Halo 4 gets tough on sexist players
Ross says that "most people look at a franchise like Halo, and automatically assume it's run by a guy," but this particular franchise is run by a few ladies, and they're not having any discriminatory nonsense in their latest sequel.
We agree with the sentiment, and hope that the harsh penalties make sure that the losers who make sexist and other offensive comments get shown the door for good. The ideal should be to make sure all forms of this offensive discrimination are squashed as far and wide as possible, no matter who's running the show.

Mortar Fair enough, it'll be a laugh to see how many people get caught. I wonder what happens when that one girl discriminates against a guy.
KiaFixieKids go ahead bannnnnn me! ill even give you IP
its IP.Standing.Up
If i know anything about girls and i do
They need help running an iso of Sims 3. So don't worry =)
First of all, Nobody cares.
Secondly, The ip you gave is super fail, and why would you just hand out your ip on a gaming website when host booters arent very hard to come by?
and last, I think if 343 wanted to ban you, they wouldnt have any trouble getting your ip, so there is no need to give it to them.

TEIR1plus2MPAA From the game and the Xbox LIVE network. um okay, they get banned from the game, fine. I can't see a ban from Xbox LIVE tho, that's just a dev's dream.
the game is kinda published by microsoft.... think they want someone saying these things about their game?
Um, the game may be published by Microsoft, but that doesn't mean anything, the developers are the ones with the game specific banhammers, and i sincerally doubt they are gonna ban people across the whole Xbox LIVE platform, unless the developers happen to also be XBLPETs

GratefulEthan Ohh I get it now.. That is why Halo sucks so bad, decisions are being made by women. I bet their fat.
It's funny because this article is inaccurate. This goes for all XBL, and this policy has been out for a while. Microsoft just chose to take 343i as an example, because a few of their top employees are female.
Also, your post makes no sense.
