Hahaha. Im not upset really and wasn't expecting sympathy. Just thought it was an interesting situation.

Thank you all for helping me come to terms with my new life as as barely visible weapon.

 

[EBE]

that name edit. glorious

 

[EvilKatarn]

What does FaintColt mean? And why did they pick it for you; what is it based on?

Xbox has an incredible random gamertag generator. You can try it by registering a new user and making it come up with a name for you.

It would come up with dumb boring crap like TortillaPancakes, FlyingZombie or FaintColt. Numbers are added for extra fun.

oh lmao that name edit.

 

[Gucci Messiah]

Thank you based mod

 

[TheAdmiester]

I'm late to the game, what was their original GAF name? Same as the original Xbox GT?

 

[paragonpro]

Not everyone is into but smashing, i get it.

 

[unapersson]

There, problem solved and saved him $10 to boot.

 

[UpDownLeftRight]

Well OP, at least your GAF and live names match again right? Problem solved.

 

[Princess Viola]

lol @ op's new name

 

[Fat4all]

I feel like "butt" is pretty harmless. All the people with drug references in their names should be addressed first.

It probably has less to do with the word 'butt' then it has to do with the sexual innuendo of 'butt smasher'.

 

[motherxwolf]

This thread made my day

 

[kuroneko0509]

[Kayant]

You'd have to be some of asshole to wish that on a person

OMG!!! Ty.

 

[Zeouterlimits]

Just beautiful.

 

[BennyBlanco]

You had 2 chances and blew it, man. Hard to blame MS here but charging for something like changing your name at all is kinda silly IMO.

 

[Sangetsu-II]

You'd have to be some of asshole to wish that on a person

I love you haha!

 

[Sparrowhawk]

Damn, this thread really made my day much better lol.
That name change is fantastic.

You'd have to be some of asshole to wish that on a person

Hahahaha, this is why I post here.

 

[Nemesis121]

Holycrap the new name hahahahaha

 

[rrc1594]

Love Gaf

 

[SZips]

Simply amazing.

 

[Detective]

I really can't believe you are complaining about this.

First, your name was inappropriate.
Sec, They gave you two attempts to change it for free and yet you are complaining? Really?

Sorry bro, it's on you.

 

[PeskyToaster]

My name is an auto generated one. F the haters.

 

[hesido]

Hahaha. Im not upset really and wasn't expecting sympathy. Just thought it was an interesting situation.

Yes, it's really interesting that you didn't take that hint, twice.

 

[SSReborn]

Oh man lol

 

[xxracerxx]

All is right in the world.

 

[Mr-Joker]

So a little backstory.

I originally had my gamertag as ButtSmasher about 4 years ago. It got flagged for being inappropriate so they made me change it. They let me do so free of charge and I ended up just adding an R to it and had the name ButtSmasherr. Same thing happened not to long after and I did the same thing and added another r leaving me with the name ButtSmasherrr. I haven't had any problems since then. It's been over 3 years.

Then today I log on to play Gears after not really touching my Xbox for about a month and my name is now FaintColt388301. I tried to change it because that name is dumb and they want me to pay $9.99 in order to do so.

I can understand that my name might have been inappropriate and why they would make me change it but to have to pay $10 in order to do so is pretty dumb. Is there anything I can do ot has anybody else had the same problem?

They gave you two free attempt to change it to an appropriate name and you chose to squander it both time.

It's your fault, so reap what you sowed.

 

[bishoptl]

can't type for shit on this phone bah

 

[Dictator93]

oh my... this is hilarious.

 

[Eppy Thatcher]

Greatest backfire ever. Fun and light hearted.. no bannings.. and hilarious to boot.

Thanks for this, FaintColt!

 

[Deadpool_X]

Should've changed it to Smashbutter. You would've been fine, AND you would've been able to stick it to the dairy industry.

 

[Darksol]

FaintColt sounds like a randomly assigned name given to fultoned soldiers in MGSV.

 

[N° 2048]

oh GAF, keep being you.

 

[Unicorn]

Hahahaha plenty of great threads today.

 

[DarkChronic]

lmfao.

read post, saw username, and was like "wait what?"

then read thread. awesomeeeee.

 

[Makki]

In for the laughs. I was hoping it would happen!

 

[Hey Im Patrick]

You can contact support but they'll probably decline since you were given several chances.

Omg. The name changed when changed to page 2 lol. Made me post. Haha

 

[bone_and_sinew]

FaintColt is better than Buttsmasher. Buttsmasher makes you seem like a 13 year old that yells slurs

 

[blame space]

more proof the administration of this website is working directly with M$

 

[onepiecefan]

Lmao, this thread.

 

[FaintColt388301]

I did this for you GAF.

A thread 4 years in the making. I actually wanted this name all along.

 

[Funyarinpa]

GLORIOUS

Kudos, mods

 

[Hexa]

Posting to be a part of this glorious thread. GG OP.

 

[Princess Viola]

It would come up with dumb boring crap like TortillaPancakes, FlyingZombie or FaintColt. Numbers are added for extra fun.

In what world would TortillaPancakes or FlyingZombie be dumb boring crap?

 

[Mattiator]

fantastic read

 

[Newtype-001]

Im dying

 

[cakely]

I came to this thread late, but OP is a really good sport.

 

[Phu]

Hahaha. Im not upset really and wasn't expecting sympathy. Just thought it was an interesting situation.

Thank you all for helping me come to terms with my new life as as barely visible weapon.

You are not a barely visible weapon, you are a barely visible horse. That is how my mind had visualized your new name throughout this entire thread up to this post and that is what it will continue to be.

 

[Alaskanbullworm]

Bwahahahaha

 

[John Caboose]

This is amazing.
