I just got a banned message, but I have no clue why. It does not stated what feature I am banned from or what was the cause, but it lets me join multiplayer and do everything but searchdesigns, which I find weird. I never even got into that much painting and designing cars, but have shared a couple for the achievements, yet nothing I shared should be bannable (no drugs, sex, bad words, explicit images, etc…) My paint jobs are all mostly a custom color and a few sponsor decals (is it a copyright issue, and if so, why are these logos provided by Forza in the game for us to use?). I am seriously confused why I am banned? And what action of mine would be abusing the find design feature to be banned solely from that? Can someone explain this to me as I really don’t get this and want to know what I did so I don’t do it again. If I don’t know what I did, and I did nothing obvious, and the message won’t tell me, how am I supposed to know not to do it again?
The only real info the message give me is that my ban is a week, and I never got a warning or an explanation of what I can do to avoid this. I am really annoyed turn ten will take hundreds of my dollars and then bans me for a week without a explanation. I pay to play, and I deserve to know why I am being denied the use of something I pay for. I mean, in the month since the launch of forza 6, I have spend hundreds on this game, purchasing in addition, the forza xbox, horizon 2, and ALL the DLC,only to get banned soon after, and this really feels like a kick in the teeth to get banned without explanation soon after giving them my money. I am now scared to dump anymore money into this, because if I am going to get random bans, I don’t want to be putting in tons of money to suddenly lose my access to the game.
Not a random ban at all, but the result of attempting to post a pedophile “Free Candy” and “Hugs” Design. That is a violation of the Xbox Live Code of Conduct, including but not limited to:
