So, if you are sure you never went on Live with your modchip, what stops you from getting banned again?

I have been on Xbox Live since it came out and I have always had a mod chip and I am yet to be banned, EVER

I think after reading all this that if you have been banned once then they are after you regardless of what measures you do.

I can vision it now if M$ are reading this now I bet they are laughing at us cus our theorys might be wrong.  With M$ who knows.

I just got banned.  Funny how it comes a day before Halo 2 comes out.  I haven't turned my modchip on since I started using live for 2 months now.  So the modchip is definately off.

Yet I am banned.

datapusher - have you ever been banned before?  Or is this your first time being banned.

OK, first-time bans without the modchip on is a new phenomenon that hasn't been talked about a lot.  For those of you who recently got banned the first time...

- Was XBL auto sign-in enabled from the dashboard?
- Was there anytime your chip was on and your box connected to the internet, regardless of being on XBL or not?
- Are you sure there's nobody else using your Xbox?
- Is your XBL gamertag stored on your HD, or on a memory card?
- Do you have any modified files gamesaves (like for PGR2) that you use while on XBL?
- Did XBL send you a mail or give you any more info about why you were banned?

Set to not auto sign on

- Was there anytime your chip was on and your box connected to the internet, regardless of being on XBL or not?

Never.  Since the first day I started using live 2 months ago I have yet to turn the chip on.

- Are you sure there's nobody else using your Xbox?

Yes

- Is your XBL gamertag stored on your HD, or on a memory card?

Whatever the default is.  I assume hard drive since I don't have a memeory card.

- Do you have any modified files gamesaves (like for PGR2) that you use while on XBL?

If you mean ones that were downloaded from the net?  No.  Only the games that I play have gamesaves on them.  And those were generated from the games themselves.

- Did XBL send you a mail or give you any more info about why you were banned?

Nopers.

You know they read this board.  it goes without saying.  I am guessing that they are banning people with gamertags listed in their sigs.

Actually, my unmodded box is working fine with my same Live account, so I doubt they're banning gamertags.
