    Not sure what you mean by recycle date?

    But this is how the system is now setup.

    In order for a gamertag to be put back into circulation the microsoft account can NOT be signed into anything to do with microsoft for 5 years this includes.

    Windows devices, Xbox devices, Windows phones.

    Once it has hit that five years then the gamer tag will be recycled and be put back into circulation.

    Like Smwutches said there is no way to reserve a gamertag.

    You can't get a claimed gtag even when it's not in use

    When a gtag recycle would be available like 2 years ago it will be announced so stay tuned

    I'm sorry, but MegaMasterX and MegaMaster X are two different tags, and I get a different message when trying to change my tag to "MegaMaster X".

    I called Xbox Support back and am hoping to get some results soon. It's not like I'm trying to take a Gamertag from someone who is actively using it at all.

    If it was indeed taken by someone else, wouldn't it show up in search results for Xbox Support's internal tools or on Xbox Live?

    It doesn't state that it's unavailable, just that its reserved. I was informed to ask for Enforcement's aid in this by Xbox Support directly.

    Gamertag Reservation

    There is no way to reserve gamertags, as no such specific system exists. All gamertags are on a first-come, first-serve basis. If it has already been taken, you will have to choose another name.

    The only way to "reserve" a gamertag is to create a new Microsoft account with that gamertag (if you plan on starting fresh), or pay the fee to change your gamertag on your existing Microsoft account.

    Gamertags are released if a user does not log on to their Microsoft account for five straight years, as that is how Microsoft purges inactive accounts from their systems. Some people may not have an Xbox profile, but they still keep their Microsoft account
    active through other Microsoft services (email, Office, etc). There is no way to check the remaining time (before termination) of any given account.
