To the guy who banned me...

So yesterday I decided that while I was packing to go away from my extremely boring life of work for a bit of vacation during the Thanksgiving season, I wanted to play some XBox Live.  I turned on my 360 and went about cleaning up some while the system loaded and logged me in at the home screen.

I get into a party with some friends and decided to kick it old school with some Burnout Revenge, because Burnout Paradise sucks ass - whole other story.  Come to find out, good buddy Val bought a used copy of the game and the fuck ups at GameStop put Paradise in her Revenge case.  As I said, Paradise blows, so she was very pissed and decided to go back to GameStop and yell at some fools.

I decided to watch some Netflix over Live while I waited for her to get back so I could squash her like racing bug that she is (<3's)

In the middle of watching The Office, I get a message telling me to log back into Live to continue watching my show. I try to log back, it fails, I try again, it fails again. So I go back to the dashboard and try again. This time when I try, I get an error that tells me that I have been banned until thanksgiving Day.

WTF!?!  I haven't played an intense multi player game in 3 days, how can I get banned for a CoC violation?  So I called the XBox Live support and confirmed that they are all legally retarded in 17 countries.  The guy was no help because "apparently" Micro$oft doesn't post the specific violation you have committed.  So, I have been banned and don't know why, but then I got to thinking.

After a phone conversation with Val, we came to the conclusion that it must have been that little shit head fucker we met during a Texas Hold 'em poker game a few days earlier.  This kid was going "All In" on every hand and I said something about it.  Turns out, he had some anger issues and apparently went and told everyone on his friends list to file a complaint against me.  If indeed he did, congratulations guy, you succeeded.

So, according to M$, you can be banned for almost any reason while logged into XBox Live, at any time.  If anyone has any kind of hatred towards you, you run the risk of banishment.  While its only 3 days, and I'm takign vacation so I couldn't play anyways, it's not totally crippling.

Oh, and don't have conversation with broke people.
