  Played a few games in the last weeks and have gotten a few foul mouthed, derogatory conversation from them. Swearing, insults, etc. get the picture. I’ve complained to WGT about sanction but was told just block them, which I did. Anything else you can do about these idiots. Most players very professional. Thanks

  Take screenshots of the chatbox and send to WGT. If the transgression is severe enough they may even get banned.

  To take screenshots easily with Windows 10. Go into...

  Windows settings > Gaming

  ...and switch on the Xbox Game Bar. Then when you want to take a screenshot, just hit the Windows Key + Alt + Print Screen keys. A screenshot will be captured and saved automatically to a folder named Captures in your Videos folder.

  If there is a lot of text that you want to capture in a scrolling chat window. Ensure the Xbox Game Bar is on by following the steps in the paragraph above. Then scroll the chat window to go through all the text you want captured, (scroll at a speed at which you can read it). When you've finished scrolling, press the Windows Key + Alt + G keys, this will save a recorded video clip of you scrolling through the chat, and it will be saved in a Captures folder in your Videos folder.

  Make sure that the window you want captured is active (clicked on) before pressing the appropriate keyboard shortcut.

  Or, you can use *snip* all have it. Snip it, save it in pictures, then upload it from your pics anywhere you want it to land...

  Alternative method

  If he comes back and says, "None of that works, I'm on a Mac!", I'll eat my hat, lol.

  Ketchup anyone?

  Whoa... relax, dude.

  There's nothing more frustrating than watching those potty-mouthed idiots come back after a week of temporary ban and keep on doing what they do the best. Reporting them to CS team is not an effective solution.

  I'm thinking about creating Hall of Idiots or Hall of Morons in my profile page. I've screencaptured so many mind-blowing comments and profanities over the years that you would be even able to publish a little book with them. Their names will be all uncensored since it's on my profile page so it's not against the guidelines, I suppose. I know some will be inducted into multiple halls, now that's gonna be some achievement right there! LOL

  I must have been extremely fortunate ( or forgetful ), in my ten years here I only remember two times I ran into unsavory types.I never play for credits, that may have something to do with it, but, Alt & matchplay were my favorite modes of play, so, you're looking @ 1000's of interactions with random people. Hell, I,ve pissed off a lot more people than that IRL :)

    Ditto Doc . Before the last couple of years I could count them on one hand . Within the last couple years . I have encountered more that have an attitude . Or insisted on being completely silent . And a couple only that used profanity . The OP says ....

  Bergerman440:

  a few foul mouthed, derogatory conversation from them. Swearing, insults, etc. get the picture.

    First of all . If a player did bother you . It should be enough just to block him.

    Second if you happened to record any of it and submit that . Then 1 problem taken care of .

    Third . Even if you do not block them . The chances that you will ever run into them again are next to nothing . This is the truth .

    If by chance one did run into that player again . ( which you wouldn't ) . Chances are he would be acceptably respectable . And had just had a bad day before .

    I am the type that doesn't care if a player has an AH F__K ! moment . I have those myself . But am careful about who the rest of my party/group is of course .

    No one should have to listen to , see or hear insults thrown at him or herself . Or anyone else in the party/group . Ever . It is good that there is so little of that . That it is not a problem here .

    What

  terryntx:

  says has a lot of truth to it .

    One being that if you cannot handle a little tough chat here . Would you fall apart IRL ?

    Or reverse of that .  IRL one might even tolerate things even much worse than this .

  Happened to me too. Had it recorded and turned it in, don't know if anything came of it.

  I just turned off the chat option so I play muted. So........If we're playing a round and I don't answer back you know why.
