I remember a long, long time ago when you could actually play Zanzibar in matchmaking and you could actually link your gamertag. It was so easy. All you had to do was type your gamertag in some box and you were done. Now, you have to go to Xbox Live's website. No matter what you do it tries to make you create a new silver account. I can't figure this out. Can anyone help?
Thanks,

This did not help at all:
<a target="_blank" href="http://www.bungie.net/help/content.aspx?link=bungi enet_help#xboxlive">Linking gamertag help</a> provided by the handy help link, down at the bottom right corner of every page.
When I follow the link I get the same crap. They try to make me create a silver account. Why can't I just use mine?

Honestly? Im literally trying for the 100th time at this very instant to Link up. I came here for help. but you beat me too it.
Everytime I start to get through the linking Process, I get to the parental consent thing... and no matter what info I put it for them, when I hit next and get past the screen that lets them select what i can do on LIVE... it goes back to the screen asking if they have a Live ID or not...

The same exact thing happens to me! I have tried to do at least 50 times in the last coulple of hours that I've been at it!

EDIT: I found a way to view your stats without linking your GT, but its more of a hassle then linking it, anyway, its better than nothing so here it is, you go to your profile and where it says 'Search by Gamertag" enter your GT and it should bring up your stats! It did it for me!

I'm royally screwed as far as linking goes. I have no idea which credit card was used to create the account, it might even be expired.

Dont you just have to look up your Live ID e-mail address and insert that in the registration process? Or is this linking in a different fashion. I did it very easily on this new account. I think you just need a .NET passport with the same e-mail as your XBL account, which you are supposed to have already.

Umm... my xbl account doesn't have an e-mail address.
