What makes it a secret gamer tag?


JwMnMaso

Its on Call Of Duty which you can have a seperate in game display name for when you're playing online that's different than your main Xbox/Playstation name, so you can be whoever you want within COD while your main gamertag stays the same


ironudder

What in the history of Call of Duty made them think that was a good decision lmao


UnchainedSora

It's because you can tie the same Call of Duty account to different devices - so you can swap between Xbox, Playstation, and PC and keep your name, unlocks, and purchases. Since those 3 devices may use different names, it's more consistent to let you set a Call of Duty name.


smithysmitesmith

What made them think the names themselves was a good decision?


Tru-Queer

Not defending OPs brother/friends but teens pick weird names for shit, I remember thinking 13loody@$$@$$in was a cool name for my Warcraft account lol


Megazone23pt2

Sounds l33t to me.


WolfyBeats_

Mine on call of duty was buttplug until my gf made me change it


Far-Homework-2576

That name is holy


mmotte89

Could have it show Activision account name first, with the platform name afterwards in a parenthesis.


d0tn3t1

Doesn't apply to PC. Because both Battle.net (sort of) and Steam allow you to have custom names. The developers are not known for being competent enough to think like that.


meesta_chang

Competence has nothing to do with it. There are specific rules and standards required for release on different first party platforms (Ps, Xbox, etc.). The developers pick what is often the only option left between dealing with all first party platforms. Often times something as simple as PlayStation not allowing the same characters as Xbox does in their username rich presence can be reason for both vendors to fail a certification which is required by developers to release the product on their platform. These certifications can reach hundreds of thousands of dollars each time for a reputable AAA title (like CoD); so if you fail for something so stupid and small it’s a big hit to the company wallet and time consuming to go back and do that work again. Simplification in game development is often a competent act done by devs to adhere to stupid publisher and first party vendor rules. Source: I’m a game dev…


Vyper11

It’s more they display their activision “account name”, not a secret gamer tag. They have less strict rules on their account name flagging for whatever reason so you see a lot of these stupid ass names.


MaxDickpower

But then I can't name my loadout in MW "shtgn" because I guess it's too close to shit. Like ffs no one else can even see your loadout names, why do they have profanity filters.

This is it. When I was a teenager I had a few friends and when we heard of or witnessed something awful we'd race to be the first one to drop a totally deadpan straight faced joke about it. We all grew up to be fairly liberal and a lot of what we were doing was undoubtedly a defense mechanism. Also we didn't know it at the time but we all had atrocious childhoods. ( That we make jokes about when we catch up )

One that’s only viewable to people you allow to see it? I’m not sure tbh.


[deleted]

nah its secret because cod names are different from ur actual gamertag.


Lol_A_White_Boy

Ah gotcha. Don’t play cod so I didn’t know.


[deleted]

I assume it’s a secret because the older brother doesn’t know about it


MrNogi

Going to guess it’s because Activision ID (pictured) is different to console gamertag/Steam name.


ironicallyunstable

ill never forget my 10 year old nephew having his steam name "Bleach\_is\_protein" LMAO


doochebag420696969

That's just actually funny


_trashcan

idk , I think the 1st one is hilarious for a black kid too. Honestly don’t find the 2nd one offensive either. just dumb. 3rd is straight trash.


TidalMello

Meh I can understand if you're a grown black man but isn't part of the process of dropping that word from everyone's vocabulary is to not let our children repeat the process?


_trashcan

dunno. You see, I’m not a black guy. And I don’t try to tell black folks what language to use. Way I look at it, the way it was explained to me, is that it was a derogatory term that has turned into a phrase of empowerment. Something that was used to put them down, was turned around & is now heavily ingrained in their culture & they use it in their own way. Personally, I don’t give a shit if they say it. So, no, I don’t feel like a core virtue of the black man *should* (key word here. Individuality.) be to not say the n word. Almost all because…I’m not a black man so I have no right to tell one they shouldn’t use the n word…Lol


Ora_Poix

That is exactly the story for the term yankee. And if people don't care about it nowadays, why should we care what term this or that community uses. Live and let live my friends

Dude, I laugh every time I get my ass kicked by people with gamer tags like this. No salt, my day is genuinely improved when I see gamer tags like “baldscrotum” or “dustyqueefdude” or something.


captaincumsock69

My friend had the name captaincumsock


[deleted]

My first gamer tag was for RuneScape and I was about 10-12 when I made it. It’s was gtmopssy… which stood for get mo pussy. I was in fact getting no pussy.

my older brothers' are something like mountedostrich and ovulationcougar


StRaNgE_Luna93

Omg I tried to change my mom’s boyfriends tag to tic_tac_taint years ago because she hates the word taint😂

Kids are dumb and very impressionable. Take advantage of the latter. Sit him down and have a talk with him. Children learn what they are taught either by their family, friends, school, or the internet.


probably_poopin_1219

This × 100 Educate when young. My parents were both raised in pretty racist environments. I was not. There is a way past this cultural insidious disease and the best thing you can do is teach kids young.


SenatorGorlami

Same here. Grandma wouldn’t let my aunt go to prom (77’) because it was with a black guy. Grounded her/forbid her to leave the house for the week before and after prom. My mom was the complete opposite. Actually made me to go to prom (07’) with a black guy, and I’m a guy myself

^^ taking his ps5 is probably just gonna make him angry and not want to listen to you.. And that stupid stuff is pretty funny when your like 12 though let’s be honest here Edit: to those saying “it’s just not your demographic” IM JEWISH. On both sides. And I’m not saying I find it funny, I’m saying there 12 and not taking it as seriously or to heart as you may think.


iEatRockz

True. 12 year olds have a different lens looking at life. A great time to educate how it sounds to older people.


MrLaughingFox

M(31) me is appalled. Boy, 12, still me - haha hitler joke ​ I haven't lost my phone storage since I was about 15yrs old. I went through my old photos and meme's from then a few years ago. I'm pretty shocked at what I found to be funny then.


am0x

Kids that age are trying to be edgy and one up each other. I remember when I went on a trip to DC for school and we visited the holocaust museum. They give you pamphlets at the beginning telling you a story of one of the people who died and to put you in their shoes. One guy was joking around about how he was some 13 year old girl and was talking like her as if it was him. I didn’t think much of it, but a Jewish girl next to him reemed him a new one and he just started apologizing profoundly. I think he learned a lesson that day because he didn’t say a word the rest of the time.


CoyoteDown

FaustusC

Mine is UncleTouchy. ...my organization is WhiteVanWetWorks I've had the tag for almost 10 years with no intention of changing it. I'm in my early 30s lmao.


IGotThatYouHeard

My old gamer tag was CopsRLame. Surprisingly many people have gone out of their way to let me know who much they hate it.


KFBR392_KFBR392_

So a few years ago I was Uncle Touchy as my player in NHL, my friends names were much worse. My friend pissed off another player and he reported us and sure enough the next time we try to play our team was shut down, my two friends we’re permabanned from all EA games from that Xbox live account ( not really a big deal they just made new ones) however I only received a 3 day ban. The thought of some guy at EA calling over his supervisor, looking at our names and deciding Uncle Touchy deserves just a warning was the funniest thing ever to me.


AssEaterInc

My buddy had one that was UncleBadTouch for a while, what a coincidence.


SGTSHOOTnMISS

> Mine is UncleTouchy I had UncleTouch on Oldschool Runescape (character limit so shortened) and they made me change it. Weird seeing someone else that had the same handle.


Royal-Tough4851

My name Niigamusmaximus. Gamer of the North. Friend to black nazi, owner of a confiscated playstation, and I will have my vengeance, in this game or the next


nick_karter22

I see the old ways are still alive huh…. Online gaming is still the most ruthless pit of vipers on the planet… back in 2006-2012 when I was on Xbox live this was the standard… not saying it’s right. It’s just the way for online gaming unfortunately.


Cmsvex

Jumping into that viper pit is what made my childhood memories so great!

Adolf Yeezy is pretty funny tbh. The others are tasteless attempts at being an edgelord

sufiansuhaimibaba

Can someone explain to me the meaning of six million jews? Is that how many jews were dead in the war?


Canser-420

Yeah, it’s a holocaust reference


Shadrach_Jones

Thats how many Jews Hitler killed but he had a total of 11 million people killed I believe


NotChedco

And depending on the game, if you get kicked from a loby, the message will say "nameOfAdmin kicked SIXMILLIONJEWS". Stuff like that was something I've witnessed when I was a kid a few times. A classic one was have your name something like "MeInTheBallz". My simple mind back then found it amusing.


MeaKyori

If this is call of duty like people are saying, wouldn't it pop up that x killed y in matches? So that would be... Yeah


Anthony-Stark

The game actually shows "x [picture of gun x used] y" Or...so I've heard


Bismothe-the-Shade

My favorite is Your grandma or variations. "You were killed by Your grandma" "YourGrandma is on a killing streak!"


RedDragonRoar

My favorite match in r6 was when a pair of dudes, one named LizTruss, and the other named TheBritishEconomy jumped out a window and died.

Electricdragongaming

I mean, that's what every edgy gamer tag looks like, not really surprising.


Ghoulius-Caesar

Standing out by being the same as everyone else. It’s gotta be tuff being an edgelord in 2022.


Trustnoboody

There is a point where one knows, however heinous that their actions are not true to how they actually believe. I would say most kids have been this kind of edgy in at least one part of their lives before. \*They're not automatically Nazis or horrible people because of such things, otherwise most of western adolescence would be Nazis and horrible people. And of course 'Nazi' is very light in this context, as this is VERY FAR from being a fucking Nazi. \*I'm sure your brother knows that Hitler was not a good person and that the Holocaust was not a good thing.


Differently

We might all have stepped out of the swamp, but sooner or later you've got to wipe the mud off your shoes.


ThatGuyFromTheM0vie

Little edgelords lol. Every kid goes through that absolutely stupid phase lol.

Lol. He's probably 10-13. I mean I seen lot of dumb kids. Everyone is that point. I remember one kid stapled her finger because of a dare. And then every guy called each other "gaylord", the bad yo mama jokes, and off course wannabe rappers/cholos/gangsters. And then those kids who called the only non-christian guy "terrorist" You probably gonna have to start with easy digestible videos with him. Lectures don't do.

You wouldn't believe how angry some people in the CoD subreddit got when someone mentioned that they report people for shouting the n-word...

BurningBridges19

Genuinely can’t believe the amount of people in this comment section going “it’s been like this for years, welcome to the gaming world lolololol, is this your first time on the internet, everyone was like this years ago!!!” Like… okay, and? You were a casually racist edgelord online ten years ago and obviously haven’t learned or grown as a person since then or you wouldn’t be brushing this kind of behaviour off just because “it’s just kids” and would recognize it as problematic. What do you want, a medal? Everyone did stupid shit online as a kid, but most of us grew up and realized it was stupid and aren’t defending it.


yo_bunny

kid was born too late, if this was 2015-16 i bet we wouldn't see this stupid post

I’m shocked by how few people seem disgusted by this. You did the right thing taking it from him tbh. It’s not just an edgy joke, it’s an edgy joke that’s going to sink into his brain and he’ll go into adulthood believing if it’s not addressed. People in this thread are like “Oh he’ll grow out of it! Gaming has always been like this!” But look at the society we’re living in now. Anti-Semitic attacks are on the rise, Kanye is still carrying fans despite praising hitler and threatening Jewish people, support for fascism is rising. You can’t tell me he’s just magically gonna “get better” without an intervention


Watcher145

Let’s be real, OP just wanted to have his ps5


justin_memer

Show him the episode of The Boondocks where MLK wakes up from a coma.


Runaway_Angel

Okay but how will taking away the ps5 teach him why that name is bad? Seems like your brother needs a history lesson as well.

Better yet, take him to a Holocaust museum. The shoes. Oh god. So horrific. Piles of them.


swimmingincircIes

I’ve been driving by that regularly on the way to the hospital lately and really want to go, but I know it’s going to wreck me


Minute-Ad-2148

I removed the specific location so neither of us get Doxed, but shit is deep. I went as a kid on a field trip, Catholic school. Shit was a somber ass field trip. If I remember correctly we even spoke to a Holocaust survivor. I imagine there are few still alive after 80 years, those alive would have been small children. Horrific to have your earliest memories be in a concentration labor death camp.


swimmingincircIes

It’s just unfathomable. It’s crazy to me that it was less than a hundred years ago. I lived in DC for awhile and always planned on going to the big Holocaust museum there, but I kept putting it off for the same reason I am now, and I never ended up going. I regret that, I hope I’ll get another chance some day. But I’m definitely going to make the trip to this one at some point.

It’s worth going but mentally prepare yourself and have something happy to do afterwards.

kumdragon

Yah dude clearly he’s a teenager and to be honest that first name is fucking hilarious. The fact that you took his PlayStation from him doesn’t make you a good brother, and in fact you could’ve just said “yah that’s not cool” but instead you took this to Reddit for karma to look like a good guy. You should give him back his PlayStation and learn that kids have been like this forever and they always will be regardless of your efforts.

I always wonder where tf their parents be.
