    That's great advice Nano.

    I hope you don't mind me asking though but why do you capitalise each word? It makes your posts quite unpleasant to read and people might miss out on the info you post because of that.

    Gamertag should be free but isn't :(

    If the system says it's taken, then it's taken. The tag system is in use on other Microsoft services, so even if it's not in use on an Xbox, it may be in use somewhere else. The system also doesn't see things like spaces as making a gamertag unique. So while
    you may look up "gamertag" and it shows available, it may actually be in use as "gamer tag".
