ok so i just bought modern warfare 2 and also made a backup of it. the backup isnt online safe so if i install the store bought copy to the hard drive but boot the game with the backup in the dvd drive would that be online safe? cuz its just playing the install from the purchased copy right? or does it still read all the unsafe crap from the backup? i only ask cuz im giving my store bought copy to my bro who doesnt have a modded 360. sorry if this sounds confusing but it seems like a cool little loop hole

Only microsoft can answer this as only then know the criteria on the ban flags, doubt they will post the answer either.

Thing is, I know one of my xboxs should be banned, I played lots of games early, played bad / modified rips on Hitachi 1.51, its still able to connect. I have another than had 1.6, always played decent rips and that got banned.

I don't think they banned all the ones that were flagged just to keep us guessing how they do it!
