    OP your son could have been suspended for beating another gamer on a football game eg fifa or pro evo or another game and the other gamer didnt like it and filed a complaint against your son, as far as i know you cant find out what he was suspended for,

    i think people could get away with what they say down the headset. well how could you prove what someone said? i think if you cheat in some way they can suspend you as well as for anything you write. i reported someone once when i saw in their profile the line i'm gonna shoot you down like a....... i am sure you can workout what the last word was.

    If only cinemas were as draconian.

    I trust you are docking the appropriate sum from the little darling's pocket money until his ban is served? Or are you taking his side over his antisocial behaviour?

    I wish i'd thought of that! :rotfl:

    Don't talk to me about cinema's though lol, throwing popcorn and turn McDonalds straws into soggy paper launchers the pepper the screen....
    They think they can get away with it in the dark, a friend of mine got sick of having his seat kicked and after telling the young chap 3 times, he turned around, grabbed him by his jumper and launched him into the empty seats 4 rows ahead of us :rotfl:

    what "anti-social" behaviour are you talking about? I stated quite clearly that i pay close attention to what he says (when I'm there which is 99% of the time as he's 13 years old) and mostly it's having a laugh with his mates from school and also a bit of playing with people from different countries. I think you've got a bit carried away with some of the antics described by one of the other posters and are perhaps attributing them to my son?

    I doubt your son was suspended for shouting on a game, If they did then they would have to suspend 99.5% of the Xbox Live community.....

    How would you know whether what he's doing on the screen is anti-social? He may be behaving verbally.
    I'll give you an example.... There's a game for young children called "Roblox" it's a bit like a lego world where they build things and chat and shoot eachother with silly guns.
    Take one normally well behaved young boy, age 9. He seemed to be playing really nicely and having fun, until I ask what he's doing. He then tells me in a silly voice "im making a naked lady with big boobs *giggle* *giggle* ", which on closer inspection was horrifyingly true, he destroyed somebody elses work (which other kids were cursing him for) and built an insanely huge naked lady out off the online lego blocks. He was then shocked that he got a permanent ban.
    Another 10yr old playing Call Of Duty online (xbox live), got bored and started shooting/killing his own team because the enemy were too good to beat.

    I think what im trying to say, is that without actually getting into it yourself, you never really know what they're upto. If you beleive the ban was wrong, there must be a forum or a phoneline or something you can do in order to resolve the issue.
