Treyarch bans Users for Creating Offensive Emblems/Paint Jobs In BO3

4.4

Treyarch Studios is striking down on users who have an offensive emblem design or custom paint jobs and permanently banning them from using this feature ever again.

The offensive part boils down to using a design that relates to a terrorist organization, dicks and designs related to nazis. If you fit the criteria for such a design, you will receive the following error message and permanently get banned from using this feature in the multiplayer mode. This applies to both the emblems and the paint shop in the game.

Keep in mind that this is a permanent ban for the user meaning there won’t be any way to use custom emblems and access the paint shop after this ban. If you want to use this feature, it is best to use them in a way that shows your creativity instead of simply going for something offensive.

This is not something that Treyarch hasn’t done before, as it has happened with the past games in the series as well. Call of Duty: Black Ops 1 and 2 also featured similar bans for people that decided to abuse the system.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 is available now on the PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One. It was developed by Treyarch Studios and published by Activison.

I used to love doing this in BO2 and it was pretty funny looking at other peoples emblems that they created... I thought the game was supposed to be a 18 anyway as well?

You've literally gotta have the intelligence of a squeaker to think any of these types of emblems are hilarious.

Synybun
Daniel its only a video game , and they are now banning people for emblems

They're only banning you from using the paint jobs... If you're going to abuse it why would you expect to not get punished?

Exactly, seems like we have a lot of underlying people wanting to us KKK and swastika like emblems.
Or penis, and if you do that you must be like 10 your self lol.

I don't mind the dick and girl emblems as much as the Swastika and KKK oriented ones. There's no reason for people to have emblems like this and there's no excuse for it, it's not funny at all. Issuing the perma ban to this immature people assures that they won't be able to make these stupid emblems anymore. It's offensive and immature and if people want to be stupid they don't deserve to make emblems anymore. i don't think they are trying to protect children from seeing these emblems obviously because it's a Mature rated game, they are just trying to protect the thousands of people that are offended by these stupid emblems. Simple as that!
