"I'm sure this is a case of users abusing the reporting feature on Xbox Live.  Isn't it set that if enough people report a profile as offensive, it's automatically edited or temporarily banned by Microsoft?
"

That's stupid. Does that mean I can go and report someone that has a curse in their profile because they beat me at Gears online? And it'll fly? Man, you can never trust that kind of power to people . . . unless they are Giant Bomb, and that power is in the form of mod-less editing."

I think it takes a lot of people reporting for any action to be taken, but I could be wrong.

He prefers Dick. Dick Gaywood.

I thought it was Gay Dickwood

This is why "majority rule" is a bad idea on XBL or in politics.   Most people who muster up the energy to vote, are bigots and ignorant.  Just like here in CAli the anti gay marriage bill passed.  It was one of the fatal flaws of "Bringing freedoms to I-rack" as Bush W put it.  If majority rules over in Iraq they will simply elect a right wing radical religious rule.

Was it? How much of the story do you know? Are you aware that Xbox Livetards are assholes, assholes who try hard to be assholes. What if some jackass had decided to bitch since "he got his ass kicked by a girl" (You know the masculine fear of getting their ass beat by a woman)? Did she get what she deserved? Hardly, this is grave injustice, the assholes won this time because the topic at hand is the last acceptable form of bigotry.

In the same vein you don't know that this is a great injustice.

Why do the random people she games with need to know she's gay? Just link to your Myspace or something, problem solved.

Until I point out that I was once a victim of the same abuse. Which happened after a long discussion with a few people, and it was one of those eventual realization things; and I reported their asses for stalking me and being dicks.

The stupidity of people never ceases to amaze me.

It's fucked up, totally fucked up..It seems harsh, but at the same time I don't see why some people feel the need to proclaim their sexual orientation to everyone, especially on a online videogame network.

I've been in several Call of Duty games with overt religious people including one guy was explaining to his mate why his weapon packs were named after religious characters. 'This one's called Moses because he took it to the Egyptians. But he never took them on violently which is why everything has a silencer on it.' I am paraphrasing but it was disturbing as hell.

You'd probably get banned if it said "I am a man and I fucks some chicks!" too.

Rediculous

Wow, never knew Microsoft was a bunch of pathetic homophobic ass-wipes. You can't say "lesbian" in your profile, yet small 9 year old kids are allowed to call people the n-word during games.

Wishing I had bought a PS3.
