Ever imagine being a vigilante? You throw on a cape, some tights, and run out the door to serve the people! Sound exciting? Oh well, that isn’t going to happen. You can do the second closest thing though, you can take action and help to improve the future of Xbox Live.
Microsoft has just announced a new beta which will be known as “Xbox Enforcement United” (I know, it sounds epic). The new project calls upon Xbox Live members to become involved within the community and help create a “fun, fair, and safer place for everyone”.
Within the campus at Redmond an Xbox team known as the Xbox Live Policy and Enforcement Team exists. Remember that time your friend got banned from Xbox Live or his profile got cleared out because he used foul language? This team is responsible for those decisions.
The group of “agents”, as they are called, monitor and process thousands of complaints received every single day; they then judge the complaints against the Xbox Live Code of Conduct and make a decision. These agents are Microsoft’s Xbox Live judges, jury members, and executioners for Xbox Live baddies.
Now, you have a chance to join the Enforcement United team and help provide your opinion whether various content is harmless or offensive. Your data will be feed into an algorithm to improve keeping the Xbox Live community family friendly.
The new system in place will be able to determine whether an immediate action will be deployed by the automated system or if the complaint should be escalated to members of the Xbox Live Policy and Enforcement Team.
For participating in the community, you will be able to earn rewards and recognition for your contributions.
