Nope, Had this ID since I got my PS3. The nice part about a PS3 is you can always create a new name and you don't have to pay to do so.

No. I'm happy with my current username. I wouldn't have used it in the first place if I didn't.

Whats a "gamertag"?redskins2156

It's your username on PSN. Gamertag is just a term that's become synonymous with anything regarding usernames for a console based service.

no way. I've been using this name since Diablo, I got it from my brother. I always try to pay special attention when I name something. (A character, alt account, forum name, etc). I try to NEVER use numbers unless it's a 0 (like my GS name.. it's actually 0(zero)rin. But I only did that cause Orin was taken. :/ But I mean like.. Orin2882 or something. Just kinda breaks it for me. A name should never be a number :P Leave that stuff to the government :P

Wouldn't change mine at all as I have it on my license plate on my car - at least a variation of ir

I have it on my car as B4LDGUY as the 71 doesn't fit and someone in NY state apparently already has the same thing with the actual 'A'

Nope. Mine suits me perfectly (FYI, it's not my GS user name).

Really, though, the option to change it, if even for a fee, should be there for people who do want to change theirs.

Nah I like how mine doesn't have any weird numbers or odd symbols in it. Makes it easier to read/say and makes it stand out on a match waiting list, for better or worse.

Technically you can change your gamertag for 800 MSP since PS3 doesn't use 'gamertags' :P But no I wouldn't change my PSN ID if I could. I use the same name for pretty much everything so I'm used to it.

I wouldn't change mine. I like it and I think it's rather unique.

I wouldn't change my gamertag, but I would pay to have it deactivated. I've lost control of 3 of the accounts. I would get Playstation Plus if I could do that.

Agreed. It's not fair to make everyone create a new account and lose everything they gained and/or have associated to they're old account just to change their username. They should really get to work on fixing that.
