This is an honest question, so please answer accordingly. Thank you.

Last night, I was talking with my friend and told him about Bungie and its amazing community forum with some intelligent and cool people. I showed him what it looked like and even posted around to show him how it all works, and he thought it looked pretty cool. After he had gone home he tried to make an account, but it wouldn't allow him to make an account with his hotmail.

What gives? How come he can't sign up with a hotmail email account?

Please don't answer with, "Still using the 'friend' excuse, I see?"

He needs to use a windows live I.D.

I think, could be wrong.

If he is using a hotmail account, I think you just have to click "sign in" rather than "sign up". I could be wrong, but I remember my friend having the same problem.

But hotmail is a WLID. That's what we don't get.

Strange, wait for an employee or web team to answer, if they will.

That's kind of what I was hoping for. They know more about their own website than anybody, so I figured they might be able to help shed some light on the subject.

Tell him to click sign in, not sign up.

He has to enter his hotmail and password then click sign in. Thats how you create an account, he might be clicking sign up.

to change your name create a new account.

Do I do it the same way I just did it? Just go to 'Sign In' instead of 'Sign Up'?

You have to create a new hotmail, there can only be one account per email.

  • 03.15.2012 8:06 AM PDT

Aww... But this is the email account I have set up with my GT. Are you sure that's the only way?

If you want your xbox live account associated with your new hotmail you just need to change the email thats on your xbox to your new one.

  • 03.15.2012 8:23 AM PDT

So technically I would have to have 2 emails? That sucks...

Considering the situation you have found yourself in already since joining, i'd say the name fits.
