Avid gamer or not, chances are you’ve probably stumbled across this video already. It spread like herpes at a Lindsay Lohan sex party over the weekend. In the clip it appears that an Xbox Live moderator with the Gamertag “The Pro” (real whitty) passes out bans like flu vaccines at a nursing home. Get on his bad side and you can kiss your XBL privileges goodbye for a little while.
Hit the break to check out the video.
I’m pretty sure we can all agree that The Pro doesn’t sound like anyone I’d want to stuck in a match with, but there are a couple of things to take into consideration. First, the audio is choppy and doesn’t always match up correctly. The video’s creator explains why at the beginning of the video so you have to take his word at face value. And second, the video is heavily edited. At no point are you able to hear what iTzLuPo V2 says to the moderator, you only get the moderator’s reaction.
Xbox Live’s Director of Policy and Enforcement Stephen Toulouse posted the following explanation on his Twitter:
So what do you think? Is The Pro a ban happy d-bag or just a misunderstood moderator?
