    As my internet connection is pants at the mo, I was bored and start looking at my own profile.. and I noticed that I have 34% Negative Rep... and thought wtf? As like most ppl on here (i'm guessing) I don't run around stealing care packages, or waiting until a team mate is shot so that when i kill the other guy I get extra points?


    I kinda thought for a moment, how pissed off I'd be if I was banned or summit and imagined there'd be f**k all I could do about it.

    Anyone else here have experience of this? Is it anything to be concerned about? Any way of fixing it?

    The only way you can get a suspension from bad rep is communication and with that there has to be a few complaints filed for the same thing.

    I wouldnt worry about it 34% negative ha ha i'd love it mines a lot worse.

    if it does bother you send a message to friends asking for good rep , i'll send you some later when i'm on.

    Cheers for that Shammy. I'd like to think I got the rep for p*ssing someone off by killin their sorry ass a number of times.. which is how I'd imagine you got yours :D

    When you say "communication", are you talking about the likes of that English lad the other night?

    I think I've racked up 18 days on this game since last November, I'd be f'n sickened if it was wiped out...

    Is this only on the xbox this rep stuff is?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,009 ✭✭✭Shammy


    Yeah but there needs to be an amount of complaints ,

    Take for example Halo wars , its an rts game where when playing 2v2 or 3v3 you dont have communication with the enemy, after a few weeks of playing it i ended up with 34% trash talk considering the above plus i have my settings on private , people will just submit bad review because they feel like it.

    We've tested out on how to get a suspension , if there is something on your bio thats slightly offensive , even if its starred out e.g f**k , you will still get a suspension, as for commuication complaints it takes 10 of them.

    I've gotten two people give me bad rep. I have a feeling it was very early in my MW2 days, when I spawn trapped people on Wasteland. It might actually coincide with my best ever killstreak of 35.

    I've never had anyone give me a "Prefer" status though. *sob* :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,507 ✭✭✭Finical


    I have 77% avoided and 23% preferred. I'm sure I got rep of the guy that claimed I had a mod the last day. :pac:

    In hindsight I know now:DHad it as my motto since I first got the xbox which is nearly years ago.

    Mind you I thought I was a bit better at FPS's but it took me 3 years to piss someone off enough to only report me now:o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,456 ✭✭✭Jev/N


    I think I have an 80 something % avoided stat, couldn't really care to be honest as it'll just stop me being paired up with people who didn't like me. Mostly MW2 play so it's not surprising really.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,158 ✭✭✭Enigma IE


    20% of people avoided me for quitting early, go figure?

    ;)

    Rage Quitting must count so !!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 188 ✭✭Anthony Walsh


    I haven't checked mine in a long time, I used to have 54% avoided, i'd say its about 104% now :p people hate me that much


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,238 ✭✭✭Gelio


    if you think about it most people will have negative rep because people will go to the effort of giving you negative but they wont go to the effort of giving most players they play with a positive

    if that makes sense :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,055 ✭✭✭Cossax


    Where's this rep and avoided/preferred stuff?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,009 ✭✭✭Shammy


    Press your middle button , go right , right again , go into profile and down to view rep.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,055 ✭✭✭Cossax


    14% preferred and 86% avoided.
    66% for unsporting behaviour (I'm guessing hanging around the enemies' spawn point when they only had one point in Domination or maybe using a shotgun indoors by C in Favela)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 356 ✭✭Alan_007_


    I checked mine out of interest a few nights ago and im still at 100% :).Am i in the minority here?I spose im just lucky.
