VERTIGO
It only works in these places:
When your callsign appears and it shows Clantag
When you connect(oddly enough it shows "Unboundyourname connected")
This is really stupid, I agree, and it will be patched soon enough. IW probably won't patch this for a long time(as the Resurgence Pack update probably won't have a fix as the 360 doesn't have a fix) and it'll probably be around 1.12/1.13 before this little trick is gone.
To do:
Change Clantag in game to ZZZZ
You need to copy your Save Data to your USB Flash Device or SD Card
Find the file named GPAD0_MP(it may differ for other regions)
Open it in Hex Editor and locate ZZZZ
Change it to {--} or {2 characters} and save it
While you're at it, edit your MOTD(Optional)
Save the file
Copy Save Data back to PS3
Start up MW2 and hover over your callsign in a lobby/party
The only way to reedit clan tag is to delete the {'s(they count as Illegal Characters ingame)
Now watch, there'll probably be more you can do with GPAD files.

It's not just because the { is an illegal character. {} are used show buttons etc like in COD4 Clan Tags, and when you put ++ inbetween them on MW2 it means that it becomes unbound due to the fact ++ is not a bounable set of characters if that makes ,sense. So no ^NGU would just come up as ^NGU. I hate to promote my own thread but if you look here of of the characters mentioned are illegal but they show in game You must login or register to view this content.
