Why RobTop HATES These Geometry Dash Levels...

People have betrayed Robtop with crazy updates to their levels. Sometimes they make Hacked Extreme Demons, other times they make secret passages. While RobtopGames has taken stars away from hundreds of levels, but he's actually DELETED some levels. Watch until the end because you will not want to miss this one... Consider this my 70K special and celebration of Geometry Dash's 10 Year Anniversary

[@GGsquared]

There was also another demon called “No Limits” which the creator made free, because he thought the level was bad, and wanted his other, better levels to be rated instead. This backfired a LOT on him, as RobTop himself commented saying that he would never be rating a level by him again, due to him abusing the power of having a rated level.

[@mewmew8932]

honestly i hope he got un-blacklisted that kinda sucks, i would want my better work to shine above some crap that got noticed

[@TJ-hg6op]

@@mewmew8932Yeah, but he could’ve gone around it MUCH better. He could’ve just deleted the level, asked for it to be unrated, or anything else. Adding a secret way just gives the level more attention.

[@dofenold]

In 1.9 there was a bug that I abused and thought was big, but people didn't talk that much about it 😅 If you were playing on a mobile at that time, it was really easy to beat any online level - you needed to simultaneously hold delete button on a level and a play button and the level got "erased" with a basic stereo madness song. Tons of stars 🌟 🤩

[@estebson]

iirc it was actually a relatively well known bug at the time and was exploited by many people.

[@konstantinmrdjen6618]

it still works? I was at my friends house and he beat 19 extreme demons using that bug.

[@dofenold]

whenever i tried on the newer versions it wouldn't let me but idk@@konstantinmrdjen6618

[@cyansylveon]

I would assume this is just 2.2 having its own problems since robtop did end up patching the bug when 2.0 was released and took the stars from people that tipped the anticheat off with it. I can almost guarantee a fair chunk of people wouldve heavily abused it if it was around during the 7 year wait. Id expect him to do the same thing with 2.21

[@vonatok]

[@RestorationUnion]

Good video! Decently researched, a lot of the facts are on point and the overall editing is quite nice and easy to follow. However, there are some errors/obscurities in the video we've noticed that would be good for us to mention, mostly to clarify on a few pointers made in the video and to help increase yours and the viewers understanding on this topic at hand: 2:12 - We theorise DarkX sent an email to RobTop requesting all of his levels to be removed from the servers, as there's a possibility it was deleted by at the latest 19th April 2014. 2:42 - They were released from 1.4 to 1.5, with Origin being released a few hours after Update 1.5 was released to the public. All four levels were released in just a month, from 8th Jan 2014 to 31st Jan 2014. 3:06 - He used it because of an exploit that allowed users to verify levels in practice mode by pausing at the end screen before you hit the wall. It was patched in Update 1.3. 3:12 - I don't think this was the case, all levels were updated to 1.5 and 1.6 as an attempt to force players to update I think. There's levels like "Trumpsta" which was released in 1.6 but built on Update 1.00 of the game and was somehow featured. There's also five rated levels released during Update 1.6 that was made and released on Update 1.4 of the game. 3:43 - There's currently no proof he ever reset/rollback the servers, what he did was shut down the servers for a few minutes to patch the exploit and delete the broken levels. 4:45 - It had over 800,000 objects. 5:16 - This version had only ~500,000 objects, the moderators approved the "optimised" version verified and released by Stilluetto to be rated, but of course it was still too much for Geometry Dash to handle so Rob unrated it within two minutes. :D 5:24 - Update 1.4 wasn't the exact cause, but it stems from creators reaching the 100KB size limit at the time, causing levels to not upload properly to the servers. Levels like "69 machine" and a few other rated levels have been affected by the bug but not patched (Which explains why the level uses Stereo Madness as the song), but didn't cause the issue of an object with a hitbox being teleported to x0,y0. "Active Factory" by YunHaSeu14 is also affected by this bug and also physically impossible. The bug was fixed some time in 1.5, but the damage was done, and RobTop deleted C0nFuS3D from the servers on Valentines Day 2014. :D 5:56 - (Fun Fact) Even before Update 1.7, it was possible to directly copy a level by copying the level data from an online level in your Saved Levels folder to a level in your Created Levels folder, but few players knew how to perform this. XYZ Step Infinity by OrcaSN was built by directly copying XYZ Step and buffing it to an Insane Demon. :D 7:20 - There's even modern examples of when this happen, like EGO KILLING and WOBBLING MACHINE being derated for having a hacked-verification and no legitimate victors by the time of their exposals. 10:12 - It was Update 1.8 that caused this, not Update 2.0. What Rob changed with the physics was make it so the ball could bump on the ceiling/blocks via jump pads or orbs without dying. (Which... broke this level since the block was too close to the pad, as before you would slightly clip through the block without dying.) 10:53 - Best explanation we have of why this got rated at all was due to a LevelID typo in the demon system. (And RobTop never even bothered to check the level he played and... yea this whole situation is one massive question mark.) Funnily enough, this was copied from yet another buffed version of The Nightmare by a different user. 11:17 - Absolut DestructionK :P - Kuiper, member of RU

[@thegrassguy2871]

Hakucho was also a hacked green user "account" that is really 2 separate people, I think: GW Elsa (the creator of High Hill) and HellGalaxy (the low-effort level thief).

[@randomannoyance]

the rated ocular miracle version was around 500k obj because it was heavily optimised by davphla. after the unrate they reverted it back to 800k

Before the new 2.2 bug fix updates, there was a bug where you could skip the ENTIRE LEVEL by getting at least 1% in and then pressing the delete button and then the play button at the same time, it was the biggest exploit of all time.

[@kwanyewdst9561]

I got an example of a deleted/unrated level, although its a little strange because it was never unrated or deleted in the traditional sense: CuCu by TheLoserClub Some context: While I was browsing the recent tab I found a named Leviathan which was uploaded by Schnuffi41. It was an ok level but had good gameplay so a gave it a shot in practice mode, and at the very end I saw that the name didnt match the creator. Of course copying levels isnt anything new but the guy who “made” the level had some creator points, so i thought it was a mistake. I asked him, but he deleted the level and reuploaded it with the name at the end updated. Thought it was very suspicious, so I asked the guy who ACTUALLY made the level, and he managed to get the copy taken down. Now, the actual meat of the situation: I figured if Schnuffi copied some random’s level, there was a chance that his featured level, CuCu, was also copied. Sure enough, with a bit of digging used the advanced search options, I found an earlier version uploaded by TheLoserClub, the actual creator. She was inactive, though, so I had to contact a few moderators to get Schnuffi’s version removed. Took a few days but they did fix it, but in a slightly surprising way. Robtop used the same method that he used with Advy and that unikitty dude, where he doesnt delete the level but instead transfers it to a different account. Very strange situation. I wish there was some kind of tool to more easily check if a level is copied, because ever since this happened I got curious as to how many people got away copying levels. Note: To those who are skeptical, there are a few clues as to what happened by checking around. Some include: - Current version still includes the copiers name - The original and current version exist on the same account - Schnuffi still has his creator point due to a bug, or possibly because Robtop forgot to remove it -You can see TheLoserClub’s comment on a now deleted copy of her own level, Arctic, calling out Schnuffi for saying that she was the one copying Oh yeah and please dont harass this guy. Not only is it just morally wrong but youd also just be yelling at a brick wall bc the dudes been inactive ever since he got exposed

[@kwanyewdst9561]

Also I have a question for those who see this: Does a tool to check if a level is copied actually exist? Usually I just use the suspicious level’s song, length, and coin status and search to see if theres an earlier version, but theres only so much I can do with it. I dont want to spend an eternity looking through hundreds of levels for a version that might not even exist. Ive heard there are level searching tools though. Does anyone know anything that can help me out? I really would like to start finding serial plagiarists again, its fun and you get to help the community.
