  1. Gamertag BS


    I was just assigned a random gamertag, couldn't get any worse, CinnamonDay8145.

    When I try to switch it to , it says taken, I'm the only one who makes that. When I run a search for the gamertag I get no results, and support won't give me the email it's linked to so I can try to log into it. They just said
    I'd have to wait for the tag to expire....

    I went to a random profile and edited the address bar to point to ...xbox.gamertag/?= (w/e), but it linked straight to the CinnamonDay8145 profile? I searched using other websites and they couldn't find the tag history anywhere
    either.

    I feel like this is just an error and I should be able to get the name, but computers and tech support............... I use this name on everything, I must have it, OCD. I will take everything back to the store over this.

    Thanks for reading, any tips? How can I log in to this ghost tag? How long do they take to expire?

    Gamertag BS

    because when you login you goto your profile

    Fyi it's is a violation of the LAW to give out private.info about an account you don't own

    Carries a hefty fine

    And no It snot their job to find the gamertag for here

    Here is how the gamertag system works

    If you can't find it but it says it's taken then it's taken and you didn't spell it right

    gamertag is the same as GamerTag or Gamer Tag or gamertag to the system

    However when searching for a name you have to have the exact spelling so searching for deviantdeviantx doesn't show anything then you spelled it wrong

    But the system will not tell you what spelling it is

  5. It's my name on everything online, I created it, I see it all day every day, pretty sure I'm spelling it right. I don't care about how the gamertag system works or where you go when you login..... I just want to be able to log in
    with the name . I know all of my accounts, emails, and passwords, I'm not forgetting anything, but none of them log into the account with the gamertag.

    Even if there's the slight chance that someone else used my unique name, then why can't I find any achievements/history or anything for it?

    I believe something glitched during my account creation process earlier today that caused my gamertag '' to get messed up or lost in limbo.

    I get that they can't give out account info, but I need something! When was it created? Oh 9 a.m this morning? Yeah that was me attempting to join Xbox society and something f*d up the creation process so reset all that and gimme my tag.

    If it was created a while ago, and someone is using it, FINE! They got my name before I did, I get how it works! Keep it. But if it says created this morning and my gamertag is tied up in an account that doesn't exist for some reason
    then someone needs to do something.

  7. Finally figured out the problem.. On my own.. 'Deviant' is a blocked word.......... Wow. This issue has been going on for 2 days and no one at support could tell me that.

    Deviant - departing from usual or accepted standards. Synonyms, aberrant, abnormal, atypical, anomalous, irregular, nonstandard.

    Root word;

    Deviate - depart from an established course.
    Synonyms, diverge, digress, drift, stray, veer, swerve.

    Could have saved me a whole fckton of aggravation if the website had just said "Hey we don't allow that word, sorry." instead of saying the gamertag was taken. So thanks for that microsoft. Nailed it.

    Gamertag BS

    Hey Defiant! I see you got your gamer tag dialed in. However, you may not like this next part. If in fact that the word "Deviant" is not allowed then you may run into an issue if someone reports your gamer tag. I underlined the part of concern.

    I just want to pass along the info. I know you've worked on getting this squared away but you could lose the name and be forced to choose another. I don't have an issue with it. I just wanted to pass along my concerns to you.

    Take care!
