Xbox One: MS banning users from Skype and Upload Studio for swearing
Polygon has collated a set of reports from various places, such as the Xbox forums and a Reddit thread suggesting that users were banned for uploading gameplay clips in which they use profanity, it is unclear what is considered profanity. The banned users are unable to use Upload Studio or upload any clips they captured.
Microsoft appears to have lifted the ban for one user on Reddit by the name of MakVolci, he said, ” Okay I got a hold of a Microsoft representative. They’ve told me that my standing is “good” and don’t see an issue with my account – I’m in ‘good standing’.” He later added, ” I hopped on Upload Studio about twenty minutes ago and tried it out. It is now working for me, and I was successfully able to upload my Kinect footage and DVR footage to both Xbox and SkyDrive. It appears as though the Upload Studio suspension is a 24 hour suspension, as I believe it was for me.”
One Twitter user is reporting that he’s not able to use Skype for swearing in a private call, and receiving the following message:
Users who have been banned for using profanity in their Upload Studio clips are also reportedly being banned from using Skype. Polygon has reached to Microsoft for a comment.

sir_grecomucka003 I agree with Microsoft for banning people because if im watch something on there and my little sister hears that language she'll pick it up and start saying it. Well Done Microsoft.
or you could just not let her go online.. and that way everyone else doesnt deal with this. problem solved.
Yeah you dumb bitch don't let her on

Frog Banned for swearing? That is just awful, people should be able to swear if they want, it's all over Youtube!
i agree with the first part.. but instead of youtube.. you could just say.. well idk. maybe real life? lol. but i mean, you can swear anywhere on xbox live so i find it odd that theyd ban you for swearing on skype.
