In FW 3.00 PlayStation let us make communities on the PS4 and I thought this would be a great way to play games with our followers/members. Everything was going great with the community on the PS4 as we got up to about 100 members. We never talked about hacks, it’s more about playing with friends and sharing your experience with a game you liked or disliked. I even want to do tournaments with fighting games and first person shooters but PlayStation had other plans for the Hackinformer community on the PS4.
What happen next surprised me but at the same time it didn’t. I figure if PlayStation didn’t like it they would just delete the community but no they took one step further and banned the account that we used to make the community. Lucky it was just a temporary ban and we got the account back online but the community was gone. This was the email we received from PlayStation which didn’t explain what we did wrong, the only thing that comes to my mind is Hackinformer might be a banned keyword but I really don’t know.

What do you make of this and was it silly for them to ban the account instead of just deleting the community. Let us know in the comments below.
Just all the more reason PC gaming needs to take over.
I totally agree with you on that..
i feel that Sony just needs to enplane better to as why this happens Terms & Conditions Breach other makes no since. Other sites have communities on the PS4 and they don’t get banned so why did this one? I just wish i knew why. 🙁
So, the next plan is to make a new community under a new name right? 😛
And like Franky said PC gaming is the only choice when Sony pulls stuff like this lol
Yeah, we just need to make a new account that we don’t have to worry about just to play it safe and to make them happy we will call it fluffy bunnies. (JJ LMAO).. No we will call it something better then that, maybe the informers.
The Informers has a nice ring to it lol i like it, but like the other 2 guys said, if sony keeps pulling stuff like this PC gaming needs to take over especially if this ps4 4.5 is real i just find it stupid and i’m willing to put my bets down that the sole reason for the removal was so that no one could advertise us to others and easily have information on how to hack their devices (specifically the ps4) in the future.
That does seem to be why but then again maybe it was cause they just don’t like sites like us, they fear what could happen if people have knowledge and info on what really is out there in there games and systems.
i would simply say that sony could go to hell 😐 with charging us lots of money for simple stuff….
