View Full Version : Who else is tired of this
ok you're playing a game online, and you win, but some weirdo, everytime he dies just keeps screaming "You f%$^ing N^%$$#@, I'm going to R%$# and Kill your children you M^%&$% F%$^er"
so, you report them (saying you're using xbox live) but Microsoft says that there must be 10 complaints against a person to investigate it. :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:
so my question is, sould Microsoft lower it.... to 1, I mean there can't be THAT many reports, and I am getting sick of it....
but I just say "Talk to me when u hit the big P, k?"
Yup, you are correct. I have been gaming online since the days of Kesmai's Multiplayer Battletech, back in the mid 90s. I have sworn off public servers for ANY game, for the rest of my life. Public gaming servers contain, by far, some of the lowest class of people ever, and that isn't changing anytime soon... PKs, lamers, griefers, spammers...the list goes on. I don't have time to waste on slack-jawed idiots drooling into mics in their basements.
As far as entertainment goes, Multi-player gaming on pubs is the bottom of the barrel. I would play on a private server...maybe...

I haven't got XBox Live yet, but I want to. Can you play against people online and not have to speak to them?
You know MS Live is worldwide? 24/7? Lowering to one is insane and will never EVER happen. Some group of random morons would be reporting just anyone (and yes even in the cyber world jerks exist) and then MS has to pay some other group of people to sift through countless amounts of crap and bogus reports atleast with a limit like ten it cuts back that need some what and real morons will get the boot in the end.
Bill Gates or Big Billy G as known to his friends didnt get rich by paying more out money on things then he has to. Maybe a cutback for 5 reports would be better for both parties. Still get the report but still cut back on morons in the system. 1 just wont happen on a public server for cost, time, hassle and from a multibillion dollar world controlling technological dominating business perspective that wont change.
Yeah after I posted 1 I thought about that... 5 is a good idea

I find it funny that these acne faced teens get outragged when I snipe them in the head. I sit back and laugh as they go all "CROYT" on my ass.
I think "mods" should be around, and the mods get perks, but no pay or anything. But wait, who would mod the mods?, ohhhhhh.... I.A. of course. YAY.:)

I've played online many times..I haven't yet experienced the need to ban anyone...but what annoys me is how many little kids are online...everytime i hear a whiny little 10 year old say "heeeeeey guuuuys" I feel so embarressed for engaging in the same recreational activity as a 10 year old...
In any case, when someone is being a jerk I get on the mic and sing backstreet boys songs to them..they are usually quite surprised and shutup.
