swear during skype call on Xbox One: go right ahead. You won't be banned for that.

The OP should be updated to clarify that this ban resulted from online multiplayer behavior and prevents the use of Skype as a side effect, not the other way around.

Having said that, LOL @ locking unrelated basic features behind the paywall.
 
I didn't mind the "no cursing on upload videos" deal, but this is going too far. I don't curse much but I do every once in a while.

This is the epitome of that Family Guy FCC episode where they were censoring life, except this is just your phone calls. Shame Microsoft.

EDIT: Nvm, this seemed to be a multiplayer issue instead.

You can't Xbox Live Gold is required Dave
 
So don't swear? I mean everyone agreed to it when they agreed to the Xbox Live Code of Conduct and Terms of Use. :p You guys know swearing in your profile is also a bannable offense, from the entire service, for 2 weeks? Swearing in a game chat is also bannable if you're caught, just there's no way to catch you. :p

Doesn't make it right, but we agreed to it. :p At least its not a service wide ban, that would piss me off.

Do Rockstar and DICE as developers have to Abide by the Xbox alive code of conduct too ?
 
A typo on an error message + some dumbshit cussing on a video he uploads = MS scans everything about you and if you cuss the system bans you and shuts down.

So you want children to watch a Upload Studio and see or hear totally unnecessary stuff without any warning?

they have the parental controls to limit it to only show clips from friends. otherwise I don't see how its any different from letting your kids on youtube

this, i assume, is if you are reported? or does kinect actually do the banning? it has to be the former... i've dropped a number of bombs already...

It was not related to Kinect or Skype. His account was banned for profanity in Upload studio which they can simply watch. Not sure how I feel about profanity as a bannable offense. But, I also do not want it to be non moderated and my children hear awful stuff or see private body parts either.


this needs to be in the OP
