What is an Xbox MVP?

[@TheRealNinJaSistah]

Thanks for sharing Scratch. There are so many ways that both programs overlap and explaining the differences between them is hugely helpful!

[@akaScratch]

+NinJa Sistah for sure and I think it’s an important distinction to make since unfortunately people abusing the XA program rewards is becoming a thing now despite our previous concerns. I’m gonna change that as much as I can and the support you all show is awesome. Thanks!!

[@kqexzz]

@@akaScratch I can’t be a ambassador as I am 15 and I also have been banned a bit back

[@PalmettoBling]

I think they've done a great job of finding a truly diverse group of people to help guide them, and I can only imagine how much work it is organizing y'all.

[@akaScratch]

we're a handful I'm sure lol aaaand its growing

[@aceattorney]

Very well thought explanation of the Xbox MVP Program. Being an MVP is a real honor and something I will be forever grateful for.

[@bowski477]

LOVE THIS VIDEO! Really great explanation scratch.

[@akaScratch]

+bowski477 MVP video yaaaaay cc: @bleednornge72 😂

[@DjDATZ]

Thank you Scratch! Very informative video, and as always, great production quality! I love how you listed out the differences in a visual way! I'll definitely be using this video when someone is wondering what the difference is between an Xbox MVP and an Xbox Ambassador! Also, I dinged the bell. 😉

[@akaScratch]

+DjDATZ yes the bell! Lol. Thanks dude!

[@XBLAFans]

Definitely, love how different the path each person has to the MVP award and that doesn't try to force everyone into the same box. It's often hard to see what everyone does behind the scenes. --Cain

[@akaScratch]

+XBLA Fans agree. At least this gives me something to point people to and also something to maybe inspire them to go above an award and make a change.

[@Demlar989]

I was invited to become an xbox ambassador =)

[@BlaineCook72]

Great job, learned a lot as usual.

[@akaScratch]

+Bleednornge72 lol. Appreciate your support as usual. Means a ton.

[@Darkist1]

This is something i'd really love to have. Been working hard as an ambassador to get in there, working hard with the Xbox Playdates ZA team as a Host, want to try doing some sort of stream consultancy too to help out new streamers join platforms like mixer.

[@Cuban]

lol crazy man I have a 13 year tenure I been on xbox for so long.. Im never getting a single badge lmao Ive been kicked out of ambassadors and definitely won't be MVP Ive gotten over 25 suspensions within the same year. they should release badges that have to do more with skill rather than obedience. just my opinion..

[@zendornoD1glazer]

I gave up on being an Xbox ambassador because i get banned for LITERALLY NO REASON every few months

[@ramiijo]

I’m still confused because if I wanna do it for me when it says your info I put mine in and the Nominee I put mine again because I want to become a Xbox mvp

[@akaScratch]

If you were going to nominate yourself that’s what you would do. It’s more of a doing something else and someone notices and they nominate you but I suppose you could nominate yourself if you’re doing great things.

[@soqsoup]

narcissistic much?

[@NorthernZoot]

Awesome and informative video as always Scratch! Well done!

[@akaScratch]

+NorthernZoot thanks Zooooot!

[@TheSteinekin]

This is a great explanation and thank you for making this!! 💚

[@reekness]

Thanks for the help man!

[@mivathediva]

So to rejoin the Xbox Ambassador program again, I can't get a enforcement in the last year, or if I got one, I can wait another year to get back into it?

[@akaScratch]

Miva • yeah if it was in the last year.

[@LetsPlayArcanium]

Who would ever report you? 0.0

[@jojo-kd5rg]

They should add more badges tbh

[@PalmettoBling]

Very much agree with that!

[@akaScratch]

Xbox Insiders has been one of the most requested ones that I can see anyway, through messaging and comments and the like.

[@shareenorwood8812]

New xbox ambassador Here

[@Mafioso_PR]

can you help us out? when filling out the form, can you give me pointers on what to write when ask why him/her deserve to get it

[@OmariFaith]

Just explain why you believe that person should be nominated. Such as this person is constantly spreading positivity in chats or they've been extremely active in the forums. If you can't openly write why you feel they should be nominated then they probably shouldn't be. It's kinda one of those "you would know" things

[@FourNinjaToads]

I saw me!!!!!!! Lol.

[@akaScratch]

+Four Ninja Toads crap I was going to edit you out and forgot 🤣🤣🤣 JK 💚

[@aceattorney]

Gotta catch em all! ;p

[@ichangedmyname4276]

Oh god the windows sound came through my TV and I had a mini melt down

[@HARLEYNOT_BANANA]

Can I still join mvp??

[@EvoX180]

I have been an ambassador since 2013 unfortunately I got an enforcement action and have been out since like 2015. I messaged the ambassador twitter and they told me they are looking/working on a way for people with past enforcements to join the program again pretty neat ;D

[@akaScratch]

yeah now it's just a year but they need to fix the old school from the previous policy when it was a forever thing. Much better policy now, people make mistakes and it's not reflective of who they are. hopefully it gets sorted soon

[@domceo24]

How do I get that second badge the one with the controller with a half circle with stars

[@IxWIZARDRYxI]

I have been an Xbox Ambassador since 2017, and someone randomly reported me for no reason whatsoever and the Ambassador badge was taken from me and I did not do nothing wrong. Question: Will the Xbox MVP badge appear on your profile right away if you are nominated or do you have to toggle the Xbox MVP badge on like you did with the Xbox Ambassador badge? Sorry, it's just that I do so much for others on Xbox but it goes unnoticed. I help people with their games from beginning to end, I help with Achievements, I recommend games, gift games, bought my neighbor an Xbox One S All-Digital Edition, a ton of games, XBL Gold, etc and I am not an Xbox MVP? I hope someone can answer this for me because I cannot find it anywhere on the Internet nor anyone has a clue. Plus, I have been recommending Xbox products and services since November 15th, 2001 until now (January 2nd, 2020). It is a shame that I am not an Xbox MVP, though.

[@laurj7877]

Same happened to me man

[@EastDallasKicks]

Damn I gotta catch up to your gamerscore

[@S_erialDesignation_N]

Can i ask? Whats the other badge The one with the *15* number

[@akaScratch]

How many years some has been an Xbox Live Gold subscriber

[@xpa7206]

Hi I was just wondering could you please make more videos on how to get more badges,

[@akaScratch]

The videos I have on the channel now are the only possible badges for regular users to obtain. The rest are only available to Microsoft Employees and are only obtainable by working on the product team during the launch of milestones like Xbox One, Kinect, etc.

[@xpa7206]

@@akaScratch Oh ok thanks for the speedy reply, I was confused about the other ones.

[@xpa7206]

@@akaScratch I also have one more question, the white number surrounded by circles on your Xbox profile what does that represent, also if it's years played, then im a bit confused cos mine says 1 but Ive been playing Xbox for 5 years I think now

[@akaScratch]

It’s how many years you’ve been an Xbox Live Gold subscriber consecutively

[@powbbx]

I'm joining the Xbox ambassador program yay

Clicking on "become an ambassador" is doing nothing for me sadly This happening for any other poor blokes like myself?

[@michaelfisher3242]

Chaeyoungie xox same I had my Xbox for about 3 years

[@mrmister8127]

I think you need to be on Xbox live for that many years

[@Ruisu24]

You need to have an xbox live subscription.

[@nationalsocialist5526]

If you get kicked out of the xbox ambassador program, how long do you wait to get back in it ?

[@andrewedwards5313]

You if you got removed via suspensions, then you can not re join the program.

[@circle8563]

Man I want one to go with my other one

[@vexted_7007]

How do I get the number badge?

[@akaScratch]

That’s the number of years you’ve been a Gold Subscriber

[@alejandroordonez1557]

What’s that number on everyone’s profile on the bottom left?? Everyone has it but me. How do I get it?!?

[@reinbowed]

Alejandro Ordonez It is the amount of years since that account was created. For example I created my xbox 3 years ago. So the circle on my profile shows the number 3.

[@alejandroordonez1557]

Egg with 100k subscribers! I used to have mine I guess since I don’t pay for live it took it away 😭

[@lemocado4139]

How do you know if you’ve been nominated

[@akaScratch]

Either when you’re contacted for further interview or sometimes those who nominate you will tell you.

[@lemocado4139]

What do you mean by further interview like what is it

[@akaScratch]

Lemocado they contact you. Tell you that you’ve been nominated and are being considered. Then they just talk about it etc. not everyone who gets nominated gets called but once and if you’re being considered they’ll contact you.

How Do you have the 14 badge?

I’ve had XBOX Live Gold that long

[@RepostYtvideos]

@@akaScratch im suppose to have 3 but i dont have it whyy??

[@akaScratch]

Yukena Slay I’m not a hundred percent sure but it used to be consecutive so if you lapsed more than like a month before renewing it would reset. I’ve been told that changed and now it just doesn’t count whenever your not gold and starts back when you are. I can try to find out.

[@loganovercash]

Thats all great, accept i cant go a year with this new report system without getting an enforsement. I got banned for 2 days and they could not tell me why or what i did. No investigation was done. Xbox is going to shit. Thanks phil spencer, for thinking good games dont make a good gaming industry. And for thinking ai would do a better job than a partial ai and human system to deal with these report problems.

[@hadesfiness631]

The xbox enforcement is a joke

[@akaScratch]

Serious question - Enforcement is evolving. Can you expand on joke? Like what was your experience and what do you think should be done differently or better. Look for real feedback.

[@hadesfiness631]

The fact that you can spam report is ridiculous, honestly just playing red dead online I think I've gotten more reports and feed take down items which means they report game clips lmfaooo it's just so hurting so you get reported for being better then someone in a game and if it happens enough times xbox slaps you with a ban and when it dose happen again cuz theres always going to be a salty report happy low life that will report you to make themselves feel better about living in there mother basement at 33 and you could end up with a permanent ban cuz someone had nothing better to do but to report you for a hour

[@akaScratch]

I see. If you go to enforcement.com and sign in does it say what you were banned for? A lot times what happens is people say “I’m gonna mass report you” but the ban or enforcement is because of things that took place like attacking you for being too good and threatening to ban you and then you do get banned. Not because your too good but because of the response or messages you may have sent in retaliation, even though they started it. I don’t know the story in your case but I do know that mass reporting false reports will get the reporter banned for flooding the system and wasting the Safety Teams time. Best to just block mute and let them be salty and don’t engage them or anything. Let them make false reports and get banned without retaliation and move on. I think the main problem lies in the transparency from the team communications to you about your ban so you know exactly why instead of assuming it was because of mass false reporting.

[@hadesfiness631]

I dont msg ppl and I am usually in a party when I play even tho getting reported for trash talking I so bogus and was at one point the best part about playing games was the trash talk but whatever, and I figured out the " inappropriate feed item take down" it was a game clip from rdr2 story where arthur said something funny, so that means something salty s.o.b with nothing els better to do reported it so to ruin my day loool, and even if you take the time to report someone and write out a comment why and do everything right, spam reports seem to be more effective loool

[@hadesfiness631]

Also I wanna see who reports me, and there has to be some kind of actual human supervision insted of this computer management, like if you report someone too fast it shouldn't even be registered without filling out a full report request, cuz getting reported for a game clip of a cut scene is bullshit, what if I was already under a suspension it wouldve led to a ban and cuz of what? Also I think the permanent ban should not be a thing cuz if I was under suspension and I got hit w that report it probably wouldve ban me and then what, no xbox you cant get a refund you lose all ur games cuz most ppl buy digital and all cuz some goof has nothing better to do honestly one of the only big problems I have w xbox
