Because I could take a screenshot of it, post it on Miiverse, and say "HEY POKEMON GUYS, IM PLAYING MARIO KART 7 HERE LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!"

Something along the lines of that.
Not only you're asking to be banned, but the Pokemon Miiverse group doesn't allow screenshots.
Sorry guys, somebody had to say it.

From what I've seen, I'm pretty sure that's something in the game's code, and not the community's.

EDIT: Never mind, it is the community. Darn.

I kinda wasted my entire day working on trying to hack a children's social network. All I got was this:

About 1/3 of the people believe it, 1/3 of the people don't believe it, and the other 1/3 is explaining the hacks I used. RIP my entire day.
I'm curios. Tell me how long it takes to get banned xD

Can you post some instructions on how to do what you did? It sounds fun! (I don't think you have to be 15 to have fun. I will be twice that in August)
With Mario Kart 7? Once I figure out how to properly compile the RomFS, I'd love to make a tutorial about it. Just gotta find the right programs.

There's probably a much easier (and less illegal) way to do this, though. Like changing the ID of a Sunshell CIA instead of replacing two hard-to-create BCLIMs in a copied ROM. But I haven't tried messing with that yet, so if anyome gives it a try, tell us what happens here.

Why would he banned to do such thing like that? I could do the "same" thing just using photoshop and I can't be banned because of that. Or is it ilegal to post photoshopped pictures?

You can only post screenshots of games, and only the game that's the topic of the forum.

Wow, you guys... At least let me explain.

Basically, Mario Kart 7's title screen consists of two easily-editable BCLIM files. If you edit those, you can post custom images in the Mario Kart 7 community. This is why I asked the question at the start of the post: so I could get those custom images to other communities.

This guy did it just fine: http://le-miiverse-resource.wikia.com/wiki/Two_Faced/Arian

So I'm just trying to see if I could do this in that way. That's it.

I kinda wasted my entire day working on trying to hack a children's social network. All I got was this:

Wow, how pathetic. You guys really don't have anything better to do with your time?

So much work for so little reward. You wasted a whole day, and all you have to show for it is a picture of your homescreen posted in a community that already allows pictures of your homescreen!? lol

Some people just don't care about time when they're "having" fun, man.

I know 3/4ths of the people reading this probably don't care, but I decided to work on modding CIAs.
It's coming along great, I have a working LPP-3DS script that shows a screenshot and works as a certain game ID.
All I have to do is finish building the CIAs and bug-test.

EDIT: Expect a release by tomorrow morning. Which is in 5 hours for me, I've stayed up too late working on this stuff and I need some sleep. Look forward to then! ;)

Who are you to judge how people spend their time?
