So I was playing black ops 3 arena the other day and this person did really bad and he was trash talking, later on he sent me a message so I replied out of anger and used profanity. Last night I was playing a game with my friends and out of no where I could not hear anyone. I tried sending a message and it said "Communications have been blocked on this account due to bad behavior" so I checked my email and I got a 7 day communication ban for 'trash talking'. Microsoft needs to realize that it's a rated M for mature game, there is going to be trash talking/profanity, the characters in campaign/zombies even swear...

I know, but it was hard because I carried him, he didnt even get a kill and then we lost. He kept sending me messages saying I was garbage.

i used to do that all the time and that hasn't ever happened to me.. i've done text, voice, and in game chat using bad words, and never received that type of punishment.

i had a motto that was "Drop the Mother******' Bass" just like that and i got a code of conduct and a 7 day ban. the worst week of my summer vacation...

The game is rated M. The interactions within Xbox Live though are basically supposed to be rated E. Just because a game is rated something, that doesn't mean that the rules for interacting with other people change.

Xbox has really been cracking down on people for communication recently. I've had three different friends get a ban for communication in the past month.

ratings may change during online play. there's something like that that shows during the trailer usually.

Yea, because the company can't stop everyone from saying something that changes that rating. It isn't that the rules change while online. It is that online is so unpredictable that they have to cover themselves from people either complaining or potentially making it a legal issue. The rules still stand though for Xbox Live.

It's not what language the game uses, as you stated " the characters in campaign/zombies even swear..." They don't care about that because they can't do much about that because it's the developers making that not Microsoft itself. It's on how you react and respond to the user what makes the effect for you to get a ban. You shouldn't replied back to that idiot, just block communications with him.
