I created and uploaded George Sisler (whose last name has not been re-recorded yet), and apparently the following description was offensive "HoF 1B/OF/P, Best Hitter in Browns-Orioles history, scouted Jackie R"
I don't understand. This is offensive, yet you allow logos of Nazi symbols, drug use, beer advertisements, nude women, and [censored]?
I've been very patient with your studio for the past 7 + years, but it's time to do something about this.
Catering to duplication of tens of thousands of logos, both vulgar and non-vulgar, while expecting the user base to recreate EVERY player each year is ridiculous.
What's your solution, San Diego Studios? What are you doing to address this?
-
First of all, you are 100% correct in your observations, but you know as well as I do what their solution is. It is the same solution as they have employed for as long as I have been playing this game...................repeatedly ignore stuff like this, to the point of not even addressing that it exists. Rinse and repeat for next year.
-
Same thing happened to me with Rusty Kuntz and [censored] Pole.
-
I'm not happy about it, but the studio will listen to you, if you're persistent and genuine.
There are a lot of us who aren't solely interested in Diamond Dynasty!

@theBlindRhino_NSW This is why I think there's an imbalance with the Vault. San Diego Studios should be able to create some type of algorithm to delete the massive amount of exact duplicates, in the Vault, and spot vulgar stuff too.
Those of us creating players can't exactly create a vulgar player, minus the name/description.
It's time to clean it up, ladies and gents! (not you but the studio)

I am bringing this excellent post to the attention of Joe at SDS. You make strong points and in a very professional manner. It is time for SDS to address both issues forthrightly. Like with a great deal of the code that tries to automatically limit what customers can do, the effect is rejecting perfectly valid attempts to do things that are reasonable, moral, and wholesome, while facilitating some of the worst forms of vulgarity and outright cheating.

@Ken_Stallings_MLBTS Thank you so much. Your words... some of the nicest things anyone has ever said about me!
And yes, it's time to be more generous with the player artists/creators and remove the nonsense and massive amount of bloat in the Logo section of the Vaults.
After playing this game for 17 years, I'm insistent that this changes, and I don't think it would break the studio to balance this.
SDS is sending a very twisted message about what they support. The filth in the Logo Vault is telling users that their game is fine with having genitalia, beer & drug advertisements, Nazi symbols, mockery of 9/11/01, etc, in DROVES. I wasn't too happy when my nephew saw that garbage!
-
It always seems to be that the worst stuff is on the first page in the vault.

Hi folks,
Thanks for the tag here. Funny enough, I actually came across this thread yesterday and I'm having some discussions with team on this. I can tell you that removing offensive logos is something they strive to stay on top of to the best of their ability.
I'll keep everyone updated as necessary, but personally, I totally agree with the sentiment here.
Thanks again!

Hi Joe K,
This isn't just about removing the bad, but also, keeping the good. The created players are VERY valuable to those of us that want to preserve the history of the game. Before 2021, I'd create dozens of visually accurate players each year. We had a large group of dedicated artists, including Sammy and Mojo. Until this year, Dr. Sublime (XBOX) created a bevy of guys that were incredibly accurate.
We want to keep these creations into the next year. It's the most important thing for us.
