Default Real Name? Real Bans on XBL

Last week, Microsoft banned a user from Xbox Live for having the gamertag theGAYERgamer. [Only registered users can see links. ]. Now, tonight, we get an email from another Xbox Live user whose gamertag has been barred because it violates XBL policies (remember, you can't have a sexual term in your name, regardless of sexual orientation). The incriminating gamertag? RichardGaywood. The problem here? It's the gamertag of Richard Gaywood, a now-slightly-disgruntled 360 owner from the UK (and yes, we've confirmed this is his real name). Oops.

Seriously, they need to moderate things a little better over there.

>.< Ouch, he's going to have a hell of a time trying to find a different gamertag. Anything besides real names are taken. Even moo17921.

I had grannystabber for years and nothing was ever said and someone gets there actual name taken off, they kind of need to filter these things a bit. grannysback is the name now, i got too many shouting my name out in lobbies because they thought it was funny... some people have annoying voices .
