Long ago, there was an Xbox Live Support Forum for suspended accounts, and incredibly, employees would reply and explain the bans. It was so good, I would read it every day — mostly for the schadenfreude of idiot kids playing dumb and getting called out.
Well I just found a long-lost folder of screenshots I took from this forum, so here are a handful of example posts.

[Content warning: racism, bad language, homophobia, you name it. People are bad.]
"I am very attached to the name 'Scrotal Recall'. An explanation is in order"
"My gamer tag was ObamaDeathPanel"
"His first name was Bigfart7. He was forced to change it so he changed it to Bigfart8. Then a few weeks ago he was forced to change it again, and it is now Bigfart77. Can someone explain why this is a violation"
"Would be helpful is someone could enlighten me as to why my son has been suspended until 31/12/9999"
"honestly what has the world come to…"
"It says because of my bio, but in my bio I never posted anything that violated Xbox Live terms of use…"
"You put 'Hugh G. Aynis' in your name, which is clearly offense and against the Terms of Use."
(It's 2018 and people still don't get this.)
"Do not misconstrude my las post to you as a threat. Fix the act, point period!!!" (This one was during one of the modchip bans.)
"Please take a look at the second gamertag in question."
"But it can also mean a 'Tart' did not pass inspection to go to the store's shelves, therefore has to be 'retarted'"
"I was banned for no reason!!!!!!!"
