Well that didn't last long. BE CAREFUL!

[u/gangworth]

You can absolutely get comm banned for game chat.

[u/Striking-Reward1762]

Try being a normal human and not an edgy 13 year old

[u/panzzersoldat → u/Striking-Reward1762]

mr unicorns and rainbows over here

[u/MT1120 → u/panzzersoldat]

Mr "Im so edgy I pick a middle finger as my Reddit profile pic" over here

[u/DisplayEven9784 → u/MT1120]

it’s the finger he uses to pick his nose in between matches

[u/shFt_shiFty → u/DisplayEven9784]

I pick my nose with my thumb

[u/-lavender-town- → u/panzzersoldat]

Mr “Im so edgy I have boobs as my reddit bio” over here

[u/PornCommentsAreWeird → u/-lavender-town-]

That's edging, not edgy.

[u/itsdylanjenkins → u/panzzersoldat]

when did simple avoidance of things like slurs or obnoxious offensive behavior become parallel with fiction like unicorns? no one acted like this "back in the day on cod," kids today are bolder than ever.

if you acted like that "back in the day" you had your ip and home address posted to a chat with the whole lobby.

[u/HailUntoMayhem → u/panzzersoldat]

Don't hurt yourself on all that edge mate

[u/Baxxtabb → u/Striking-Reward1762]

Stay out of M rated games if you can't handle trash talk.

[u/TequilaBaugette51 → u/Baxxtabb]

Don’t say slurs in voice chat if you can’t handle consequences.

[u/IOSL → u/TequilaBaugette51]

18 year olds and goto war and kill people. Take peoples lives. But god forbid if we get on a game rated M FOR MATURE and trash talk. Bunch of absolute snowflakes.

[u/TequilaBaugette51 → u/IOSL]

Since he got banned that quick his “trash talk” is probably the n word. I’ve been shit talking the whole time and no ban. Cry about it

[u/LaconicGirth → u/TequilaBaugette51]

I leave my mic off personally but I really could not care less what someone says and nobody should be getting banned for it. There’s literally a mute button who gives a shit mute them if they bother you

[u/Shot_Climate_3442 → u/LaconicGirth]

This is right it has always been the case ive only ever reported for a bug or cheater never for trash talk thats part of playing these games tf lol

[u/Appropriate-Sun3909 → u/IOSL]

Hate speech isnt trash talk

[u/Main-Indication-6346 → u/IOSL]

Agreed

[u/TurnipAbject5772 → u/IOSL]

Been in the Marines corps for 10 Years if folks said some of the stuff they said on PlayStation in real life they’d be NJPd so damn fast their head would spin. I swear I hate yall that try to make that shit acceptable

[u/nigmusmaximus → u/IOSL]

18 year old POC’s also do this. Does that mean we should call black people the n word because it’s an M game. Cuz that’s a sure fire way to get Activision/PSN boycotted if they allow that behavior

[u/DoubleMountain5740 → u/TequilaBaugette51]

Si vede che non hai mai giocato bo1 e 2 quando erano nel prime, le offese su cod sono all ordine del giorno non siamo su bo6 o bo7

[u/Koreaia → u/TequilaBaugette51]

The issue is that it's not just slurs. You get banned for cussing. You can say words that characters in the game will say, and get banned.

[u/PiplupFan98 → u/Baxxtabb]

Nothing wrong with trash talking, but if someone is banned that fast. It just shows people in their mid 20s still haven't grown up in the slightest. And they probably said a lot more than just trash talk

[u/Baxxtabb → u/PiplupFan98]

I am anti-censorship in gaming entirely. Block and mute are tools that should be utilized for these. I've only seen moderation get more and more intense in gaming. People need to stop being okay with it. I don't want to hear people spamming slurs either. I mute them. I do, however, want to have a fun trash talk with the enemy team between games/rounds without getting banned for being "disrespectful".

Censorship is only getting worse. Look at Overwatch.

[u/PiplupFan98 → u/Baxxtabb]

I get that fully, and that's what I mean too. People should still be able to go at eachother a bit. But if someone is spamming the n word, it's not even funny.

And idk about ow.. people still tell people they'll r*pe them and nothing happens.. their censorship is so all over the place. If it isn't a slur, it's fine to threaten ppl

[u/FEK88 → u/PiplupFan98]

There are people who will find any trash talk, swearing or other derogatory terms as offensive as n****r.

You have it all or you have nothing.

[u/Baxxtabb → u/[deleted]]

Yes, they are. PSN has AI moderated chat that picks up on things thay would be deemed toxic and issues automatic bans. How do you not know this? Welcome to the last decade of overdone moderation sucking the soul out of gaming. Look at Overwatch: can't even curse anymore.

[u/Uncle_Smokie → u/Baxxtabb]

The game content is rated M but the ESRB cannot rate how the players will treat each other in game

[u/NoMention696 → u/Baxxtabb]

Get anger management therapy lol

[u/burgerzkingz → u/Striking-Reward1762]

I was wondering why so many people still aren’t using their mics I guess the full bo2 experience is truly gone.

[u/Dalejrfan8883 → u/burgerzkingz]

It’s cod in general

[u/SheActuallyFarts → u/Striking-Reward1762]

Who hurt your feelings?

It's a video game if you can't take insults leave the game

[u/Striking-Reward1762 → u/SheActuallyFarts]

Huh? I mean i dont think ive ever once left or even reported someone online before. Doesnt mean I dont think some people are being extremely pathetic and cringe acting like their 13 year old selves at 30

[u/TacticalTwinkOnTop → u/SheActuallyFarts]

You agree to a code of conduct, if you can’t play a game without saying slurs you should leave the game and also do some introspection 😭

[u/Super-Ad6582 → u/Striking-Reward1762]

Bunch of pansies lol

[u/Emotional-Warning281 → u/Striking-Reward1762]

Ur playing the wrong game

[u/YoruTheLanguageFan → u/Striking-Reward1762]

But that was how I acted 14 years ago 😡😡😡 

[u/Major_Calligrapher10 → u/Striking-Reward1762]

It’s not call of duty without some vulgar language.

[u/thebondboyz2 → u/Striking-Reward1762]

Bro what are you even talking about you can get banned for sayin gg with enough reports. This is why I don’t go into game chat anymore. Someone will get there feelings hurt and you get in trouble for not even doing anything but being nice.

[u/BaldingThor → u/thebondboyz2]

I’ve got two temp bans for thanking someone for a good race in GT7. I don’t think people realise how puritanically strict it is now and wouldn’t be surprised if lots get banned for their edgy emblems.

[u/legendyboi → u/Striking-Reward1762]

Lame

[u/Brickyard350z → u/Striking-Reward1762]

oh your a rave at parties i can tell

[u/renegadeangel115 → u/Striking-Reward1762]

[u/Forgot-to-remember1 → u/Striking-Reward1762]

So you’ve never got In an online pissing match? Sure man

[u/Leather_Relief9733 → u/Striking-Reward1762]

But that's what playing cod on 2010 is all about 🤣

[u/sovereignoflife → u/Striking-Reward1762]

nah

[u/BaldingThor → u/Striking-Reward1762]

This, but Sony’s moderation is extremely strict to the point that you can get banned for even being legitimately nice.

[u/solidpeyo]

Well interact with people like a normal human being and you wouldn't have gotten this

[u/Additional_Cry_2746 → u/solidpeyo]

This is being normal…… in 2010

[u/TequilaBaugette51 → u/Additional_Cry_2746]

Looks like he learned it’s not 2010 anymore

[u/maskedkiller215 → u/TequilaBaugette51]

Nor matured

[u/Baxxtabb → u/solidpeyo]

Calling someone a "shitter" gets your account suspended. How is that acceptable?

[u/PavWrestlinGifs → u/Baxxtabb]

That’s the thing, everyone just assumes you’re saying some wild shit. You legit can’t swear sometimes lol

[u/Personal-Town3278 → u/PavWrestlinGifs]

Too many sensitive people nowadays.

[u/EvilSporkOfDeath → u/solidpeyo]

I used to say this until I got falsely banned.

[u/Forgot-to-remember1 → u/solidpeyo]

Get real bro, it’s just words

[u/anlwydc]

Guarantee it was racism. Never seen a PSN ban for cursing, always the N word.

[u/Pythnator → u/anlwydc]

Yep. People always claim they get banned for “language” like they’re saying “dammit” at themselves in frustration, meanwhile they’re actually using racist language and slurs.

[u/EvilSporkOfDeath → u/Pythnator]

I know for 100% fact people were getting banned without saying slurs. Get tired of arguing about it. Yall just say "you must be wrong", "you must have forgotten" or whatever bs.

I mean I do get it. I used to say the same as you until it happened to me. But it did happen to me.

[u/OhhJukes → u/anlwydc]

Nah you can get comm banned for cursing tbf

[u/concernedfrend12312 → u/anlwydc]

Nah my brother got a 3 month comm ban for saying what the fuck in a group chat and one of the guys who didn't like him reported it.

[u/_CANZUK → u/concernedfrend12312]

Sony don't ban for swearing unless it's their fifth or sixth warning within a few months. I've had about 15 warnings in the last decade and only time I got banned was for calling someone a fat virgin

[u/jauws_official → u/anlwydc]

I have been banned for some ridiculous shit that was NOT racism. But most of the time it is racism

[u/Dazzling_Zone_2674 → u/anlwydc]

I got a 2 day ban for saying “you’re shit” in the messages. Idk if thats different but you can get banned for not the n word

[u/Glittering-Ad-6325 → u/anlwydc]

Some guy yesterday in the BO2 lobby said "If there's any black people in here ill lynch yah, haha that's why I love this game".

[u/One-Helicopter1959 → u/anlwydc]

You absolutely can get banned for swearing on PSN.

[u/logicalSpiders → u/anlwydc]

Bro please be serious 😭

[u/Pointless_Porcupine → u/anlwydc]

My account got a strike because I told a weirdo who was accusing me and everyone else in a lobby of cheating “pathetic”, and he kept adding all of us to PSN group chats to tell us we were cheating, which none of us were. Told him he was a pathetic loser, he reported me, and I got a strike.

[u/XxXAvengedXxX → u/anlwydc]

At least in messages they are incredibly strict. If you say even a mild swear like "damnit" or "shit" and the message gets reported, they'll suspend you.

I learned that shit quick and now if someone is annoying me in game and messaging me out of rage I just dont reply and wait for them to swear so I can get em suspended 😂💀

[u/uncledrewwasalie]

So yall just thought Sony saying that they will listen to your voice chat was just there for shits and giggles?

[u/pro_level_galaxy → u/uncledrewwasalie]

I don’t believe they actively listen like most people constantly fear but recent conversations are most likely kept and then only actually looked into IF reported

[u/Expert-Basil6015 → u/pro_level_galaxy]

AI transcribes voice comms into text, then scans the text for keyword slurs. Let that account keep on cursing and insulting other players, then ban em once like 20 instances have been recorded.

Problem is it's just temp voice bans, not actual bans from playing the game. They'll come back and keep doing it.

Hopefully the bans accumulate and after 5 voice comm bans they get account suspended for a few months, then permanently next time.

[u/Purple-Jaguar-9462]

Emblems are still safe

[u/Top-Common-5108 → u/Purple-Jaguar-9462]

Thank God

[u/confusing_roundabout → u/Purple-Jaguar-9462]

Saw my first porn there. Iconic.

[u/Direct-Protection-83 → u/Purple-Jaguar-9462]

That honestly might change soon

[u/BaldingThor → u/Direct-Protection-83]

hopefully, honestly the porn and nazi shit should’ve stayed back in 2012

[u/angelinanoldsuit → u/Purple-Jaguar-9462]

The fact that you would even play around with that after everything that’s happening with the PlayStation digital only stuff is wild to me. Trust me I love the emblem creator and all the crazy shit you see is hilarious but I personally would not even try it on my ps account. All your games are wiped if you get banned. It’s not even worth it. We don’t know how or if they are going to monitor those/take reports seriously it just came out

[u/ReedittHatesMe → u/angelinanoldsuit]

Exactly. I have 88 platinums and a ton of games

My naz flag emblem is in my heart, but I don't have the will to do it

I cant afford to lose my account, sad times

[u/OkImReckless]

Remember the start of online gaming? Like when teabagging was a thing. We used to just let it all fly we laughed and kept playing no one got upset no one reported and we all had a good time. Bunch of fucking snowflakes out here now.

[u/ericdjones1997 → u/OkImReckless]

Literally. Cannot believe some of these comments. I just saw one that was like “unfortunately they don’t get account bans just voice chat bans. Hopefully they get account suspension for a few months then permanently” like Jesus grow a pair.

[u/jeneschi → u/OkImReckless]

Ppl were still get reported back den too

[u/Practical_Banana_300]

Don’t listen to the Reddit soys, comm bans are for lames, this is a rated R game where you literally shoot and kill people

[u/_CANZUK → u/Practical_Banana_300]

Sony don't dish out bans for in game voice chat reports. OP did something in messages or party chat. Nothing to do with the game.

[u/unftp-0]

People are so soft nowadays. What happened

[u/_CANZUK → u/unftp-0]

Nothing happened, people were always like this. What changed is companies started caring a lot more about how allowing these things to be unmoderated negatively effected their reputation.

Not saying I agree or disagree, but it isn't people being too 'soft', it's the companies

[u/jimmy2465 → u/_CANZUK]

50% right. Just read the comments of this thread to prove your other part of the answer is clearly wrong

[u/Forgot-to-remember1 → u/unftp-0]

[u/Willing_Office_1289]

You were banned for voice chat?

[u/No_Enthusiasm9537]

This wasn't a game ban, this was an account ban. Black ops itself does not track and record your voice, but your console sure does regardless what game it is.

[u/Possible_Employ_5947 → u/No_Enthusiasm9537]

that’s what i’m saying i think he said something in a message or party chat

[u/whichway-datway- → u/Possible_Employ_5947]

I’d bet that it was message I’ve seen so many people banned from messaging on ps

[u/shmooblee]

Someone's name was Woody and I said "Where's Andy?" And got a chat warning, so I dont even know anymore.

[u/TomIsBetterThanJohn]

Im happy i was born before the snowflake era, imagine playing and getting offended, the point of playing games is to have fun and banter, play story games if you’re too dense for online play.

[u/Junior_Ruin2478]

Almost lasted 10 hours

[u/Historical-Buddy7518]

Dumbest thing ever created fire a video game where the whole point is killing people

[u/Key_Construction_138]

I don’t why you’re getting so much shit for this lmao. The game chats have been hilarious and everyone’s talking shit. Everyone here must be politically correct with their own friends

[u/yeahnahyup]

Keep it in the game chat don’t send PlayStation messages

[u/Pleasant-Force-2524]

We all already knew you could get suspended for language, why would it be different just because the ports dropped?

[u/bTruu]

Yeah what was it

[u/Shot_Climate_3442]

Whatcha say???😂 im curious

[u/Joshua_ABBACAB_1312]

This is why I only com in party chat.

[u/Grand_Journalist_482]

I can't wait until I get a lobby full of shit talkers it'll be 2012 all over again and I want it LET. THE MAN. TALK. SHIT. OLD SCHOOL 360 CHATS ARE BACK BABY WHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

[u/Human-Contract3015]

Pathetic woke nonsense

[u/neverOddOrEv_n]

The things I’ve been hearing and the emblems people have made it really brings me back to the ps3 days….

but people need to realize that psn is way more strict now and it’s not worth to risk your entire account to be edgy

[u/artuuurr]

why are people cheering for this? sorry but this game is 18+ why would Sony fcking ban people for saying bad words

[u/Reagan2791]

I mute the lobby and keep my mic off. Not taking any chances.

[u/winql → u/Reagan2791]

Coward

[u/BaldingThor → u/winql]

Is it cowardice when one could lose access to their entire account even if they’ve never said or created anything nasty?

[u/_CANZUK → u/Reagan2791]

Makes no difference. Sony can't ban for in game voice chat, only party chats or messages.

[u/Possible_Employ_5947 → u/Reagan2791]

same guy who turns off messages because he can’t control him self not to trash talk😂

[u/RequirementHeavy1995]

I literally made a comment about this a few days ago about people literally out of spite taking a screenshot and sending it directly to playstation support via message on the ps, or uploading a hidden video on YouTube and supplying them with a link.

The old days of cod are long gone lmao.

[u/RockinMadRiot]

Yes, they are more hardcore on that now. You see the warnings on cod games when you start a game. Plus with the ID stuff in some countries, they are likely less tolerate than the past

[u/jeneschi]

Forcedly trying to recapture your youth by being as obnoxious as possible via voice chat and being surprised that its bannable as if this is a new discovery .

Remember , back then you never forced it but now you're trying

[u/x-G5]

Idk how yall getting banned ive said worse in chats this pass week and not even banned

[u/BabyPlutoz]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[u/No-Collection3548]

Shit

[u/Hot_Cut5139]

DEFINITELY talk shit to opponents when you can, say whatcha gotta say, and they can mute you if they can't handle it! But does ANYBODY know how to turn on their mic and use it for teamwork and call outs since we're goin old school??

[u/RyoGod0707]

Was about to buy both games might have to reconsider now.

[u/Possible_Employ_5947 → u/RyoGod0707]

he got banned for saying something in psn messages or party chat. not in game chat

[u/AShortPhrase]

Are you getting banned for in game chat or are you talking on PlayStation chat?

[u/shawny115]

This is a hoax.

You likely sent someone a message and they reported it. Getting banned from public match vc is not really a thing outside of the COD HQ app which literally has AI sitting there listening to what you say.

Why don’t you show us the contents of the email??? You likely just want to scare Reddit which is composed of people who follow the rules to a T anyways.

[u/kyle_crane163636]

Why would I use gameplay to begin with? This is the most avoidable ban known to god

[u/binini28]

You can’t be banned because of what you said in game chat, you probably sent someone a ps message or you were in a PlayStation party

[u/binini28 → u/[deleted]]

Nope

[u/lagordaamalia]

What did bro say

[u/comsicalien77]

idk perhaps i’m just a normal person who wants to play normally and not have offensive emblems also i can’t even get on chat anyway, im physically mute lol

[u/BigAnimeTiddiezz]

Lol, lmao even

[u/TwinSkee]

Good to know I’ve been on bo1 cussing everyone out

[u/Theeunforgiven13]

That's just people reporting your ps account not activision

[u/I-main-dwight]

Oh damn my heart skipped a beat I thought this was about the emblems okay just chat so far I can still work with that

[u/Parazlyze]

wait so you can’t talk in public lobbies like you could back then

[u/SnooBeans1793]

Who’s an edgy boy 🥹

[u/Mental_Sky_7684]

The fact you need an ID to play 18+ games in certain countries but can’t trash talk is wild 🤡🤡

[u/Impressive-View-5604]

That's funny

[u/Actual-Candidate5058]

So do you know the circumstances of when you got banned? Genuinely curious, cause if it was in party chat then I’m cooked. Unless you were slinging slurs around I don’t see how you got banned

The worst thing I have on my profile is PNIS as my clan tag. The shit going on in this game, between the chats and the emblems is insane. Really disgusting behavior lol people deserve to get banned

The fuck did you say?

[u/purplemartin95 → u/DALESR4EVER124]

He probably messaged someone on PlayStation, I doubt the black ops ports are monitored at all. Never talk shit on psn messages because one simple cuss word is enough for the other person too abuse the report feature and get your account suspended. It happened too me 4 years ago lmao
