Marriage Theory 101
« Reply #390 on: November 24, 2005, 07:45:00 PM »

This is probably pointless because you all know what happens already, but since there's been a bit of questioning about bans since the 360, here's my recent experience.

I popped a 200 gig into my xbox about a week ago with an x3 and I also flashed what I thought was a new eeprom.  One or the other had already been on live, and I got banned yesterday.  I flashed another new eeprom and popped in a brand new 40 gig HD, and I used account recovery and I'm back on.

Why?  Because I used a 40 gig and not a stock?

well your GT was flagged when you got banned, flagged GTs get re-banned if they are used on anything other than stock HDs

Yeah, I actually tried to edit, but the server lagged out.  What I meant was that some people thought that since the 360 came out, XBL was getting lax on the bans.  

Hope I don't get banned  sad.gif

Oh, one more quick question.  I play on Live with a bunch of friends at this guy's house sometimes; is it safe for me to use my banned GT on his xbox along with their 3 other nonbanned GT's?  His box is totally stock.  I don't want my friends banned.

as long as hes using a stock HD you GT will be fine

i dont think anyone with half a brain ever thought MS would hold off on bans with 360 released, what logical reason would they have to do that? it was just wishful thinking from people who regretted getting banned stupidly

You're entirely correct.  The posts I saw were basically wishful thinking, but they had some random evidence at the time to back up their thoughts, I don't remember exactly what.  Anyways, thanks for the help!

Can't I just get a stock HD and eeprom and try again?  I was using a 40 gig.  No new GT should be necessary right?

well if it a drive out of a non-banned xbox, and a virgin eeprom, then you will be right to go with no new GT needed

Yeah, sorry, that's what I meant.  I was a little unclear.  Excellent; I've got a non-live using buddy that upgraded his HD and has no use for his stock HD or eeprom.

Thanks ferrari.

Installed the new eeprom + HD a couple days ago, and still unbanned.  Thanks to lordvader and all you guys who are working on the marriage theory.
