Don't ban me for having the word "Fuck" in my bio and I won't throw you away the next (4th) time you break. Garbage.

    So you're complaining about being banned for something this is clearly against the TOS? I don't think you'll find much sympathy here.

    I like how you will use "fuck" on your profile but not on these forums where it's perfectly fine.

    So... since we don't have a whole lot of meat for this here OP, maybe we should move this discussion in a productive direction. What does everyone think about the TOS for 360 profiles? Obviously, Microsoft has the right to include whatever they damn well please, but I would argue they do some stupid bullshit with it. It's really not cool they go out of their way to make people who mention their sexuality change it or create another profile. Thoughts?

    Yay, we haven't had a wonderfully worded "Hate on X console with minimal reasons" thread in a while.


    As far as Microsofts policies are when it comes to what you put in your bio. It's their world, and their rules. When you sign up for Live you agree with their ToS, and griping about it after you break the rules is just silly.

    In MW2, I ran into a guy whose name was apparently too complex for Xbox Live to handle, so it was displayed as Microsoft XABYLBRB.

    The button letters were even colored the same way as the buttons. Pretty funny.

    Haha that forum is pure gold.
    Apperently I was suspended because "You put "Grandview Athletics-Win or Lose We Still Booze i gotta bit*h to suck my di*k til i nut spit it on my gut n slurp that s*it back up" in your bio which is inappropriate and against the Terms of Use. " The thread was locked before I had a chance to respond but this is NOT my bio, Is there anyway you can check my gamertag xX3jake4Xx and see for yourself. There's no way I could have changed it being as I can't even log into my account right now.

    Actually this isn't true. You were suspended for displaying, sending, or sharing illicit or pornographic material on Xbox Live. (specifically, your conduct during a recent Uno game) This suspension is permanent and will stand as issued.
