Crack the Smack!

As a journalist you do have to do a certain amount of meddling in other people's affairs to actually get a good story. Recently, I've been pretty annoyed at this SmackTalk device from Digital Innovations.

So, I've decided that BXB could run a month long "Crack the Smack" campaign to help try and root out and expose the worse smack talkers on Xbox Live.

Basically, my idea is this, when someone on BXB encounters a bad smack talker they add this person's gamertag to a thread on BXB. They leave them negative feedback and then ask other people on BXB to do the same.

At the end of the month, I e-mail all the gamertags off to Microsoft and complain about them smack talking!

The potential for pun headlines alone means this is something worth running! Here's a few initial ideas:

Smack Users Xbox Live Crackdown

Smacktalk gets Smacked down

Yanks Use Smack the most on Xbox Live

Keep your eyes on BXB for future developments and remember: Don't tolerate Smack Abuse in your Community!

I'm totally serial.
