Has anyone contacting Microsoft and got a reply? (I doubt it, normally takes around 2 weeks). I'm trying to think why they would disallow it. It's pretty stupid. I don't think it's to do with copyrighted names etc. As I have seen a lot of company names as gamertags.

Missing some context? Yes, you are. Read everything that is quoted in this post.

I had an X360, but I sold it after 6 months Tongue. I only bought it for Gears of War.

Same here. I only bought it for the exclusive games.

I don't know about that. One of the reasons I took my business to sony is because of their unhelpful support and rudeness.

Write bitcoin backwards. Nioctib.  Actually, nevermind.
They'll take it as some type of undiscovered drug, lol.
BTW, that's a XBOX motto?

maybe it's not allowed to use brandmarked terms there for legal reasons, and they added Bitcoin recently.  Smiley
