Current Phase of Xbox Live Part Duece

The ODB: You might be saying whats with the picture? This is the original ODB and if you don't know who he is look him up. The ODB of Xbox live is the guy who just plays the game to win and have fun. He isn't talking shit usually and is the quietest one of the bunch. When the game is on the line he might give out some pointers, but he usually won't get involved with the bickering and bitching between rival classes during matches. He is the most cordial of the categories.

Favorite Dis: usually doesn't dis.

Rating: 1 {you want to play with this guy}



The Clanster: Can be the worst or best part of Xbox Live?! Depending on the general grouping on the Clanster they could be a group of racists/gangsters sprinkled with your prepubescents to get a mixture of a bunch of annoying shits. Sometimes you can get a bunch of ODBs, college students, or adolescents who know the game and just have fun pwning as a team.

Favorite Dis: usually will expound on whatever the leader says
ex: The leader says somebody sucks the followers will reply with some variant of sucking on some other type of level. If further explanation is needed, go to the zoo and watch the monkeys. If one chucks shit soon others will follow.

Rating: 5 {don't mind them until they start on tyrants about stupid topics}




THE JOKESTERS: Can be very entertaining when they are actually funny. Most of the time they will usually fall under as sub category of class already listed. They tend to make more jokes about the game or players than actually play the game. High possibility of actually sucking at the game on a consistent level since their head isn't in the game.

Favorite dis: to many to list

Rating: 5 on average {They don't bother me unless they go on tangents. While I like to play to win, sometimes a jokester can improve the overall game.}


The Female: oooOOOOHHH......aaaaAAAAHHHH Hardly ever see them like the Loch Ness monster every one has claimed to see one, but there is never any factual basis on the claim. In all seriousness just kidding females if your reading, I see/hear them occassionally but usually "The prepubescent or The Adolescent" will scare them off.

Favorite Dis: Leave me alone!

Rating: unknown {well never really played with one!?!?!?![no on xbox live jackass]}

In conclusion we can see that Xbox Live provides a gambit of different individuals. Some of you may be saying where do I fit in all of this? If you are saying that to yourself, then you are probably lying to yourself. While this is mostly supposed to be humorous, it shouldn't take away from the fact that some of the points made above are valid. If you are a developer for Xbox Live, please for the consumers sake make it an easy option for the individual to mute people who ruin the experience for others. If you need an example please copy Halo 3's options cause they are flawless.

You are probably also asking yourself. "Okay Mr. High and Mighty which one are you?" I have been in most of the classes besides your prepubescent and adolescent. While I don't believe I have acted as a gangster, I am sure I have made fun of that category plenty of times.

Disclaimer: just my opinion....I don't condone any category listed....I am just telling it through my eyes.

Disclaimer of the disclaimer: I have friends in all the classes so yea I play with every one besides prepubescent.
