Why Isn't There A XBL GT and PSN ID Option In The Profile Editing?

(Wasnt sure where to put this) So yeah, i was just wondering why we can only share our Steam IDs and not our Xbox Live Gametag and/ or PSN ID in our profile?

Proberly cause you can create a hyperlink to your steam page where you cant to your XBL or PSN accounts! Although i'd like to see them put one in, so i have more brony freinds to play with at the weekends!

Hi Wyllow,

 

I've moved this to Feedback and Suggestions, where your idea can be better reviewed by one of the MLP Forums staff.

You can probably put that information in your profile description.

And people could also put their Steam in their profile, but they dont have to, they can just put their Steam name in a specially marked box.

There are sites that let you display your PSN or XBL profiles, but they're not official, unlike the Steam Community. That's probably why.

Putting your SteamID actually turns it into a link directly to their Steam profile. 

 

Is this still the current format of the XBox LIVE?

I assume so. Which sucks a lot.

Ok, then there could be a technical solution to this similar to how the site addresses DeviantArt and Steam. You enter your user name (in this case Gamer Tag) and the forum handles the rest of the URL. Good suggestion overall. Any downsides you can think of by linking XBLIVE Gamer Tag URL's in a profile?
