So i hop on forza today and i have a Gamertag ban and im not sure why. My gamertag is by no means offensive and I have no offensive vinyl groups shared and i rarely play public lobbies or rivals, so i dont see it being for behavior. Anyone have any insight as to why i would be banned? I can play multiplayer, but i cannot access any of the marketplace features.
it’s a gamertag ban, not you have been banned because of your gamertag,
more than likely due to offensive vinyls if you still can play multiplayer
if you have any offensive ones ( don’t have to be shared) on cars that you use it will cause a ban too, due to your drivatars being used in other peoples races
my post will get deleted soon and the thread will get locked too
just thought i would comment before it does
As far as i know i dont have any offensive liveries. Most of my cars are simple paints with a few team logos here and there. Thanks for the input though.
