Mills Gaming Centre FIFA BAN
What happened to cause FIFA to be banned in the gaming stations in Mills? Like seriously, why ban a whole game. The people there said it was because the players were swearing and "getting violent"

People do get violent over grown men chasing a ball. Sounds like a good reason to ban it, it is a public area after all.

Ok then why not just ban the people? I have seen so many people rage over other games like COD or Halo but they still have them there.

I've never seen angry CoD or Halo fans beat the crap out of each other on the streets.

Why don't you just ask the supervisor what the game is not there anymore?

In my experience the guys who play fifa in lyons are rowdy, loud, and severely disturb the ability of other people who are trying to play games in the other sections of the gaming area.

You mention COD, but COD isnt a couch-multiplayer game with multiple players sitting together. One person swearing under their breath while playing COD isn't as irritating as 3-4 guys literally yelling and swearing just a few feet away from you (not to mention it probably leaks out into the study area of Lyons).

enforcing a ban on specific people is probably more annoying/difficult to do than just not offering the game at all, especially if this kind of behaviour happens every. single. time people go to play it.
