  1. Gamertag Forcefully Changed.


    My gamertag was forcefully changed after a heated discussion with another player named "About 9 Miatas". The situation was a Halo 5 game of SWAT that i lost fair and square. A couple minutes after the game ended i received a racist harassing message saying
    "camping like a jew." This caused me naturally to retaliate by commenting on his anger. Further into the argument he continues to persist with more racism quoting ann frank and other unnecessary comments which led me to reply with a witty response. As a result
    i assume he felt defeated and told me he was going to report me for sexual harassment. the point is here... I Don't understand why I have to suffer the consequences of bad conduct when i never began the discussion, NOR DID I BEGIN IT WITH RACIST COMMENTS.
    My previous gamertag was YurMomsPants. this offended no one. It is in no way sexual, nor hostile. Justice was clearly not served as a result of lazy xbox staff just not bothering to review the problem and proceeding to prosecute me. I expect more professional
    and legitimate responses from xbox "enforcement" team, or ill be sure to bring this up as high up the chain as possible. i will not pay AGAIN for the ignorance of an angry player who WON the match.

    :)

  2. Gamertag forcefully changed

    Several days ago my gamertag, [Mod Removed], that I've used for the past decade, got changed by Microsoft. I submitted a review because I was appalled at how it could break their guidelines and the decision was upheld. Growing up in a small
    backwoods town in the deep South surrounded by both African Americans and stout old fashioned conservatives, I've never actually heard the term '[Mod Removed]' used as a slur and had to Google it. Nonetheless, it's a thing so I lose my name.
    Fair enough.

    But I'm quite upset by the randomly generated replacement name for the offensive one that took a decade to actually offend anyone enough to report it. Being large, soft-spoken, and having pet rabbits, I was bullied mercilessly in school and my new gamertag,
    bigbunnyxxxxxx, is very reminiscent of things I was called. When I first saw it I actually thought one of my tormentors hacked my account and changed it to mock me. Since then players on live have made fun of it too.

    I don't blame anyone for this, it's a random generator and cruel irony the name I thought was inoffensive got replaced by one that's actually personally offensive to me, I just resent the fact that I have to pay to have it changed to something that doesn't
    remind me of my childhood torment Everytime I log on.

    This is mostly just me venting but if any Microsoft reps see this and there's any way to waive the fee so I can change my name I would greatly appreciate the kindness.

    Gamertag Forcefully Changed.

    Forced gamertag changes are not given because of what happens in the game. Gamertag changes are given because the gamertag violates the code of conduct. The enforcement team does not issue changes without investigating your account first. You can submit
    a case review at http://enforcement.xbox.com but otherwise you will either need to keep this gamertag or pay to change it to something else.

    Gamertag forcefully changed.

    sorry too many people abused the free change (they would change it to something just as bad or just add numbers to the bad tag etc). So now when you get a forced change you have 2 options A: keep the tag they gave you and move on or B: buy a new tag but
    make sure it is rated E for everyone or it will get changed again. and NOTE too many forced name changes results in perm ban off of Live so choose wisely.

    try this on psn and your account is banned for lifetime because the Service does not allow changing names.

    gamertag was forcefully changed

    It does not matter how long you had your name

    If a name is inappropriate then it's inappropriate

    People do come up with lots of ways to get past the word filter

    Also it only takes one valid report for the pet team to make a decision

    Your name must be rated E for everyone

    Good luck with your next choice in gaming

    The naming rules is the same in all servers

    Gamertag forcefully changed

    Gamertags can get a forced change if they are reported by enough people to be "offensive".

    The initial word filter at account creation can only block so much, but the Code of Conduct is set in place to take care of gamertags containing further ambiguity.

    There's absolutely no guarantees, but explaining your situation to a customer rep can
    possibly grant you a waiver (though you'd be the first, as far as I know). Best way to reach them is through phone; the US number is 1-800-4MY-XBOX.
