Worst Xbox Live gamer name

Three times I have now heard it mentioned on Live that my name is the worst name they have seen....the cheeky *****.

All whilst playing MW2. Maybe MW2 players are just mean..hehehe

Whats the worst gamer name you have seen on live?

Re: Worst Xbox Live gamer name

You should change it to xXx 5h!n613z xXx. I get a lot of grief because of the 'UK' on the end of my tag. I'm an instant target for any of our colonial cousins.

IMO, the worst tags are the unreable ones like the above. I'm sure people think it's cool to sp311 w0rdz lik3 th1z, but if I can't read it at a glance, it's no use.

Re: Worst Xbox Live gamer name

Aye the text type/replace letters with symbols names are a bit daft.

I seriously think people think I am actually called Mr Shingles. Sadly Im not it is just a user name I use for forums/masn etc for years and it has kind of stuck.

It does just seem to be the Americans who comment on the name mind.

Re: Worst Xbox Live gamer name

Just 'Shingles' as a GT would be cool. Then in game messages would read things like 'You were killed by Shingles'.

Re: Worst Xbox Live gamer name

I dunno if it's the worse, but I was online with MW2 last night and played with a guy call 'Teabagger 98'.

If thats not bad enough, the guy was about 10 years old. His balls prob haven't dropped far enough to teabag anyone yet

LOL, The number of times you hear smack talk from GTs like 'IcE NiNjA Ki11A' then you'll hear 'Jimmy, have you done your homework? dinnertime soon.' in the background.

You're just saying that to get out of a tenner! I'll take the Super Elite instead

OT, I can't think of any bad ones, though D Gibbons is a bit lame - don't say that to his face though as he's a very bad man! LOL

Same here, been on the receiving end of some sustained teamkills because of the uk suffix

Re: Worst Xbox Live gamer name

personally i dislike the ones that have tons of numbers in them, i saw a guy with something like DHY0642978

i thought mine was quite good but you'd be surprised how many people say it as "M4 RICKY"

Re: Worst Xbox Live gamer name

I love the fact there are people out there who are intelligent enough to say my name the way it should be, they say Fei. Just like youre supposed to. ! :D

Although some Americans pronounce it Feee which is rather annoying.

Also I have not have one person, whilst talking to them, not sound uncomfortable or as if they have just learnt a new word when trying to address me for the 1st time.
