Sooooooooo, I get most everything besides emblems. Really? That seems a little over sensitive. Offensive emblems hardly effect one's enjoyment of the game, while abusive players can.

How about some kind of required registration system that charges the parents every time their kid under 18 playing that game breaks one of these rules? 10$ every time the f-bomb's dropped. And don't give me that "that's unfeasible" crap, I know it's mostly unfeasible. I can daydream.

Apparently we have ourselves speech police here. Whats next? They ban people for dissing CoD or saying God's name in vein? It has a M rating, so there should be no question as to who should be playing the game and listening. If they don't want what they consider "bad" speech in the game, maybe they should replace the guns with love pillow lasers that brings people closer together and slap a Teen or below rating.

I see threatening or provoking others as bad to be clear, but "bad" language could mean anything and should never be regulated on a mature game.

Im glad theyre banning people with Modded controllers. You might as well mod your 360 if you buy one of those controllers. The way I see it, if youre using a single fire weapon like the MK14, dont get pissed and grab a auto controller when you cant get kills with it. I had enough of these annoying asses in Black Ops and MW3, I dont need it in Black Ops 2

I am 100% on board except for the language bans... I mean it does get a little ridiculous the way some gamers just cant stop swearing or dropping racial slurs, but that's where its my responsibility. If I don't want to hear it. I can mute them, plain and simple. Only in America folks can parents who aren't suppose to be buying their kids an M rated game do so and complain about the language and find appeasment. For grown adults who play and find it offensive. You're playing a game in which you are pretending to go around and murder people... Heaven forbid someone drops an F bomb... How backwards are we as a society? The same society that would rather let criminals loot New York than let the National Guard have an armed presence to deter crime... All this is being done for language because our poor little feelings might get hurt!

Treyarch's campaign/overall story is pretty good though...

Actually most people don't even read the back of the game box cover before they play.. At Treyarch here it says all online interactions are not rated in any form and as such the interactions may vary accordingly... Honestly if there is a little 5 yr old yammering into the mic about how fucking great he is and how he pwns everybody you should be able to reply accordingly and literally just make him rage quit and never play again or you could just scare the shit out of him or her... But really if you see a 5 yr old playing the game and cussing and shit just make him rage quit by being so unbelievably cheap about your kills and teabagging him every time you kill him and doing a happy dance over his dead body every single time because honestly five year olds should not be playing the game at all!!!!

They should introduce something called the CHEATERS POOL where people with known mods all get put together and fight to the death while they can't kill one another that would really teach people a lesson and if they continue using mods in the Cheaters Pool they should automatically be permanently banned. They should also introduce the Toilet Mouth Pool for all the little bugger yammering into their mic and make them all able to hear each other till they get so pissed tha they just rage quit and try to join another lobby and and are put back into another Toilet Mouth Pool that would just make my day on so many levels although I know Treyarch will not do this I would like to see that implemented into a future game where the security team is able to enforce these rules.. Treyarch is bound to fail I just know it in my heart....
