    Why is the LFG feature so terrible


    I have been having a very frustrating issue with the LFG feature on the app and console. I play Call of Duty Warzone. Specifically, I play a lot of the Plunder/Blood Money game modes. We all know what a terrible experience it is to be subjected to matchmaking
    in COD, and so I try to make LFG posts, where I type in the description that I am looking for players to squad up with in Plunder mode. I also mention that I am going for WINS, not KILLS.

    This is where the LFG feature has really been trying my patience lately. Everytime I finish the details and tags in my post, I go to submit my post and I am met with a " lets keep it clean - remove inappropriate content then try posting again ." It never
    fails.

    For the sake of professionalism, I am going to try not to use any "foul language" but I do want to stress how incredibly, immeasureably frustrating it is to not be able to mention the game mode that I am trying to recruit players for in my LFG post. This
    is really ticking me off. Microsoft needs to dial their language/profanity filters WAY back. This is friggin ridiculous. There is a vast genre of game modes available to play on Xbox. There is also a spectrum of ratings for those games. The fact that I am
    not able to use the words "Plunder" or "kill" in a Looking for Group post for a Call of Duty game is breathtakingly dumb.

    I really wish they would stop babying their consumers like this. There are parental controls that can be added to hide what Microsoft considers "offensive language" (you know, words like darn, fudge, poo, etc) from the right age groups. This is really irritating.
    I would love to hear back from a representative of Xbox or Microsoft regarding this issue. Even if no solution is found, I am genuinely curious as to why those two words I mentioned above are blocked from being used in LFG posts.

    So just to finish up, I want to make it clear that as of right now, I cannot use the LFG feature to find people to squad up with on COD Warzone because Microsoft in their infinite wisdom have decided that the word "Plunder" is a nono word, and even though
    it is a game mode in the game I am wanting to make an LFG post for, I am not allowed to use it or no supper for me.

    :)

    Enforcment

    Did you say that you're giving items through the looking for game feature? If so, then that's why you got banned. You are only allowed to post LFGs for playing with others, not trading/giving items.

    If you want to play multiplayer in these games, then why not create a session on trueachievements.com or use the LFG feature on the console. Chances are you will find other players to play with in these games.

    Communication ban on nothing wrong

    So your saying can’t use a LFG to use an in game mechanic all because Xbox won’t allow it. Then why do they allow the game on there platform, and why is 90% of the LFGs for fallout the same kind of posts
