I understand why they charge for it, but I do think it is a little pricey.

Yea, no. Stop making bad threads. $10 is fine. In fact you should have a well-thought out gamertag. That way you'd never have to pay the fee, like me.

It's expensive so people don't change there gamertag every day.  When the 360 first came out it was free and everyone was changing their gamertags constantly.  I didn't know who anyone on my friends list was because they all kept changing ther tag.

I don't recall it ever being free. From what I remember, you couldn't change your tag at all. Then they came out with the priced name changes. I'm almost certain there was never a free name change.

It does cost 800 MS points. Someone else was joking about raising the price. Because the TC thinks the price is outrageous.

Thought so. Although $10 seems kind of pricey, we should be glad it doesn't cost anymore.

I wish they didn't have an option to change it. All you have to do is sit down and think of a decent gamertag. Instead of adding a bunch of fucking numbers and next week thinking, "Man let me change my tag."

I decided a while ago to just use the same username everywhere, so I don't have to think about problems like this. So far, it's worked out great.

Also, they charge for it so every teenager changes his/her gamertag every week, which I imagine would put some strain on the servers and lead to a nightmare for the moderators.

The price is there to discourage people from doing it. If it was free you know people would abuse it to no end.

I have to agree with this. Pick something smooth and memorable and move on....

A lot of the times, yes. But the true negativity only comes out when such a terrible thread is made. Why are you complaining about a price that you never have to pay?

Dude, just think of a good name to start with, and you never have to change it. I am content with mine, and face it, you probably weren't there immediately to grab your first name so think of something else. It's not a big deal.

I ask to see if anyone else feels the same way about something completely harmless as a name change. Not that big of a deal, who cares if people can't make up their minds about their names. Doesn't mean it's a terrible thread, just because I ask a question.

I paid the change for mine over a year ago now. My original gamertag was MAST3R HITCHI, so you can see why I was willing to change it. No?
