It's always been a laid back general rule, but I think we should start enforcing having your username on the forums being your Gamertag. Why? Because as Forerunner Conflict gets more members, it's hard for Admins and Field Marshals (as well as other Officers) to keep their soldiers aligned, and changed their usergroup titles, etc. This way, it's an easy search to find a certain person. So, my suggestion is that we have usernames equaling gamertags, letter for letter.

I feel called out

Change mine to Victor 101 SII if you want, any admin reading.

Haha no Victor! xD It wasn't about anyone inperticular. I just know that Field Marshals looking to promote certain people, or certain Privates to PFC and such, would find it difficult when they type in the gamertag of the person, only to see that name doesn't exist on the forums. I know Eagle went through a LOT of trouble on that spectrum. This would just clear up the mess.

I thought this was always a rule? I really don't understand why you wouldn't use your gamertag. It's just confusing.

Can we get an amendment about this? And about being signed up on the website as mandatory if it isn't?

Well, I'm not changing mine. Why? Because I almost never go on XBL any more, let a lone partake in the war.

REBEL!

Def for leaders. If someone has to get in touch with you but you have the wrong gamertag, what happens then?

I AGREE!

Guys, you don't need this as an amendment. Just tell people their usernames are going to get changed and that's that.

And then the next 50 people come in without their gamertags as their usernames? O.o Seems like a burden on the Admins to keep changing them all. Just make a rule so we have justification.

I agree, when attempting to get Relapsive the roster for the 2nd Assault I couldn't find King Carlito on the forums . . . I found out later that his username here was Young King . . .

Yeah, same here, but just recommend, it isn't that necessary.

Just tell them when you recruit them. Seriously, this is a nit-picking them; just make those pesky greenhorns do it themselves when they come in. The Accords are meant for the main important stuff.
