  Tbh, I'm guessing most of the gamertags with Gay in it are using it in a derogatory fashion. I mean, it's not as if he can prove to them that he is in fact gay.

    Good point. The mods or whoever authorities probably didn't know that he was actually gay. But I guess this kinda thing just makes gay people think that the world is against them or something.

    I wanted to post "Zing!" but apparently I need 25 characters. Lame.

  Well, the name isn't derogatory. It isn't like he put "GaysSUCK" (LOL, if you don't get it, re-read it) as a gamertag or something...It pretty much implies that he (though it could also be she, though I know it isn't), himself is gay....

    That's what I was thinking. It's not like they can prove that he ISN'T gay in the first place. Don't exactly know what is the problem with the name except for the fact that people are easily offended.

  Lord 80, you *bleep*ing idiot.
  
  Anyways, as to the topic at hand, is that name really necessary? If he was in fact gay, he's just making himself an unnecessary target for homophobic abuse. If he's not gay (as most kids who will choose to put the word "gay" in their GT), then it's just a way to make fun of gays all over.
  
  MS didn't ban him for being gay or anything, they just want him to change his name. Having such a controversial name on a service full of immature 10 year olds who don't know what to do around homosexuals (like this twat Lord_80) is just going to jade and alienate theGAYERgamer instead of making him want to use XBL.

    Ah Sereph, I was actually thinking about it.
    
    Mind you, I don't think he should be getting this sort of trouble, but the fact is, he was making himself a target.
    
    I mean, you hear about people calling others 'fags' and 'gay' as an insult on LIVE, making your gamertag openly homosexual is kinda asking for it to be worse.
    
    It shouldn't be an issue, but common sense dictates that it will be....
    
    Much the same as if say, a woman posted "PromiscuousDramaQueen" or some crap like that....It may be just a name, but it is kind of 'asking for it', and they would probably know it.
    
    The fact is, while it shouldn't be the case, there are oversensitive people on the net, and jerks besides. If you're going to post something needlessly attention-seeking, you better be prepared for the attention, especially negative stuff...

  Why cant you just accept gay people for who they are? Who the hell do you think you are by saying that they dont deserve to be out in public like everyone else? I seriously hope you were kidding, becuase thats not cool

  Whilst this article is on a sensitive nature, mind I remind people, that explicit outbursts against any group of people aren't tolerated, and will find yourself banned, as one member whose comments have been deleted has now found himself...
  
  i.e. if your homophobic, keep it to yourself.

  I doubt having that name was nessecary, he was just asking for abuse. As other people have said, words like "fag" are particularly popular insults on XBL.

  Meh. Regardless of whether he is gay or not, it's hardly an offensive gamertag.
