Ban Keyword from Gamertag Search

I do think it is an excellent idea, and I hope you submit your suggestion as recommended in an earlier response.

It could never be 100% reliable as people come up with creative uses of numbers and letters that can allude to a word without actually typing the word. But, it would be better than nothing.

There is no way to contact enforcement other than via the case review process. There is currently no way to suggest words be filtered out of the GT creation tool.

Hi Geth,

if you do as search, and the gamertag is taken, you get suggestions immediately below:

https://account.xbox.com/en-AU/changegamertag

My banned gamertag also works the same way, and the search engine provides suggestions. If the search engine makes suggestions like this, users might assume it is ok to use this banned keyword. I want to prevent others making the same mistake as I, and be
forced to pay for a new gamertag later down the track.

For certain sensitive words, the search engine is clever enough to not make any suggestions at all.

Can we prevent my former gamertag from being allowed at all in the new gamertag creation?

I'm also interested if you have anything to say in relation to my second question?

Is there a way I can speak to someone in the enforcement department about this?

Thanks

thanks for the link {Parity}.

I'm assuming based on your response, you don't have the answers to my questions?
