Just who gets to decide what is ok and what isn't? Racist and homophobic comments are bad but sexism is ok? People now use the phrase 'the N-word' (and even whisper that) but use 'bitch' like it's 2-cent gum. Adam can use 's---' and 'f------ Neanderthal' on his soapbox, but what about the people that offends? I disagree, Adam. Social spheres (like XBL) are self-regulated. If you don't like it, don't go there. My young son and I used to watch every episode of X-Play until I decided that you had gotten a little too crude for us. You're still on the air and people love the show - just not my son and I.
If it doesn t already, XBL should allow offensive players to be booted from designated 'safe' areas. You can boot people who make homophobic remarks and I can boot people who say s---. If I end up playing by myself, maybe then I ll rethink my social standards. And maybe the 10-year old you heard will choose his words more carefully when he has no one willing to play with him.

Too crude on TV?
Yes, Obviously your son doesnt tell you what he hears on XBL or you probably wont let him play online anymore. You want to boot someone who says "Shit"?
For the love of humanity, i dont even know why shit is a bad word, its a word to descride the smelly waste that comes out your ass. I wonder why calling someone a penis doesnt sound as bad as being called a pussy. Is that Sexism or what?
there is no way to stop the people on XBL who are always shouting/spaming the mic...oh wait, I found PGL, Ver' nice. NEXT PROBLEM!
Team Killing, and I aint running in front of their fire either.
