Heh, if MS can't get past LT they will use it to ban people. They do not care if they ban a few thousand legit customers, its all money game and they are in full control of any bad-rep media. We just need the scene to be on the cutting edge so fewer of us get caught out by these brutal strategies MS is employing as of late to deter a minority.

he is saying that you may be flagged from previous offenses (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Try putting your DVD drive back to stock and attempt to use xbox live with a original online and then see. I also think it may be a good idea to format your  storage device before just in-case your profile has stored something while you been playing offline, it may have you flagged OFFLINE and may upload this ban to MS once you go online and ignore the fact you have all stock firmware etc...


Hey Prime....I'm curently safe per the 'Request repair' site. Was reading your post and wanted to be as safe as possible before trying Live again...The 'Format your storage device' comment you made is where I have a question. If I format, I'm going to lose all the contents, right? I have lots of Gamesaves and DLC for RockBand. Can I format without losing everything?

That is true, however...if that day comes, would you prefer to be in the group whose vulnerability makes news, or in the group that says "big deal, doesn't affect me"?

On the flip side, if they intended to use it, doesn't it seem like Microsoft would have done so by now?  Perhaps as drives age and lasers deteriorate, it's not reliable enough to be usable for banning?

I like to be informed.  Blanket statements like SSv1 will get you banned, but SSv2 won't is complete BS.  A plausible scenario where SSv2 would be needed is if the CR table has an expected value of say 90 degrees, but the actual sectors are 180 degrees apart.  Would Microsoft have done so by now?  Not necessarily since it creates other headaches.

This "stick it to the man" mentality is so lame.  The scene is about the thrill of the hack, keeping 1 step ahead and keeping it fun.  If Microsoft takes out another million hacked 360s, good for them... live with it and rejoice when the next work around is found.

webhed I only offered it as a suggestion if you been playing offline with a profile allot. Its possible no data is stored? but who knows.. I just feel its best to be safe then sorry., Oh and yes you loose everything... Anyway try to play online IF LT comes out with all your offline data and let people know if you get banned somehow (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Also I do not like MS, and I will stick it to them as much as I like. There  a extremely antitrust based company and don't deserve anyone's money but that's my opinion, I'm against most mega corps, that's just me sorry to offend. Shrug...

Prime I dont know why you say you hate them. You own a 360.Odds are you had an Xbox1.You probably use Windows and maybe even Internet Explorer.What you hate them because they ban you for likely illegally owning games that without the modded firmware or modchips would net them millions more worldwide?
Hell someone has to have money to make the games you play.I dont blame them at all for banning us. Im sure the money you have saved in games is far more than what it would cost you to buy another 360.Only dumbasses blame MS for banning us for illegally costing them money.Thats like stealing a car and then hating the person that owned it because they pressed charges on you.Banning is minor.Just be thankful they dont want to spend loads of money trying to prosecute people like the Napster incidents.

Are there any mega companies that do everything legit? Probably not but without them and mass production the economy would constantly be in turmoil with us being in the technology era.
I myself living in the US am glad that an American technology company is so successful. Most of the other successful tech mega corps come from Japan. Hell where do Sony and Nintendo come from? Japan.
Hell I wish Ford and GM and other American car companies made better vehicles than Japan but they dont. So I will buy a Toyota or Honda if i want depenability or quality.

If you dont live in the US or have anti American sentiment then I guess I can understand.
I will root on American companies but in the end I will buy the best quality and reliable product I can get.

 I applaud MS for staying on top of there field.Mega company or not it is nice to see an American tech company that is not dedicated to war machines succeed and stay on top.

Don't get too excited yet, this is only phase 10 of the testing stages. What they didn't tell you is that there are still 14 more, post-completion, testing phases to complete before it's actually released.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
I hate that it has to be tested... but if its not then we are all screwed when another million consoles are flashed with a faulty firmware. Oh well I'm probably already flagged even though I haven't been on live since two days after the jtag killing update.... why couldn't my xbox get the rrod sooner??????? WHY?

Well indeed, no harm in keeping your box offline for the time being though, just in case you haven't been flagged yet.


Exactly, he was quick to jump to conclusions . My Xbox was only 2 weeks old before the banwave started and I had only played 2 games on it, Borderlands (backup) and Forza 3 (retail), so I decided my chances of having been flagged previously were exceptionally low - I was just doing damage control.

So another 14 testing runs to go, darn. I would like to know if this is coming for samsung/benq/lite-on drives or just lite-on alone.


ROBJETS LOL, ok.

No flagging info gets saved to the hard drive.
DO NOT FORMAT
