We all know that users on Xbox Live face a lot of hate, especially if they are gay. One gamer with the tag "TheGayerGamer" has had his name changed because it was deemed offensive.

We ask, "Why?"

What is offensive about that name? Would they change "TheStraighterGamer" for being offensive?

Microsoft's support supervisor claimed that while she did not find the name offensive, the Xbox community did and that is the reason for the change.

Shame on you, Xbox Live. Shame on you, Xbox Live community.
