Why do people swear on Xbox Live?

I really dont get it why do people swear?

is it because there really mad?

or to prove their own superiorty?

I dont know...

One time when I was in the lobby for a COD match I heard people contstantaty drop F bombs.

It got worse when I actually played, Little kids swearing and the N Bomb :o .

So can some one explain this to me, or if you swear why?

maybe because... people are used to talk like that?:|

i dont mind all the F bombs... aslong as they dont start offending someone , i'm fine with all of it... i use that kind of bad language aswell

Which "gamer zone" are you in? I don't meter my language when I play games, in the same way that I don't meter my language when I go out to bars or parties...This is recreation, not work or religion. I think it is MUCH more irritating when people make excessive noise, scream, or just say pointless things over their mics vs. hearing someone swear.

With that being said, I do not in any way condone racist remarks, and think that is absolutely grounds for a negative player review or even bans. Swearing is one thing, it is usually not targeted at a blanket group of people, and while it definitely can be hurtful, usually will not alienate an entire race or nationality. Racism, on the other hand, is completely idiotic and totally hurtful. That I can do without...

Well, I cant speak for anyone else, but I swear when I get mad on and off live.

Yes Racism is something i forgot to add , it does kind of hurt and it is very immature ...

by the way im in underground, would it make ANY difference if i went to say family or recreation?

I swear because its the way I calm myself.

I used to hit stuff but after several wholes in the wall and a swollen wrist, I just curse now.

um how old r u? im pretty sure almost everybody swears. even like 13 year olds. its a part of life. does swearing bother u?

It annoys me too. I don't mind the occasional swear word from somebody but when they constantly use it in every sentence they speak - that's why it really becomes disruptive for me. Joy for the mute feature! :DThorpe89

what if they use it like in vain? like awww (bleep)! cuz i know i slip sometimes. do u swear too sometimes tho?

The reason: MTV!

The pollution of today's youth.

People swear because adults are entitled to use adult language. When playing games with other people who have the balls to put a headset on without having any idea who they're talking to, everyone should expect and accept the usage of profanity. It's a part of life, and a part of competition. Any sport you play (basketball, football, baseball, whatever), competitors use swear words as expression. It's just a part of it. XBOX live is no different. It's competition, and people express themselves with curse words.

Yes, some people go overboard. A LOT haha, but for the most part, people just swear with some sort of control. I understand that you don't like swearing, but you can't stop it, so just mute people if they do it too much. Cheers

same for me and cussing someone happens because that other person says something beofre the game and if you win i guess or outscore that happens too
