Microsoft is looking into changing the Xbox reputation system

Xbox’s Mike Ybarra has taken to Twitter to confirm that the company is reassessing the reputation system on the Xbox platform.

The system — in theory — ranks players based on their online actions and will limit those who drop out of games, abuse others and the like. In practice, it doesn’t really seem to be working on Xbox One at the moment.

We're looking at reputation and have changes in the works. More on this soon.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
