Subject: I do not have reach, but my profile lists some one else?

In the upper right hand corner of the screen, there's a reach logo next to the halo 3 logo. When I click it, it shows http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/Default.aspx?player=MatTwo7 2

I am not MatTwo72 and I do not know why this appears. This does not happen on waypoint by the way...

Sorry if this is the wrong section.

"I may not be perfect, but always been true."

You linked the wrong Windows Live ID.

I did not actually and my halo 3 profile is just fine.

yeah this reminds me of the time i got sent to jail for stealing crocs from target becozs i wanted all of the colors because i only got the green wons for my birthday and i wanted more ;)

I'm going to try to explain what I think is happening, but chances are it won't make any sense to anyone. I'm not good with words, but I'll try my best.

With the normal Reach player search at the top right, you can type in the first few letters of a gamertag, and it will bring up a list of gamertags with those first few letters.
For example: I type in "oni operat".
There isn't a gamertag with that exact ID, but there are two possible matches: "ONI Operative" and "ONI Operator".
If I was to type in "oni operati", it would take me to "ONI Operative" because there isn't an account called "oni operati".

Now with your case, it appears someone has an almost identical gamertag. When you press the Reach icon, it looks for your gamertag, but it goes to the other gamertag because it is the same as yours but with extra characters on the end. Similar to the example above.
