They finaly did it.

It took MS over three years to determine that my user name on XBL was too controversial. Gspot was banned. I registered the name after I bought my 360 on launch day over three years ago.

When I turned on my 360 yesterday I was forced to change my user name if I wanted to log into Live. Why now? I don't even play multiplayer games on-line, nor do I contact others, so why would MS force me to do a name change after three years? I did not even have the option to protest to the 360 name police counsel. The worst part is that now 3 years have passed and I can't even use hitthegspot, some one else has registered it and they didn't get banned, go figure.

What's in a name? I thought up the name when gmail was launched. How great would gspot@gmail be? I thought Google would buy it from me when they come out of beta. So I tried to register the name years ago and gspot was too short to register. So I thought hitthegspot@gmail, success, and the name was born. No one used it. I also changed my alias to Gspot@gmail. Brilliant.

Back to MS. So matters must be taken in other ways. I will be writing a letter to MS. I know this is futile, but one must try if they want results. I also have changed my XBL user name. Lets see how long it takes them to find hitthegspotawet. I'm not a pervert, I'm a pissed off adult that should be able to name things what they want, so long as minors are not involved. I will post an update after I hear back from MS.

And also you should add in the blog its also bs cuz you get online then you get to hear all the little f@gs cusing and crap so wtf.. just make online A.O and be done with it i got PS3 so its free for me .. and if you pay money you should be able to put whatever the heck you want on there........ Check my blogs to ppl there only 1 lol

I kind of agree, banning that name is idiotic when pretty much every online game you go on is populated with 12 year olds who speak how they think "gangstas" speak.

What were they thinking? Everyone knows that Gspot stood for Game spot or Gentlemen spot.

Drakol6290d ago

The "G-spot" for a man is in his butt... What? I'm just saying!

Anyways, sorry to hear what happened to your account. They should have at least let you transfer over your Gamer Points.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster924d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
