So you can't remove the bad gamertag? Can you remove other gamertags?

Yes, -my- server.
Let me get this straight... Your basically telling me you don't like something my app doesn't do. Thats good, right? Even though people really don't seem to understand or read previous replies, and keep asking for it, its not even possible for me to do it. The app never asks for your live credentials, and never will. All it does, is take the list of gamertags you add to it, and individually grabs information for each of them. And even then, only if their privacy settings permit it.
The reason it goes through my server is mostly because of microsoft and their rules. They ask developers to keep the location of the feed secret. If the pre was directly contacting the feed, anyone could easily sniff out the request and learn the location of the feed. They also require developers in the program to supply a guid so they know whos asking for what information. And the prototype ajax functions don't allow me to supply my guid as the "referrer" of the request.
So in short: the ONLY way this app would even be possible on the pre, or allowed by microsoft is by going through a 3rd party server. In this apps case, my server. And if you really have a problem with my server simply knowing of a gamertag you're asking for information about, don't use the app.
And just to be clear, again, for what feels like the 10th separate time I've said this:
This app doesn't ask for your live credentials, and it never will, it is not possible, or a good idea.
(Though I'm sure as soon as this thread gets to another page, someone will ask it again...)
