XBOX TO REQUIRE SIGN IN EVERY 5 YEARS TO MAINTAIN GAMERTAG

[Tequila]

Microsoft is updating its Services Agreement, and of the most notable changes is that an obligatory sign in once in a 5 year period is now required to maintain your gamertag.

'in the Microsoft Account or Skype Account section, we’ve added a requirement that you must sign into the Xbox Services at least once in a 5-year period to keep the Xbox gamertag associated with your Microsoft account. We’ve also added that if your account is compromised, we may be required to disable access to certain content..

If a user fails to do so, he or she might lose access to the gamertag associated with the Microsoft account, and that gamertag may become available for use by other XBL users.

This should have been done ages ago, more oG's kids.

I will be ready in 5 years to turbo. Jk. lolol. This should not be that hard to someone who cares about what he/she owns.

it feels like they are intentionally trying to ruin the og market and make more cod kids be able to have their bios say OG'S ONLY

@gunnar yeah but it's kinda a good thing though. Some people lose the email or password, eventually it will reset and back to the market or random keeping it. That and some pass away (felt weird saying this) and lost forever unless this thing takes effect. If we own a tag and are still alive and just busy or moved on in life. We don't need/deserve the tag then.
