Hello friends, I can't seem to get my >XI< tags on my COD4 multiplayer screen name. When in multiplayer options and type Painsponge, it does not allow for any more characters. Can somebody please help?

I dont know if there is a max character limit but I am pretty sure you need to get into your player profile and manually change the name.

It's been awhile since I had to do it but I think the in-game way doesnt allow the >< characters.

There is a  Character limit in Cod4, when i was Admin i had to change my name from Sonovabitch>XI<A to Sonovabich>XI<A, but as there are more characters in that than there is in your name i can't understand why you can't get the tags on.

Yes but your name + >XI< IS 15 characters long, same as mine was with Admin tag on the end, that is the limit so you were lucky.
