try muting your mic... I realized that there's no need to talk when playing online, you might think you need to, but you really don't, so enjoy the games without hearing other players if it disturbs you that much.
I for one don't care about anything I hear, when playing online, I just sit and enjoy my games. You should try the same

I just recently go to the point where i listen to what people say pre-game and mute the idiots off the bat.
I'm a guy, but sexist people annoy the crap out of me, too:evil:.Alpha-909
I know. Find a 4 year old to pick on. those are the people who shouldn't be playing online. Well at least M rated games.
Yeah when I hear someone talking crap about a race or sex, I try not to say anything, but I get angry and end up cursing the person out. Then I get in trouble, it sucks.Kickinurazz
Same here. The only reason why i have 23% percent bad rep is because im to busy trying to teach discriminatory idiots a lesson.
IMO a mic does make all the difference, I need to wear the mic even if I am not on Live, it is crazy. Also with no mic and if yu can hear the players it is actually the most annoying thing ever, you just want to talk but you cannot. All the questions I could answer were being asked when I don't have a mic.
Back to the topic thou,yes I agree but, females are not common on Xbox Live, most players don't know what to do when a female enters a lobby and react inappropriately. I have actually played with about... 3 females in about 3 years of Xbox Live. I need to get around.
thats why most of them sit there say nothing. Dont blame them really. People that do that obviously havent got a gf or been laid yet and by carrying on like that, never will.darksusperia
Yeah. I try to be the nice guy and try to start a nice conversation but then some idiot chimes in and makes some sexist remark, which makes matters worse.

glad im not the only vigilante out there :D
The whole point of playing on Xbox Live is to have fun.
For many people this fun is not only in playing the game itself, but in cussing and making fun of people.
Such is life. If people took everything seriously, then no one would be happy.

I feel bad for the girls, i mean they like playing games just as much as we do. But when they enter a room they get harassed.BlacKJaCK2290
I know. I think that should be an option for filing a complaint: Sexism and Racism. It just makes others on xbox live have a crappy gaming experience.

Thats a good point. I enjoy my fair share of bad language but i never mean it in a threatening maner. I just want some people to have some decency and not attack a certain group of gamers.
Yeah and it seems like every guy hits on every girl on XBL.
Sometimes it's funny like when I was on Halo 2 and I was in a party and we joined this room full of KSI girls and one of the people in my party says "look at all dem b*****s".....that was funny.
Although I have 3 lesbians on my friends list and it's quite funny to hear guys hit on them.

So you want a dictatorship on Xbox Live with severe punishments for those accused of crimes....
Kinda like how people were severely punished when Hitler was in charge of Germany. No free speech.
I'm sorry, but I enjoy free speech too much to give it up.

Free Speech doesnt protect slander, harassment, of profanity (sadly) and besides, that'd just be countries like america. Live is worldwide. And laws vary country to country including internet laws. And i dont want a dictatorship. I want people to have some decency and stop being sexist of racist or any other ytype of discriminatory term that can apply.

We need to pitch that idea to the ESRB. It would be a good tagline to see at the bottom of a game package.

Oh, so you want conformity?
Where everyone acts the same? Thus again relating to Nazi Germany.
boys will be boys
I've only met about 3 girls online - 2 and in our clan and are nice girls down to earth girls- ask em how big their boobies are and they'll probably tell you.
I never gt to find out find out about the 3rd one- I got kicked because I was very very drunk and no one wanted me on their team
I rock when I am drunk - but I am mearly ok when I am very very drunk

No i want people to stop being total ****s and treat people respect at least on the terms of at least just their race or sex. I still think they're their fair game for being picked on if they're obnoxious, idiotic, crap at the game, or just made a joke about your mother.
While some heated games could warrant some choice words, (everyone has unwittingly screamed "f@ck! or sh!z" while in a particularly excited game moment) its the blatant sexism, racism and just plain immaturity that turns off a lot of people. This problem will undoubtedly never go away, xbox live like most online gaming is mostly anonymous, there will always be some poor unfortunate soul who doesn't have the balls to say things in real life and chooses to be an @$$hole in game to compensate. Thankfully most online games are catching up with times and implementing blocks and the sort.Fathomglow
I use foul language constantly on Xbox Live, even casually. But i never blatantly attack someone because of race or gender. It's just something I see as unecessary on live. You're only playing a game. if you really hate certain groups that much, then go join the KKK or other group like that.
Most of the time I try and shut people up, but sometimes im kidding around with my friends and call them stupid jews, but im only kidding.Kickinurazz
stuff like that with your friends is one thing, saying it to randoms is another.

If you ask me there should be more people like us teaching idiots like this a lesson. Just because a person is different from you because of race or gender doesnt mean you can harass them.
Hey I'm with you too my strategy is to mercilessly killthem every round early on untill they quit it works quite well actually.
Theres 3 of us now what should we be called? The Musketeers, Mighty Ducks, or possibly Defenders Of Women Honor Not That They Cant Do It Themselves Its Just That We Like To Help Our Fellow Man,Woman.
I know that last ones a mouthful but i think it works well.

yeah i know, but my friends arent always the only ones in the room, and other people get pissed at it, which makes NO sense at all.
You know what I think!? I think women belong in the Kitchen not on XBL!Verzul
