So my account has been uner review for the last few days, because I sold 5 glow / color change cars on Forza 4. I was 100% unaware you could be banned for doing this, as the person who gave me the glow paint last week never mentioned anything about getting in trouble. I also think it’s pretty sad to ban someone from a game that is almost dead anyways, considering that the DLC has been pulled, not to mention most people are on Forza Horizon 2, #5 and #6. This is so wrong, because all I was trying to do was make more interest in this game, not exploit something. I swear to god I didnt know this was something wrong to do. This is also my VERY first time getting into trouble on ANY Xbox game! I pride myself in being a very sporting player, and treat everyone with alot of respect, even if I dont know them that well. I also race very clean online, and even call my spots on track, just like a real life professional spotter would. Anyways, what do I do now ? is there any way I can contact someone from Turn 10 ?? Please unban me, this is very very upsetting, because I have a League, and we were getting ready to start a season!
I would also like to add that you guys gave a warning to my friend for doing the exact same thing a total of 6 times, and you throw a complete ban on me because it’s my first offense…that’s the part I dont feel ok about! At least issue me a warning ?
Attempted sale on the Auction House of the illegal “glow” cars is a violation of the Xbox Live Code of Conduct, in addition to illegally going outside the bounds as intended by the developers of the in-game livery editor. Whether you or someone else created the items is immaterial according to the regulations:
"What are examples of conduct that is prohibited in Xbox? (Note: the examples below are just a few examples of Conduct prohibited by the Microsoft Code of Conduct. Just because something isn’t on this list doesn’t mean it’s OK.)
Don’t create, share, use, or promote prohibited Content.
Don’t cheat or tamper. For example, don’t:
Use unauthorized hardware or software Exploit game vulnerabilities or glitches Make unauthorized modifications to your account profile or its contents (e.g., tenure, Avatar, game saves, Gamerscore, achievements) Intentionally play with someone who is using unauthorized software or methods"
Neither imposed bans nor the enforcement of the regulations by Turn 10 are discussed on these forums. You may send an email to forzafb@microsoft.com, if you wish.
Oh trust me I’ve already sent a PM to the correct person, as well as an email to Turn 10. I didnt know it was wrong to do, and obviously I am of age to know not to do something that isnt alright. I just want unbanned so I can race Online. The game is full of people with modded cars, setups, etc. Go after them, not me! What got under my skin is, not getting a warning to stop doing it, when other people have been given up to 6 Warnings…just my 2 cents but, that’s not at all fair!
Does Turn 10 have a Phone Number ? I’d love to calmly explain everything that happened in full detail.
