You had a vision of the 'future', or you are secretly working for M$.
All the devkits from M$ for the next XBOX (aka) Xbox Loop, Xbox Fusion, Xbox n3xt, or just plain Xbox, have a ZEBRA pattern on their case and controller.

you can figure out how many posts someone really has by looking in their profile and seeing where they are most active, then divide the number of posts by the percentage
in chad000's case its 34/.27 = 126 posts

It actually came from the original tony hawks pro skater. I wanted to play the game and not have to put my name in, so I mashed a bunch of buttons and yaazz was created.
Yaazz is a good thing. Without it everyone would still be in families of 12 churning butter and combing amish beards.

1. X-S trading/signature cards.
2. Team Xecuter give away/picture contest. I believe it was something to do with take a picture of yourself with their logo/XS logo near a M$ building/sign.
3. Easybuy2000 - I still never got my refund for my defective matrix w/ pogo pins.
4. Breaking the 137gig limit.
5. X-S t-shirt. I still have mine (1st gen) and wear it proudly!
6. Lik-sang getting shut down.
7. All the rumors about xbox360
8. Xbox360 MT DEW Winners thread (I still hate you guys)
9. EvolutionX - editing that ini
10. XBMC - best media player ever!
11. the usual places - trying to tell newbies about that special place.

And the place I bought an 80gb drive for my old xbox back in 2004 I got a job at (I asked if there any jobs available while I was buying the drive) and ended up working there for 5 years before going off to uni. Consequently after buying that drive, I learnt all about formatting via FTP via the tutorials on here.
The xbox and these forums, as well as the info the people of X-S have provided over the years will always remembered fondly. Good times (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

sooo modded the old one to put in a new hdd, got a x2.0 lite+, spent forever trying to get that to work.. then i remember the night i was messing, turned it on and saw the cromwell bios, about shit my pants ha. got it reflashed, used slayers to set it up, many times were spent running that and playing nes games. my first thing i ever painted, first thing i put leds in.. learned alot from it. now i can solder good, wiring leds doesnt scare me, i can do good paint jobs with rattle cans...

I've had a lot of good times on this forum - and really, xbox modding was one of the main reasons I ended up getting into electrical engineering (2nd year now, wooo!), because I enjoyed working with electronics so much. I enjoy modding just as much as I did 6 years ago (though I didnt have an account on these forums back then, I only ever read the main X-s page).

I also remember a lot of the old mods and how cool they were on one hand, but incredibly strict on the other. You played by the rules and you were good, you didn't and they let you know. Braham2 used to be my personal favorite, Shanafan was awful cocky, but he got the job done.
I have always wondered why after all this time X-S doesn't purge all the banned accounts or unban them like was done at some other sites after a period of time.
I'll take my chances saying this but I incurred the wrath of HSD, we had gone back and forth about a few things and I made a couple open comments about my disappointment with the direction the site was taking, especially at the first advances in X360 modding. I stand by my feelings then and I still stand by them now. We went from a site that was 100% don't discuss piracy, etc to new developments about how people could play their copied games and discussions about where to get games to copy. etc. I said I wasn't impressed with C4E's work because it hadn't gotten to the root of what I felt X-S really wanted, which was an open system ala the original Xbox. (We finally have that now which is why I'm back, I'm curious if it's time to hang up my original Xbox and move forward). 100% confident I was banned for this. Considering this took place probably 4 or 5 years ago I like to think I'm okay to share this. If I wake up banned again, I guess I know why.
It's sad to see the news page updated so infrequently now, heck, the forum still doesn't allow searching. If I was new looking for something, I'd skip this site entirely just for the lack of knowing what useful information is out there and new information isn't updated.
Closing thoughts here, I don't believe X-S is any sort of moneymaker, it's big, time consuming, and falling behind. I would really like for it to be passed onto people with the time and effort to maintain and bring the site back up to its old glory. I feel like if that doesn't happen in another few years there won't be an X-S.

Other than that, the king is back and I'll be looking around the forums more over the next few days. Please be patient with me as I reacquaint myself with XS. I have been gone a long time.
