I dont play online that much really, only Battlefield 1943 and Bad company normally. I'm a fairly average player and I never intentionally do anything to spoil others enjoyment.

So why have 67% of people I've played chosen to avoid me and only 33% chose not to review or preferred me?!!!

I have no idea how many people I've played online but for 67% of them to avoid me I must be doing something wrong!!!

50% of those criticise unsporting behaviour and 50% for quitting early.

Now Im sure most people have shot a team mate accidently when they run in front of you but I've never done it on purpose. As for quitting early, well my router isnt perfect and sometimes I need the loo!

How does my rep compare with everyone else? is 67% a lot or am I just being over sensitive?!!

PS My gamertag is FormulaFlea if you feel like spreading the love (And no posting negative feedback either!!)

You are often playing with people who are happy to throw personal abuse your way, or will remove you from a server etc, just for overtaking them or shooting them twice in 5 hours.
If the LIVE age limit was 30+, I may be a bit concerned, but as it isn't, I would ignore it.
It's a waste of time having the rep system, due to the sorts of people who use it.Simple as that really.

All that means is that out of the hundreds of people you have played with, 3 have bothered to say something about you, 2 bad and one good.

I didn't even know there was a rep system, how do you check that then?

It says "of the people you have played:

33% preferred you or did ot submit a review about you.

67% Avoided you"

That seems to suggest that it's a fairly large number who chose to ignore me!

Maty, To view your rep, go to My Xbox, select your gamertag, then select profile, then select View rep.

I wouldnt worry about it it does'nt really mean anything.
People report you when you kill them too much etc etc etc.
I know because i've done it in a rage before.
I dread to think what mine is as if someone trys to steal my care package from my own team i'll shoot them a fer few more times in the game to get my point across.
Accidentally i shot a guy as we spawned the other day, complete accident, then i heard an enemy running towards me, my team ran from the other direction and i shot the same guy on my team again, i then shot him again trying to protect him from getting shot by someone else, i also killed the same 1 guy with a stealth bomber, he got me back a couple of times but he must of hated me.
I think i ended up killing about 7 of my own team at the end of it, i dread to think how much negative they gave me lol.

No, it's what I stated, only 3 made any sort of comment. The percentages work out too accurately otherwise.

Doesn't make sense does it? Most people won't submit feedback so the lower percentage should be higher.

That would make more sense given that I dont play online nearly as much as some people!

The wording is confusing though, Id like to know exactly how many people left feedback, not percentages.

Mine is similar, people will just leave you a neg for petty reasons, I wouldn't worry about it.

I noticed a lot of mine came from playing TF2, where I would always host games. Sometimes my console would freeze, ending the game and people gave me bad rep for that, thinking I had quit (which I never did).

Mine is similar. Even from the launch of XBOX 360 it has been about the same. In PGR3 I found it was encouraged to leave feedback, however now you hardly see it.

The wording should be changed to 67% of those who have left feedback. Not who you played.
