QUOTE(Promage420 @ Oct 26 2005, 11:32 PM)
I'm going to assume that I'm banned (see above post).. if I bought a new Xbox to use until the 360 comes out, would I be able to use the account recovery on the new xbox to get my accounts transferred over?

Your gamertag will be flagged though so make sure you never put a modified HD in it unless you purchase a new gamertag to use on it.

Still not banned BTW.

MS themselves seem to be having problems with their own updates. I would either call them or wait until the problems are sorted out.

I have been on since live came back up, as well as my 3 friends with modded xbox, and none of us have been banned at all.  We all have files on C: E: F: and G: so i really doubt they are scanning hard drives.  I have never been banned before and i modded mine and 2 of my friends xbox's before they even touched live.  My other friend i had to get a new eeprom from him but he has never been banned.  Dunno why you guys are getting banned but that is 4 people that i know including me that play on live all the time and we have yet to be banned.

Dont quite understand this. I'm not banned - it is now kinda obvious there are no 'new checks' going on - it's just peoples minds being scared of the supposedly 'new checks'.

Im not experiecing any 'limited' or broken experience on xbox live but if you do it may still be true that MS are having problems. Call them.

If you get banned now it is most likely its just because you didnt comply to the same old marriage theory.

What the hell ? I leave for a few weeks and when I'm back I found this topic!

I was informed of the xbox live outage through e-mail, but I haven't been able to play on Live for something close to a month.

I'll log into Live tonight, and see what is up.

Is it an update for your xbox, or just for xbox live servers ?
What I mean is, is this update, supposed to add files on your xbox HDD ?

I'll log in tonight, and back again tomorrow morning. I'll be back with any results.


Greetings to all. It's good to be back fellows.

Edit: when I said : "I was informed of the xbox live outage through e-mail, but I haven't been able to play on Live for something close to a month." I meant that I haven't been able to get near my xbox for that period of time since I've been really busy with work.

all they did was update xbox live to support the xbox 360.  Nothing more, nothing less.  I dont see how people are getting banned because like i said, i have my xbox modded with a x3 and a 200gb hard drive, my friends all have x2.6's with 120gb hdds and NONE of use have been banned from xbox since the downtime and we play halo 2 on xbl almost every night together.

I see. I also thought the update was only for xbox live servers, but I figured I'd ask since I haven't been able to get around my box in a while.

I just connected this morning again, after a few matches of GR2 last night, and everything worked normally.

And the people that have gotten banned through these past few days, might have gotten banned through regular methods, but it's just coincidental that happen after the so called update.

So far, so good.

Good luck guys.
