Is that your actual Gamer tag? That's my brothers' name

In all seriousness, yes. You can tell that they are all fake as they upload NO proof and do not tell you what you get. All they post is that they can host and just display their tag. I guess that's what you boys call "leechers".

Nah thats just a GT i made up on the spot haha. But what saddens me a bit is the fact that if I post a topic, claiming to be a hacker for bo2 I can easily trick people by coloring the words on my post.

Well coming from hoster i ask people to post legit before there in because if they dont do it before,they wont after even if its legit.If people dont think im legit i tell them to pm me so we can figure out what i did wrong and ill help them.Also,like you guys said to keep your topic alive and not get warning for bumping your own topic. bbn)

ya it just lets everyone know that they are legit cause most likely if that many people are posting it is legit

Katsumi wrote I dislike when i see members posting legit on a topic when they do not know it's legit as of yet. It makes it harder for members to differentiate between a Legitimate lobby and an illegitimate lobby.

Indeed, that is rather annoying.. :/

ThisIs50 wrote People do this so that people post on their topic and it 'bumps' the topic to the top.

They could bump their selves but that would result from a ban.

So they get the naive users to get them to bump it.

That is not always the case. Most modders well the legit modders do this in order to save time from getting banned.
As most of you may know by now, Microsoft is known to lurk the forums. So lets say I'm hosting right now. A MS Employee looks at my thread, he sees my gamertag. What do you think the first thing he is going to do? Ban Me.
Now lets say I didn't post my gamertag, he would have no clue what account im using so it would take longer for them to ban me.
I dont see in anyway how that is 'naive'
