Taking a Gamertag from an Inactive player

Ab6ad0n · Mar 18, 2016

is it possible to get a gamertag from a player that has been inactive for several years. Because there's a Gamertag i want and another person has it and i viewed their profile and they have 0 gamer points so i know they have never played.

They do release names they just don't announce it so account buyers can get the name before you do

That's the point

It's is unexpected

You will have to just keep trying to take the name it is that simple or be more creative

When a name is released and your check if it's taken then if it's free then voila you get it

Vs no chance because the eBay sellers grab 10000s of released names before you do and you would be paying 100s to get the name

It isnt an on demand service to prevent another mass selling of names just like the previously stated scenior a seller could request 100s of names to be released and where would you be

You would be buying it from a account seller and fyi buying an account is a violation of the terms of use

There is very little point you might as well just check randomly you would have a far better chance

No. The tag system is in use on other Microsoft services as well. So even if they aren't using it on the Xbox, it could be in use somewhere else.

It takes 7 years for a inactive gamertag to be recycled.

I would actually buy the gamertag I have my eyes on but it won't be released until 2019 and that's too long. Hello to the people looking at this in 2019!
