Basically i would like the game to start using all of my creations rather then using Maxis ones. Once all of mine are used it uses the maxis ones. Aside from the Grox. Would anyone like to try or comment about this? Personaly i would like to see the game run like this sence i spent so much time creating my creatures and other things. It seems like the game would rather use Maxis junk then our own creations. Another down fall to the Spore title...

The reason why this happens is because there are usually a much greater amount of Maxis creations than there are for users who have things set to buddy content only. To make matters worse, it seems like the game code itself seems to allow for Maxis creatures to be recycled back into the pool, while player creations are not. It was likely done this way to encourage people to share their creatures and have the constant downloading of content enabled. With all content enabled, the instances of seeing any maxis creations goes down significantly since the game just pulls from the online pool of creations every time something new is needed. The downside to this is that 99.9% of everything in that online pool is total, and complete rubbish.
Essentially, what you would need to do in order to have an abundance of player content, and little EA content would be to try and find about 30-40 creators that have more than 100 creations each, and buddy with them. Or, do a marathon session of making many different space races, changing only minor things along the way.
As far as I know, there is nothing moddable that can be done to make the game re-use player creations, and this was probably done for the specific purpose of keeping the game from using them for every other planet, causing quite a bit of confusion. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to prevent player creations from all being used within a single play through.
