A few little things that really annoy

Their not really that big but do annoy me when you use the D-pad to control the sack boy, when he uses the controller no matter what direction you press the sackboys hands only move up or right.
When your in the loading screen waiting for a level to start the comments page is always blank until youve completed the level (whats the point of having that page at the begining)
And on the loading screen you see the tags that people have given the game whats the point as, as soon as the game is played a few times all the tags are used.

Again this is nothing that makes me hate LBP just wondered if any one else has noticed this.

Why would you use the inferior D-pad , I didn't even know you could switch to it.

When your in the loading screen waiting for a level to start the comments page is always blank until youve completed the level (whats the point of having that page at the begining)

Can't say I look at the comments at the start so I haven't noticed this. Tags and stars are the best way to see how good a level is before you play it. Comments are usually h4h and crap like that

And on the loading screen you see the tags that people have given the game whats the point as, as soon as the game is played a few times all the tags are used.

I guess some people just use any tag because it's required, but that's up to the community to sort out. From my experience levels with under 50-100 plays only have a few tags.

Again this is nothing that makes me hate LBP just wondered if any one else has noticed this.

The only thing that annoys me is the lag when joining an online game.

If you think of the tags as a vote rather than someones opinion, so when you complete the level you can vote a certain attribute up;

The bigger the tag is the more people have "voted" that tag. so if you have a really large "brilliant" tag and the other tags are small it gives you some idea what the level is like.
