War has changed....It's no longer about nations, ideologies, or ethnicity. It's an endless series of proxy battles fought by merceneries and machines. War, and its consumption of life has become a well oiled machine. War has changed. ID tagged soldiers carry ID tagged weapons...use ID tagged gear. Nanomachines inside their bodies enhance and regulate their abilities. Genetic control, information control, emotion control, battlefield control. Everything is monitered and kept under control. War has changed. The age of deterrence has become the age of control, all in the name of averting catastrophe from weapons of mass destruction. And he who controls the battlefield controls history. War...has changed. When the battlefield is under total control, war becomes routine.

AHHHHHHH what could be the phrase that isn't allowed? I see nothing bad about it.

If anyone is wondering, it's the speech in the beginning of MGS4

You put a quote from MGS4, one of the most important Sony exclusives in existance, in your XBL bio? No wonder it didn't work. Someone working for MS probably took a look at it.

well Im not into the whole console war thing. I like both systems for what they are. I wonder if I put quotes around it if it would help.

edit: Nope. Didn't work. however, I did manage to narrow it down. It's something in this:

War has changed. The age of deterrence has become the age of control, all in the name of averting catastrophe from weapons of mass destruction. And he who controls the battlefield controls history. War...has changed. When the battlefield is under total control, war becomes routine.

Probably "weapons of mass destruction".

Me too. It buggers belief.

Switch to something freer for your online fix? You're paying way more than bandwidth costs. It takes the mindset of a subscriber to FYAD to pay so much for so little. Once you get all settled in with your flair.

There's nothing wrong with it, it's just too long. Although I find it funny that they ban ♥ but allow ♪,　★ and ☆. Just so you're aware there's a number of spelling errors in the paragraph as well.

Character Count: 777
Word Count: 121

(max length is 499 characters. Formatting is not preserved.)

It always picked up weird stuff for me too. I usually just shortened it and it would go through.

A while back, Microsoft banned a guy for using his real name "Richard Gaywood" as his gamertag. They apparently found it offensive...
