    Why was my gamertag pic changed, had it since 360 (avatar pic)


    It happened after I made a post that was labeled "trolling" even though it wasn't, I was telling the truth about black desert and MS.

    Now they changed my pic to a dog, sounds like I'm the one being trolled?

    I've had that pic since avatars were released on 360, of my OG avatar, and I have friends that can verify.

    :)

    Why was my gamertag pic changed, had it since 360 (avatar pic)

    No-one has access to my account but me, I checked login records of the IP addresses and nothing out of the normal.

    My online buddy said it could've been snowflakes that could only report my profile picture as I've done nothing wrong, in order to get it changed if it received enough reports it would automatically get changed.. Which gives me validation in what I was previously
    saying in another discussion.

    Here's the thing, the original 360 pics have a smaller image, so they replaced my actual image with a dog that is the same resolution size.

    I did have a perfect reputation before my post but it says I received 125 reports in-game.. I haven't played any other game the past 2 months except black desert online, and on that game you CAN'T report players gamertags (that's what my original post was
    about). They said it's cause BDO is on private servers, but you have to use a XBL account to play the game, and MS has set their chat filters on the game which means they possibly have more control over the game than they were letting on.

    Either way this is kinda absurd, had the pic for over 8 years, and there's no way to replicate it the way I had it via xbox one.

    Hey there

    If the enforcement site says you have a perfect record then the pic wasnt changed by microsoft and you havent been punished ie a enforcement action.

    Is it possable that a friend or family may of changed your pic has a joke ?

    The xbox one has the same feature where you can take a screenshot of your avater with a pose. Using the Avater app. Feel free too retake the picture and add it back.

    I would also advise on changing your account password and using a pass key if you use a shared console to aviod this

    It was a pic of my Avatar on 360, There was NO reason for it to of changed.

    Enforcement says I'm in perfect standing.

    There's no way to get my pic back.

    Here's my proof. What it was, and what it got changed to without my permission or notification - and it happened after my discussion got labeled as "trolling" when I was bringing up a valid point, others would've called that censorship.

    Has this happened to anyone else? With the timing it feels like I'm being trolled in all honesty. Have had it since avatars launched on 360, they had a feature where you customize avatar and
    then make a pose for a screenshot to set as profile pic.

    I had a generic pic on my microsoft account for pc, but it was changed to this tiny picture of a dog as well.

    That's an enforcement issue, so no one here can really assist you

    For more info, head Here.

    If your picture has been changed though, it may have been judged against the guidelines in some way and was reported?

    Did you get an email or notification of the violation and change? If not, the change didn't come from enforcement.
