Hi, I was wondering a month ago I used the trophy cheat in gta 5 and all my trophies were unlocked. Now my question is: If I sync my PSN account with trophies, will I be banned if I risk being banned, how can I delete this trophy data? (I backed up my original game disc and transferred it to HDD)
 
there's always a risk, but sony seems less capable of catching people who cheat with trophies than microsoft is with achievements. trophies are the main reason I wanted to go legit. I didn't want to risk losing everything if I got banned, plus I'm using a separate account on the ps3, vita/pstv, and the ps4, so I wouldn't accumulate that many trophies with exploited consoles, what with them being separate. I have a fourth account that's meant for going legit, just had issues with the ps store on the ps3.

For example, I was banned on User A in the past. Likewise, if I log in with User A again, will I be banned? Do I have to create a new user B and log into PSN from there?
 
I don't think users are banned, only accounts. if you feel concerned, use a different user I guess. I was concerned with my ps4 and my banned account when I got banned on the ps3. it affected the ps4, vita, and pstv as well, since I was using the same account. anyway, I formatted the ps4 hdd on my sata station to rid all traces of everything on the hdd. personally, I don't think exploited systems belong online anyway, so it's up to the individual if they're willing to risk it. imo, it's not worth the risk especially if the account is on other systems.

I heard that the ban risk is very high in different games GTA,COD do you think this is true or is the ban risk the same in all games?
 
no, those two games have high ban risk. someone looked at the eboots for both of them, and they search for certain folders on the internal hdd that shouldn't be there if legit. I wouldn't risk modding or possibly even playing backups of either game.

Is there a list of games with a high ban risk?

Will I be banned if I play games on an original disc? COD Black ops 1
 
theoretically, it probably doesn't matter, because the folders will still be on your hdd. it's like the old anti-modchip games on the playstation 1 where even a legit copy of the game would refuse to run if it detected a modchip. it's pretty much a catch 22 either way you can be screwed.

If you mean additional installations by HDD, there is no additional installation in COD black ops 1, only the update file
 
that might be okay, but I don't remember which folders it looks for. for all I know, it searches for multiman's folder or something.
