A Most Painful Experience

Yes, Randver. According to the WOMAN I asked. Just start at that "Great Calf" and work your way up to 56, 33, 29.

I've no Idea as to what that would look like. Perhaps if someone made a clay model and posted a link to the image. Perhaps Photoshop even?

Point is. After the person I asked pointed it out, I felt as small as a freshly hatched Ant who just ventured out into a Brontosaurus stampede.

If "GreatCalf" was autogenerated. Then the numbers that follow, whether Coke Bottle shape or no. Can only describe a very, very, very limited number of possibilities.

 

The only meaning i get from that is about a persons lower leg, man or woman.

There is no alternative meaning that i can find.

 

So any digit number is in reference to a woman's proportions?

"GreatCalf" could just as easily be a "great" baby cow.

Your female friend read way to much into that......way to much.

 

I can quite easily see how your previous gamertag was offensive. Not sure what "your generation" is, but I have zero sympathy, if one of my kids used that phrase they would get a telling off, but hey, that's just "my generation" I suppose

 

I just posted the ONLY possibility that makes even the remotest sense. The 3 sets of numbers which follows "GreatCalf" was just icing on the cake.

Now one could argue. "Well, those numbers weren't 3 sets of numbers. But rather, 9 individual numbers."

However, I am confident that no Jury on Earth would buy such an argument!

 

What makes the most amount of sense is it was a randomly generated GT that is composed of two random words that can be found in any US dictionary and 6 random numbers.

The day any 6 digit number is automatically in reference to a woman's measurements ( no matter how unrealistic those measurements are) we are in big trouble.

 

All Gold members agree to the terms of conduct that MS has implemented. By agreeing to these terms you are giving MS the ability to monitor and patrol... keeping Xbox gaming an open environment for all ages of gamers. OP tested the limits and lost. Should
be lessoned learned, nothing to do with 10 years of service and all that jazz. The OP should of known better.

 

My first gt was arfer lobon but it got banned 6 months in lol I tried it on got caught paid for another man up you tried you failed live with it

 

GreatCalf563329 is a quality gamer tag

 

While you make an interesting argument, GreatCalf, I would've reported your gamertag myself had I seen it. It's derogatory when used towards others and is associated with both a drug and a male sexual organ. Even if that wasn't your intent, that's EASILY
how many others may have seen it. No offense, but please take a bit more time into considering what your GT should be if you ever decide to change it again, and take into account not just how you perceive it, but how others may perceive it as well. Remember,
the eye is always in the beholder and perception is EVERYTHING. Just as a reminder, the Xbox Live Code of Conduct states:

Do not create a Gamertag, profile content, Avatar content, in-game content, videos, or any other content that other users may be offended by. This includes, without limitation, anything related to or suggestive of:

• Profane words or phrases
• Topics or content of a sexual nature
• Hate speech
• Illegal drugs or controlled substance
• Illegal activities
• Controversial religious topics
• Notorious people or organizationsSensitive current or historical events
  

Any “sound-alike” or “lookalike” words, phrases, or puns that reference these topics

According to the CoC, I would say you've violated at least FOUR of them - profane words or phrases, topics of a sexual nature, illegal drugs or controlled substances, illegal activities, and the "sound-alike" or "lookalike" words, phrases, or puns that reference
those particular topics.

As far as your experience with support, I'm sorry it didn't go well, but I've had numerous wonderful experiences with support and know enough that while not every one of them is as helpful as they should be, you shouldn't condemn an entire organization for
the action(s) of just 1 person. It's illogical!

I also think it's a bit ridiculous (again, no offense, just my opinion) that you'd get rid of an entire console with numerous great features and games over a name change, a bad support experience, and $10... After all, if you could afford the console, $10
shouldn't be something to be so upset about; it'd simply be a drop in the bucket; after all, it's not like you were fined hundreds of dollars for speeding. But, I digress - I can't tell you what to do; I can only make suggestions. It's up to you to make the
decisions.

 

We could have this conversation until we're blue in the face. I've been at these forums for a long time and these types of threads pop up often throughout the generations of people coming and going for the last 10 years. I think the takeaway here is no
matter how hard you try or what side you stand on, in most cases, no one will have said "Oh I see your point, you're right" and everyone has wasted their time explaining it to each other.
