Change of XBL Gamertag

Yeah No Kidding. Everyone is so Racist in halo its not even funny.

Hey I take offense to that generalization! I find racist jokes to be very tasteless, only stupid idiots think that is even amusing. http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Halo3/De...%20DC%2017

On the contrary I find racist jokes hilarious. However just calling someone a beaner or a n**ger on XBL is stupid.

Call of Duty 4 ftw.

Yeah, it seems a lot of kids from Halo 3 migrated over to CoD4 though since it seems like it was the cool thing to do.

Whenever someone starts saying racist things, I just make random mic noises or sing along to some Death Metal song (usually Crystal Mountain).

Man... All you people talking about Halo online and all of the rude people brings back fond memories of before i had Satalite internet...Ohh well..

Back on-topic: Yeah i think it's ridiculus to have to pay $10 just to change your name.

I played a *lot* of Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 online when it first came out, and the racism by the people on there was unbelievable... and it's just my observation, but most of the racist people seemed to have southern American accents...

While most of the racism was against black people, many of the American racists tried to be a little bit fair anyway... they would also insult British people because for some reason they couldn't understand them... I guess because they weren't speaking 'American'... I love when British/Irish/Australian/Kiwis etc., who speak English naturally, are subtitled on tv...

But I digress...

At any rate, I finally gave in today and paid the ridiculous 800MS points to change my name... I guess Bill Gates needs the money.

I ran into more random racism and hate mongering playing CoD4 than Halo and Rainbow 6 combined. I don't know why I haven't traded it in already.

[Ultimatum]

I ran into one racist in my nearly 1 year of playing CoD4 on XBL, I ran into more than I can count after playing Halo 3 for 2 weeks.

[Julio_Strikes_Back]

I've met a few in CoD4, one is in my clan. XD

[Ultimatum]

Yeah, I'm not denying it, a lot of them are just new**** at /b/.

You can usually tell how terribad they are when they keep laughing at themselves.

And you can mute people in CoD4 as well.

My only issue is that I selected a name without putting much thought into it assuming that I could simply change it to something I liked better later... I wasn't aware at the time I selected my gamertag that it would cost me $10 to change it in the future, otherwise I would have considered on it longer, and selected something I wouldn't mind keeping perminantly.

I don't have a 360 but when you create your account it should look like this.
