What kind of stupid ass question is this. of course no one wants to be banned. it goes without saying.

Some points:

1) copying  a save game is not cheating.

patching the .xbe so you have infinite lives, invulnerability, whatever, is cheating

And there's already such a pach about for halo, which makes xbconnect even lamer.

2) You cant sue, even in australia.  Frankly, it's their service, and have the right to deny anyone they want.

Though, I've been hearing they're banning MAC addresses - which is just fucked.  It's not like you have to replace the xbox, but your cablemodem as well?  

I think the policy, and the service, suck.  But it's theirs, they have the right to suck all they want.

AFAIK, there are no such restrictions on the PS2.  MSFT is in no position to boss around the console market.

3) If they ban a box, they need to stop billing you immediately. (when the monthly debits kick in, of course - the ride is free for 12 months, then watch 50$ a month getting tacked onto mommas CC)

4) We all knew this would happen for at least a year.  If you knew XBL wouldnt work, and modded anyways, you made your own bed, frankly.


Personally I have 2 xboxes, one modded, one not.  I had planned on leaving the unmodded one for XBL and originals and whatnot.  But now I worry about getting XBL, and someone accidentally taking my modded box online.  If they banned the modded box - big deal.  If they banned my cablemodems MAC addy, that'd suck, since I own the modem.

I guess my money will go to the BBA for PS2.  Twisted Metal Black will be fun online.

Im not sure about mac address banning, but it would be the MAC address of the built-in NIC not the MAC address of your cable modem. Thats used for authentication with your ISP, and is not what MS is looking at.

                                    Well then shut the fuck up then. If you didn't like the question, why reply with a smart ass response, and yeah you are a noob thinking you're so hotshot. You're nothing more than a troll, go back to the cave and shut up!!!!

sorry but trithe is right
you should read the other posts before making yourself feel special, youre acting like a lil kid, this is a forum, expect to get flamed, live with it and calm your nipples

[trithe]

whos got my bizzack?

[Metroid-X]

Fuck all of you then. I was just asking if anyone else besides me felt the permanent ban was too much since I have read other posts of people who say people getting banned deserved it. Obviously not everyone mods the xbox to play pirated copies and is why I was asking the question. But another thing I realized is how many assholes are here talking shit flaming for no reason, only because the question was not helping you!! Fuck you all very much bitches!!!! I once thought this forum was good, but now I know xboxhacker.net really is the best xbox site!!! This one can burn along with you satan00 and your geek boyfriends!!!  EAT COCK AND CHOKE FAGS!!!!!

[forcelite]

metroid you are doing most of the flaming here
also I have seen so many damn posts about this, why couldnt you talk in one of those instead of putting yourself is such a tempting place to be flamed.
