Remarks

Important Before calling this method, verify that the user is signed in by checking the IUser.IsSignedIn Property. Calling this method for a user that is not signed in will throw exceptions. Note that the exeption will be thrown on task creation as opposed to task execution.
If the user is banned or parentally controlled, Xbox One will display a system message that notifies the user accordingly.
In the case of a user being banned, Xbox One uses the following base string:
Because of your past behavior, you can't %1.  
You may choose to provide a substring by passing in a value for friendlyDisplay, such as “play XboxTitle multiplayer”. This would display the following string on the user’s console:
Because of your past behavior, you can't play XboxTitle multiplayer.  

In the case of a user being parentally blocked, Xbox One uses the following base string:

You can't %1 because of how your account is set up. Your parent can change this for you in your privacy settings.

Using the previous example, this would display the following string on the user’s console:

You can't play XboxTitle multiplayer because of how your account is set up. Your parent can change this for you in your privacy settings.
