I have lost what could not be lost...hope, is lost.

Well, I was playing Tiger 10 today, got up to take a leak and grab a soda, only to come back to the TV and see my profile (SOFA KIN WHAT) has been signed out. When I tried signing back in, it told me that my account has been logged in, but not by me. About ten minutes later I get this message when I tried to sign in saying that my user name was unappropriate and has been removed forever. I don't know why it got changed now because I've had it for years, and I haven't even played with anyone online for at least a month. maybe someone here reported me? I dunno. I'm hoping I still have all my site info, like True Achieve, RB, etc...

Anyhow, no more SOFA KIN WHAT, so if I was in your friend's list, I will be in there under my new gamer tag, Snippy DePini.

That sucks balls. I do know that 360 voice has a way to transfer your gamertag when stuff like this happens .

Dude, all due respect but I was wondering when it was going to happen to you for about as long as you've had it.

Yep. All it takes is one person to report your name. Looks like that's what happened.

Stay classy dvdsteve.
I liked the other name. Can't believe someone would complain about that.

Have you picked out what your third gamertag is going to be once someone decides that the new one is inappropriate?

I can't believe I just now figured out what "Sofa Kin What" means. I've seen the name pop up a bunch of times when you came online, but I never really thought about it.

Man, you take your Wii seriously. I believe he was commenting on the 360 avatars which rip-off the Wii's Miis. Take a deep breath.

<----- WiiTard

I doubt it was the intention of the thread, but this is a prime example of one of the main reasons I don't own an Xbox: The level of maturity on Live.

Are they calling Avatars "WiiTards" now? Really?

The common lexicon is to call Wii owners/fanboys "WiiTards".

I don't share your optimism about his intentions, but I s'pose only he knows.

I also took it as a dig on Wii owners, not Avatars. Sofa Kin What was decent, WiiTards Suck is infantile by comparison.

I have heard or seen both 360 and Wii owners call the Miis and 360 avatars that. Actually I think I saw it first on a Wii fan forum. Like 360 owners who make fun of their own RROD, I thought it was a joke among Wii owners as well regarding the Miis.

I guess that is me assuming the best but I own all consoles so I can give a middle finger to everyone or ignore everyone. My choice.

Re: I have lost what could not be lost...hope, is lost.

I was also wondering when that name would get changed. Once your new name also gets reported, just pick something nobody's going to find offensive. It shouldn't be that hard. Then you can just say offensive things online all the time because, you know, that's what Live is all about.

If it's any consolation, my 8 year-old daughter liked seeing you sign in when we play Rock Band.

I hate how rediculously politically correct this country has become. If someone is really offended by the username "Sofa Kin What" then they should just go live under a fucking rock or something.

Hey, kids, don't forget to buy your GTAIV expansion, The Ballad of Gay Tony, when it comes out!

Whoa whoa whoa, hang on a second there Richard Gaywood and theGAYERgamer. We need to speak with you over here...

Re: I have lost what could not be lost...hope, is lost.

Uh oh, maybe I should be worried. Rock Band won't let me use my gamertag to name my characters. Even in Grand Slam Tennis on the Wii I can't use that name.

I wasn't able to put my Rockband name online. Our group name was PEN15.
