This control over speech also applies in stadiums where racist slurs, threats of violence, etc. can lead to removal even legal sanctions against the offensive fan.
Well written piece.
Cool post. I think that xBox Live should monitor chatting on games that are played on it.And I agree with Corry Cropper..
Wow nice blog.
Unfortuanately most people on xbox live are to stupid to understand how it works.
Thanks.
Interesting post...I think services like Xbox Live have even been pretty lenient with this as most people who are offensive are usually muted. Also if people took advantage of Microsoft's gamer feedback feature then the problem may not be as widespread.
