8th The code of conduct is mostly the same for every cod game, yes people will trash talk but how many people will actually report you and when they do, how long you think it will take for the enforcement team to take a look. There are so many 11 and 12yrs who trash talk then there are the clan members so it will be hard to keep track of everyone


if people actually started using the report abuse button in game, we'd have less of the stupid annoying trash talkers not just kids but adults too. if the cod gamers actually cared for those people to be off cod, then report them and stop complaining that their there. the enforcement team takes all reports seriously and deals with them. if only one person reports people, of course there will still be alot more of trash talkers and violators of the code of conduct. ITS THE PEOPLES FAULT THAT THERE ARE VIOLATORS STILL.

MoDOT I hate how they try to type all of this out and sound all cool and crap. Why not say.
Hacking=Banned
Trash talk= temp banned
Boosting/glitching=banned
Easy as that this looks like the 1st page of Xboxes manual.


because some people want to know exactly what happens & specifics. its just like laws, they HAVE to be specific and not generalized.
