i am one of those little annoying people but i find that you enjoy conversation more if instead of swearing you find an intelligent way to insult them and confuse them

I've been pretty lucky. I've had one person go after my gamertag, which is the same time as my forum name. Turning the mike off usually is fine for me when someone decides to rave. More mainstream games like Halos, both Gears, and COD 4, have most of the preteens/teens/jerks. I've had great curse free times in L4D (except for the one guy who played mini Napoleon),TF2, and sometimes COD4.

Though I guess there was one odd game where it got strange. It was Gears 2 Horde match. One of the players was a girl, who was actually older than everyone in the game, and there were two teens (younger than me by about two to four years) who just started talking about the fact she was a girl and there respective ages. Thankfully they were diverted around Wave 4 and the matter was dropped.

Sorta, but it's like a zoo where the monkies throw racial and sexual insults at you rather than feces.

Oh and to fire up the discussion I also wanted to mention that on PSN this kind of stuf rarely happens Wich is kinda weird because PSN is free, so you would think there are alot more nutjobs there.
My theory there is that people who have a PS3 are a bit more sophisticated, such as most of my PSN friends are 20+ one of them being one of my college professors.

Tell that to a classmate of mine. (He is a PS3 fanboy, cusses in class, makes homophobic comments, assumes everyone who doesn't have a PS3 is a homosexual, etc.)

Sadly there are idiots like that on PSN. However if you've noticed PSN has a shortage of those kinds of people. Lets hope it stays that way.

If I get killed or beaten on a game I usually praise or congratulate. This is how people should be, except if you're playing against cheats. Seriously, why do you think you're better if you're cheating. MODS don't make you good at a game.

Gloating should only be used when it's a particularly good win and preferably with friends.

I'm on PSN and have heard some, but not much, abuse. Generally what i've heard is racial which is so sad. If you're on of these idiots - Grow up.

Our own Yahtzee has said it best:
"The 360 has the best online support with the Xbox Live malarkey, although the player base can be charitably described as 'lively' and uncharitably described as 'a bunch of hooting dickholes!'"

I'm just not big into the whole multiplayer experience. More often than not I'd rather just play with bots. Assuming the A.I. isn't complete shit you can get an experience that is at least comparable to "Live" multiplayer, just minus the lag, swearing, and general unlikeable fuckbags. If only the guys at Bungie had worked on bot functionality instead of just constantly releasing new map packs of questionable quality for the Halo series.

Yeah, I've sworn on Xbox Live, but to be perfectly honest, it was because I happened to be chastising some camping cheap-ass in Gears of War 2 along with a bunch of people.

Camping is a legitimate strategy, what's the problem.

The guy had planted grenades on both sides of the bridge (2 on each). All he ever did was just hide there and do fuck all. Wouldn't have been bad if he got a sniper rifle and used it to pick off the opposing side, but his kills were mostly grenade kills.
