I have not logged onto XBL since Crackdown beta (download it all Thursday morning till like 4:00 EST). I found out about MS banning consoles that Friday morning [without connecting to Live]. Since 5/18 morning, I have not logged into Live.
I'll go on Live soon just to find out, but first can anyone see their if they are ban from viewing their friends list on Xbox.com (those who's ban already)?

im just wonderin is it my account thats been banned or my actual 360?or both?i can still log on to www.xbox.com. im thinkin about buying another console and using that on live and not flashing it with the same gamertag cos i payed for a year.i have noticed that when i run the connection test i click on 'more info' on the right hand side of the bit that says 'NAT' and it says that the console has been banned it does'nt mention the account.has anybody tried using the same gamertag on a different console?

They ban the console, not the gamertag. And everyone else with a modded drive, your time IS coming. Trust me.

Good theory, but I modded my brother's 360 the minute he got it. He's only played me on LIVE (FNR3) and today, he was banned. MS28 with xtreme 5.2a

I got a ms28 5.3a flashed after the spring update and I am NOT banned. I have not played the Halo beta but I have downloaded stuff from the marketplace.
I have also played a multiplayer game of Call of Duty 2(retail game disc) and MiniGolf and im still NOT banned.
I play backups only offline.
Hope that helps

it seems that 5.3 is not being banned. but it will have its time like all of us people with 5.2 no doubt it wont be a long time until microsoft takes action!then you too will be made to buy a new console for live just like me.

Y is everyone buying another console!!!! WTH microsoft is now gotten every modded person to get a second console! imagine how much money they are making off us!! thats like double the loss they get from pirated games!!!! WOW they are smart!
better save up and you might as well get a ps3 which has free online. i would hate to buy the same console twice even if its live banned!
w/e its ur decision!

As much as i didn't wanna buy another console, i looked at it this way:
In the last 6 months, i've:
Spent £320 on a modded Premium Console
Spent £30 on Live Gold
Spent Maybe £25ish on MS points
Saved £2000+ on games..
Now i found boots.com are doing cores for £150, which is pretty damned good, and i still have my current one for backups/offline stuff.
Forza 2 is the next big game for me, playing it offline only would be a total cop out, no fun and missing all the integrals of the game, and besides, those people that bought the playseat/wheel (Happy with my pad for now!) Spent in excess of ~£220 on them...
In the end, its all good and its only cost 7.5% of what i've saved from burnt games!
