Reporting Other Players

From inappropriate user-generated content (UGC) to ramming in multiplayer, when a Code of Conduct violation happens, we want you to be prepared and well informed when it comes to the player reporting process so that your report gets to the right place for review.

Common violations that result in enforcement action in Forza titles include:

  • Inappropriate liveries, layer groups, and photos.
  • UGC covers liveries, layer groups, blueprint titles, photos, and anything else that can be player edited or created in any Forza title. All Forza titles are rated E for Everyone, and as such, all UGC must adhere to that rating.
  • Intentional wrecking and unsportsmanlike conduct in multiplayer.

You can read the Forza Enforcement Guidelines for more information.

How to Make an In-Game Report

  • *Please do NOT submit a ticket for offensive items in the Auction House. 
  • To report an inappropriate or offensive item in the Auction House: Select Auction Options > Report Auction > OK. 

Vinyl Groups & Liveries

  • *Please do NOT submit a ticket for UGC if the inappropriate content is on the player’s creative hub.
  • To report an inappropriate or offensive vinyl group or livery: Select Creator Info > Report > Report Offensive Content > OK.  
  • *If the item in question is NOT in the creative hub, you may submit a ticket.
  • *Please include the player’s Gamertag and screenshots for evidence.

Photos

  • *Please do NOT submit a ticket for Photos if the inappropriate content is visible in-game. 
  • To report an inappropriate photo: Navigate to the photo you wish to report: Select Creator Info > Report > Report Offensive Content > OK. 
  • *If the item in question is NOT in the creative hub, you may submit a ticket.
  • *Please include the player’s Gamertag and screenshots for evidence.

Blueprints

  • *Please do NOT submit a ticket for blueprints.

Cheating

  • To report a player you suspect of cheating, please submit a ticket, and the Forza Support & Safety team will investigate.
  • *Please include the player’s Gamertag and any screenshots/links/videos for evidence.
    • To take a screenshot or video capture:
      • Xbox: Press the Xbox button on your controller > Y for Screenshot or X for Video Capture.
      • PC: Screenshot ALT F1 with Nvidia / record ALT + Z or shortcut you have.

Unsportsmanlike Conduct

Unsportsmanlike conduct pertains mainly to intentional race disruption, such as wrecking, ramming, spearing, shoving, pitting, wall riding, brake checking, blocking, and track cutting/extending to pass another racer to gain position. In other words, going out of your way to intentionally ruin a race goes against the spirit of the game and can result in enforcement action.

  • To report a player for repeated unsportsmanlike conduct, please submit a ticket, and the Forza Support & Safety team will investigate. 
  • A clip or shared replay file of the incident MUST be included. Shared replay files provide the most accurate reports.
    • Shared Clip: You must upload a clip or provide a link to a clip for us to investigate. All clips MUST have Gamertags. To take a screenshot or video capture.
        • Xbox: Press the Xbox button on your controller > Y for Screenshot or X for Video Capture.
        • PC: Screenshot ALT F1 with Nvidia / record ALT + Z or whatever shortcut you set up.
    • Shared Replay: You must share a saved replay file for us to investigate.
      • At the end of the race in the Post-Race menu, select SAVE REPLAY.
      • Give your replay file a unique name with up to 16 characters that helps describe the incident (Ramming Lap5) for example.
      • In the text description field, include additional details such as lap # or race time when the incident occurred.
      • Include your gamertag and replay file name in your submitted ticket.

 

      •  
  • Any reports that do not include a clip or replay of the infraction will not be processed. 

Submitting a ‘Report a Player’ ticket

  • Select the Report a Player form from the drop-down menu and fill out the appropriate information.
