Xbox One griefers may have Twitch privileges taken away

4.5
When Microsoft revealed its reputation system for Xbox One in July, it sought to match the worst members of the gaming community with one another based on a long-term gauge of their behavior in online games. Now, the console manufacturer will begin issuing warnings for those that fall into the "Needs Work" category of players following feedback from other members of the community. In an Xbox Wire blog, Microsoft said, "these warnings are based on community feedback collected since Xbox One launched," so bad reports from others shouldn't take effect from just a few weeks of play.

While Microsoft plans to "introduce rewards for good behavior," the more noteworthy course of action applies to the bottom-tier of the community. Those that fall into the "Avoid Me" category will see penalties on their account, such as "reduced matchmaking pairings" and restrictions on other Xbox Live functions, such as the ability to use "certain privileges such as Twitch broadcasting." Microsoft clarified in September that Xbox 360 reputation scores don't carry over to Xbox One.

Miss This is probably a bad idea since most people tend to want to avoid most players that are better than them.


Yeah I agree. I checked my rating board to see how many people voted to avoid me, and how many preferred me. It was like 86% voted to avoid me, while 16% voted to prefer me.

You're more likely to have someone report you for cheating/hacking/boosting/ect. because of something you did in a game, either good or bad, rather than a friendly fellow give you a positive rating because "you're a great player".

Hit the nail on the head right there. Who the hell says "gee, what a nice guy! I think i'll just spend the next 30 seconds of my life rating this wonderful person 5 stars because that's the normal thing to do... right? Right?"

Someone with a follow could easily ask their followers to give negative reputation to anyone they dislike. Anyone with a big name would be harassed for doing that, but it's still a possibility. What's even worse is that you pay for gold on Live, which means you may lose privileges for things you didn't do, all while you're paying for a service. This is ridiculous af.

-CP I always got bad rep because in SnD I would try hard with my headset and soundwhore. This may bring me down in the future.....


I think the longer someone plays with you the higher chance they have at affecting your rep. Also saying that am I the only one who has less than a 26% Disapproval rating?


99% of people who voted in me have avoided me.

This is pointless, i doubt that trolls (that we care about) are going to be streaming anyway.

I think that the rep system is terrible, ransoms report because they get owned.
