It would still be nice to hav the article posted for those who can not access Xbox-Scene like myself. Had a falling out with a mod there and if you question them in the slightest they just ban you rather then trying to settle the problem.

He's talking about this

Microsoft Unbanning Wrongfully Banned 360s? *update*
>> From zdnet.com:
[QUOTE]
The other day I reported that I was getting emails in from disgruntled Xbox Live users who had been banned by Microsoft for allegedly connecting to the online service using modded consoles even though the consoles were totally unmodified. Today I'm hearing that some of those affected are finally getting somewhere with tech support.

Initially, Microsoft's response had been that the process used to identify modded consoles (a process that would allow the console to play backed up game) was 100% accurate and that there was nothing that Microsoft or users could do other than buy a new console. At the time Microsoft wouldn't even take the consoles in to be checked or repair. Now is seems that things have changed. I'm still waiting for official word from Microsoft but according to several affected gamers that I have spoken to, Microsoft is now backing down from the initial stance and some consoles are being unbanned and others taken in for repair.
[/QUOTE]

*update*
Looks like microsoft can officially *unban* a console!

yeah i guess.

i suppose if i dont try theres no reaosn why i shouldtn be banned because if im not going to try it wouldnt make a differecne whether i was or wasnt.

i think il jsut play on line anyway wioth backups and if i get banned...i get banned. not the end of the world really.

My xbox 360 was flashed with ixtreme firmware 1.2 and I was banned while playing an original Madden 08. So Yes. If your console is modded you can be banned while playing original games. I sold it and now I'm legit. No worrys now. Just buying less games.

lovefilm the rental site

Well ill just rent all the Ps3 games i havent played yet and play backups on live, i dont really care anymore as i wont pay for live when my trial expires anyway, i play online on the Ps3, so just play the sh*t out of your backups on live until you get banned.

But be honest, have you ever ever played any backups while SIGNED IN to Live or any backups when the network cable is plugged in?

@Newbie234- have you ever played any downloaded games offline or do you backup all your originals
