  1. forced gamertag change?


    I was playing battlefield 4 with my friend in a party. as we were playing a gamertage by the name of "incomplete" (is that an xbox admin?) sent me a message saying enjoy the ban. I then asked what? and then asked what the problem was? no response. after
    about 10 minutes I was randomly signed off and given a very horrible gamertag I do not want. now I must pay for a new gamer tag. I find this highly unacceptable and if there was a problem with my gamertag why was I not told so and allowed a free pass to change
    it to something more appropriate. I would very much like this solved

    :)

    My Gamertag got changed and won't change back

    You'll want to check http://enforcement.xbox.com to see if you were given a forced gamertag change. Gamertags don't change on their own unless you were given a forced change.

    forced gamertag change?

    You were forced to change your gamertag because your gamertag must have violated the code of conduct, you were told so and made aware by the forced gamertag change. As far as the person sending you the message, I think it was just a coincidence that he sent
    that. Was he playing BF4 with you?

    That doesn't sound like something an Xbox administrator would do. "Enjoy the ban" seems more like something a person reporting you would say. If you had an inappropriate Gamertag and he reported it, it is likely that it was changed by Xbox Staff for not
    following the Code of Conduct. Just follow the rules and read the code of conduct when choosing a name. Not much else can be said.

  6. fecal flapjack. look I understand it says poop and it childish. I was going for funny. I did look at the code of conduct and I do not see one that would apply. offensive? but even then that's a reach because I promise you I have seen way worse while playing
    xbox.

    If your account has received an FNC by the enforcement team you will need to contact them in the following forum for any further answers.

    Apologies for the frustration but the users above including myself are not employees of MS or Xbox. The link I provided in my previous post is where you can post about your enforcement action. They are the only ones who can provide an official answer.

    Your opinion about whether or not the Code of Conduct applies isn't really relevant, the opinion of the PET matters. They think it violates the code, so it does.

    I'd have to agree with the XBLPET, scatological terms are not appropriate for a G-rated environment.

    GAMERTAG CHANGE

    The Xbox Policy Enforcement Team only issues forced Gamertag changes to Gamertags that violate the ToU and Code of Conduct. When a Forced Gamertag Change is issued, your Gamertag is converted to a randomly generated tag. I'd recommend just gathering up
    the $9.99 and paying for a change, since your Gamertag does not seem to be in violation of the rules, and I do not foresee a Forced Gamertag Change being issued for it.

    Gamer tag

    I received a forced Gamertag change. Can XBLPET let me choose a new Gamertag for free?
    Some rumors give the impression that XBLPET will provide a free Gamertag change to accounts that have received a forced Gamertag change. This is not the case.

    In the past, a forced Gamertag change gave users the opportunity to change the offending Gamertag free of charge. Unfortunately, this gesture was prone to abuse, and many people simply chose new, equally offensive Gamertags. As a result,
    the Gamertag enforcement process changed. A forced Gamertag change now automatically assigns a new Gamertag to the account, much in the same way a system-generated Gamertag is provided when you first sign up for Xbox Live.

    If a player is unhappy with the assigned Gamertag and wishes to change it, he or she may purchase a new Gamertag through the

    standard Gamertag change process

    Gamer Tag change asap (refered via live chat)

    Hi, forced gamertag changes are only imposed under certain circumstances. Having your personal info, name etc isn't recommended but also isn't against the terms of use or code of conduct.

    The link above explains about forced gamertag changes and what circumstances they are imposed. Other than that you're looking at paying for the change I suspect. The link below explains the gamertag change process in detail.

    Gamertag help

    If you were forced to change the gamertag, it would have been forced by the Product Enforcement Team. If the gamertag was reported as being offencive, and the PET decided that it was, then the gamertag is forced to change. Chances of getting the old gamertag
    back is slim to none, as once a gamertag is used, it remains unavailable for something like 5 or 7 years. Plus, there is a good chance that, even if you were able to change it back, that the PET would simply force you to change it again. And beyond that, the
    more you are forced to change your gamertag for ToU violations, the more chance you have of getting suspended. I would just chalk the old gamertag up as gone, and go from there.

    Hope this helps!

    Possibly a forced gamertag change?

    Forced Gamertag Changes

    When a forced Gamertag change is imposed, the system automatically assigns a new Gamertag to the affected account, much in the same way a system-generated Gamertag is provided when you first sign up for Xbox Live.

    If a player is unhappy with the assigned Gamertag and wishes to change it, he or she may purchase a new Gamertag through the standard Gamertag change process. However, the Gamertag that received the forced change will remain unobtainable.

    A forced Gamertag change may be issued if a Gamertag visually resembles, sound likes, represents, hints at, abbreviates, or otherwise insinuates any of the following:

    • Profane words or phrases
    • Topics or content of a sexual nature
    • Hate speech
    • Controversial religious topics
    • Notorious people or organizations
    • Sensitive current or historical events
