Rep Help

Has everyone's REP started at 3 stars? I've done a few **** on bf4 after a few nemesis kills so that may have brought my stars to 3 if it was at 5, but any help?

Xbox rep - Avoid me - Help?

Hi All,

As you all know the reputation system is flawed.
I wont lie & say i'm the best player on xbox so i get reported...lets be honest, i have said things i shouldn't have & i'm now a week into avoid me after 10 years of no offences on xbox.

Honestly its because of Overwatch, if anyone plays this game they know it can be toxic but especially at the top 500 level. I hit 101 in EU & i main a character that isn't meta so i get abused all the time & sent messages & the last couple of months iv'e started to reply because i had enough...this was obviously a bad idea.

Can anyone suggest how to get out of avoid me because i cant play anything...apparently people favouriting you & liking your clips helps as well as getting more recent players who don't report you (i have played trove as it gives you about 40 recent players every 30 minutes but its not enough)

Thanks in advance...

 

Xbox rep - Avoid me - Help?

If you sign in here you can actually see what types of complaints people are making against you.

https://enforcement.xbox.com

The first thing I would do is check there. If the common complaint is cheating then you are probably just being reported for playing a "non-meta character" that has people upset. The reputation system is designed to be resilient to abuse. So a ton of people just negging you for no reason shouldn't affect your reputation. Of course nothing is immune to issues but you have fallen through 3 levels of less then awesome feedback to get to "avoid me".

My suggestion is that you start using the mute and block functions to avoid playing with people who trigger behaviours that get you reported. If someone's says something nasty or sends you a message, block and report instead of firing back. What is very possible is that you are getting reported by people for saying things that are being provoked by the people who are reporting you.

The Trove thing likely won't work. In the same way they have tools built in to prevent abuse of using negative feedback I'm sure they thought about using games like Destiny or Trove that have hubs to build reputation back up artificially. If Overwatch brings out the worst in you try legitimately playing another game with similar levels of interaction, like Rainbow 6 Siege for a while.

My personal trick is if I want to curse someone out I mute my mic and do it. I don't get reported, I get to curse them out everyone wins. Overwatch and games like it can provoke that feeling but you simply have to find a mature way to deal with it.

As an aside I can't support any conclusion with my experience that the rep system is subject to serious abuse. I play a fair number of games and don't have a single report against me in the last 6 months. I generally find people on Xbox Live to be decent people, to the point that I can remember most of the negative experiences I've had over the last several months because they stand out to me as a rare experience.

Finally I'd have a look at this:
Microsoft’s Code of Conduct Explained for Xbox Live Customers

This is the code of conduct for Xbox Live, you agreed to it when you signed up and enforcement can be swift and brutal. If your negative communication with others encourages self harm, implies threats or is just generally very unpleasant the next steps will likely involve timed communications or multiplayer bans since your rep is bottomed out.

I don't want to sound preachy, but understanding how the system works, what you agreed to, how you act, and what sort of coping methods you can use are the best way out of this.

 

Newer accounts will always have a 3 star rep. The more you play online without gaining any bad reports or reviews the better. It will increase over time. Unless people constantly submit bad reviews on you.

 

The rep thing is broken on the 360.Your stars go up faster if you recieve negative feedback.

As said,it's just a case of playing online & your stars will go up eventualy.

 

My rep went from 7 to a 1 over night and my referred as a player is 70% and 30% avoided I think I might have been hacked or something.

 

Not sure what you mean my "a 7 to a 1" but i see you play Call of Duty games.A lot of the online community on those games will give you bad feedback just for killing them ingame so just ignore it.You're the only one who can see your rep.

 

I was unaware your REP went up with neg reviews Daft....

 

Yeah,that's how broken it is on the 360.The stars go up faster with negative rep.

 

The joys of rep eh!

Either way, I just wanted to jump in here and add that rep can only be seen by yourself on the 360 so I wouldn't worry too much about it. I look at it like a personal guideline as to how I play. I have really low rep, which means I must play really good
lol.

I think its 65% - 70% negative or something alike.

 

What I was saying it was going from a 7 to a 6 to a 7 then a 1 overnight it has been a 7 for a year now and my profile started to act up Monday and Tuesday it had changed all of a sudden. Like someone was messing with it.

 

Wait until you get on the Xbox One (if you're not already). Reputation means a lot on there, and if it's bad enough, you'll end up in some rather unpleasant lobbies. If you have a lot of friends online, prefer each other!

 

Great tip Jyxa!!!!!!

The negative features are used all the time, people forget you can prefere players also..

Stick with people you like and games are more fun IMO.

GOOD LUCK!!!

 

Oh and BTW,

Everyone here has 5 stars anyway.....

 

Murderous Joy,are you on about the number on your gamercard here on the forums? If so,that has nothing to do with your xbox live.

Or maybe your on about your tenure number.Thats the only things i can think off that would be a 6 or 7. Niether have anything to do with your rep anyway.
