaying correctly? But my comment of 'n i g h t' is now **** I expect a PD Bot is doing this and not a 'real' person.

Ahh just noticed it's nig that the 'bot' doesn't like. It's 2018 software should be better than this.

Cool livery! If I had a Z4 myself I might have added that to my collection (and ofc a like and repost)

Well, people do tend to do some things at night, and an engine is a car's... you know... part

I also have been censored for the word 'night'. My theory, the initial three letters are common with a American racial slur.

I am guessing it's because the word contains the string nig and that would be flagged as derogatory.

Ive no idea how the report function works when it gets to PD. I was in a daily sometime last week and one of the Gr3 cars had in bold capitals across the rear bumper **** YOU ****. How anyone can think that is remotely acceptable or even funny when kids (including my own) play this is beyond me. Naturally I immediatley reported his livery once the race had ended yet it came back that it did not violate their terms of conduct and cautioned me for misuse of the report function! What the hell ?! I could only conclude that the phrase in question means something like "Good day to you kind sir, may wealth and happiness pour upon you and your family" in Japanese.
