Gay gamer's Gamertag banned from LIVE

TVGB: "Anyone who has spent any amount of time playing games on Xbox LIVE knows that it isn't the friendliest place for gay gamers. The word gay gets thrown around as an insult so often (even by people who don't think that they're homophobic) that I don't know how any gay gamer gets through a match of Halo without being seriously insulted. Now Microsoft has taken it to another level by banning a gay gamer who's Xbox LIVE Gamertag is 'thegayergamer'. Why? Because of general complaints from the community."
