Treyarch Enforcement in Full Swing

Via CallofDuty.com

Hey Black Ops Community –

Treyarch is committed to providing all gamers with the best online experience possible, and that means maintaining the game’s integrity. We have a zero tolerance policy against exploitation, and this is to protect the many gamers who go online to compete and have legitimate fun. Below is a brief outline of our security and enforcement policy which will remain posted and will get updated here.

The team at Treyarch has worked very hard to create a fun, competitive online environment, and we want to keep this environment clean so that the game can be played as it was intended. Users who abuse the game through modding, boosting, glitching or making offensive emblems degrade the online experience for others, and we will take action to prevent this from happening.

Keep it clean. Play nice. Have fun.

Thanks
– Team Treyarch

CALL OF DUTY: BLACK OPS – SECURITY & ENFORCEMENT POLICY

In short, keep you emblem clean and play fair. It’s that simple. No matter how much you argue that you should be able to  have that Hitler looking figure with a swastika on his forehead for an emblem, you just won’t win. I’m sure you can think up a more appropriate emblem that you like even more.

As for you boosters and glitchers, get a life. You need to cheat at a freakin video game? You are a sad group of people that I almost feel sorry for.
