Ya, there's been so much spam lately, quite annoying.

People make a good level and then delete it....

Weapon spam
You're placed around a force field or invincible part when you start the game
Empty levels (Like Zeke said)

Im prety sure that all the empty levels (excluding the first one) have been deleted. But if you do find one, please report it so a Moderator/Administrator can hide/delete the level

There seems to be a really rare bug that will blank out levels once in a blue moon. It sucks when this happens to somone who's put a lot of work into a great level only to have it vanish. And it really sucks when the level can't be restored and is lost forever.

You can always take local backups of your levels (AI and part code). There could be some backup-all-levels button on your Home too to make it easier but maybe it's not that big problem. Offline playing of backups would be nice though :P you could make/play levels even when you don't have internet connection.

Yep. All of my big levels have back ups on my computer. As long as I remember the file password, I can acces the backup.

I've started to suspect this myself...but I have no idea what causes it, as it's never happened to me.

If it ever happens to you guys, please let me know.

Also, if you know of specific levels that were definitely legit before being blanked out, let me know which ones they are so I may investigate. Of course, there are some levels that are created blank to begin with, so that doesn't help with the confusion.

sure thing MD.
I know of one such level that did but now I can't remember the name. Ill have to do a little hunting. Oh and anything past page 10 of the gallery and is blank, probably had that blank-out bug happen. The only time I saw it happen was when I played a level, came back to it later and found a blank level. Several weeks passed and the level content returned without any reloadings occuring (as far as I know). weird.

Here's one, but it's been like this for quite a while I think.
