Important Fall Update Message

As posted on the Xbox.com forums, and other community sites:

Here’s a message from TriXie.

If you change the Live ID associated with your gamertag (as the Dash update allows you to do), you will lose all of your forum posts, CUL and icons. All your posts will appear as ‘anonymous’. We’re hard at work on a fix, but we don’t have a fix ready to go out with the update.

If you are particularly attached to your Community User Level or forum icons please DON’T change your Live ID until we deploy a fix. It should only be a few days, and we apologize for the inconvenience. We will let you know as soon as it is safe to change your Live ID and keep all your forum goodness.

To clarify: this only affects those who are attached to their Community User Level on the forums and do not want to lose any associated icons or level. Any other links with your Windows Live ID on your console and Xbox.com should be okay.

If you don’t care about your forum posts, CUL or icons, then hey…enjoy the new feature. Otherwise, do not change it until a fix comes out so your CUL, icons, posts can stay in tact.

So be careful when updating folks, the fix should be done soon, and we’ll let you know as soon as we know. Be sure to spread the word.
