    Gamer-Tag - apparently my last name is offensive?


    All I want is for my gamertag to go back to what it's been for years, and not have someone who works for support tell me its outside of their scope. This shouldn't be difficult, is not offensive at all, or is it just because its an Arab name and what ever algorithm is used programmed poorly. Either way, This should be an easy resolution, so why is it not allowed, and why can't it be fixed and changed back.

    :)

    Gamer-Tag - apparently my last name is offensive?

    Hello, ShettaLOL. Thanks for reaching out! My name is Lucas. I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user just like you. I'll be happy to assist you today.

    I'm sorry about this situation. The gamertag system is an automated system and there is no manual reviews for gamertags. If the system is not allowing you use the desired gamertag, there is no way around this. I'm sorry and I hope you understand.

    Feel free to ask back any questions.

    Nothing happening upon changing Gamertag

    A lot of times it could be that the name that you chose my be offensive or might be on a list of offensive words. Have you checked to see if someone else has that gamer tag?

    Gamer tag

    Your gamer tag was deemed inappropriate or offensive and they changed it because it violated the code of conduct.

    You can argue to your blue in the face but you wont get the gamer tag name back.

    If you are wondering why you didn't get a free name change you can blame the people that abused the system by just changing the gamertag to another offensive or inappropriate gamer tag.

    So I suggest you let it go and either use the gamer tag you were given or buy some points and change it to an appropriate gamer tag that will not violate the code of conduct.

    Forced Gamertag, Why?

    Hello Austin,

    If a gamer tag is found offensive by someone and they report it, the Enforcement team will review the name and decide. In this case as mentioned above there are many people that could find that gamer tag offensive. Always be mindful of the

    code of conduct
    when creating gamer tags. Something you may find ok, someone else might find offensive.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    Brad
