The million dollar question is:

If we aren't already banned when we update to NXE, will they ban us if we start playing backups again? Or will they just leave us alone till the next wave?

I know people who have updated to NXE and are still playing backups with no problem so far...but if you ask me that is just asking to get banned later. Personally I'd rather wait for a new firmware to come out, just to play it safe.

I don´t know why you keep buying new 360 when you get banned...

They banned you, it´s time to go to competition...I used backups to see if the games were worth buying, if they were, I bought them and played online...now that M$ banned me, I won't buy any other game or acessories for my 360, instead, I'll buy a PS3, I'll play original games online with it and use 360 only to play backup games.

M$ won´t see any money from me ever;)

Ahhh; another "It's all MS's fault and not my own." post. You know what you were doing was wrong and did it anyway. Now you're ranting, telling us how to "show them" for banning people. Man up and take responsibility. You're no loss to MS. It sounds like they weren't making money from you to start with. And your actions to "show them"; go spend $460 instead of $260. Yep, that'll teach them to ban you.

Oh well, to each their own.

I think you should all do this, if people can´t play the games before buying them, what´s the purpose to have a console...to play demos that suck and buy extremely expensive games that suck even more??not me...I'm not rich to throw away money...M$ lost a gold member and a frequent buyer of it's games (GOW are my favourite). Now, I'lll return my recently bought GOW 2 to the store and sell all my originals and sony will see the colour of my money...

you seem to be missing the point that the PS3's online community and playability is absolute dog excretion compared to the 360. Plus it doesn't have Gears of war which is a really great online experience...if not thee greatest.

I think i'll wait a while before i decide to flash my new 360. Although i really want to play all the new backups lol especially MK vs DC

So grow up...and stop beeing a jackass...M$ won't give a you the job of ass kissing.

Spoken like a 12 year old who needs to throw profanity around to show their maturity. I'm sorry you, and many others, were banned. But, unlike the others, you feel the need to come here and bitch and moan and complain about how MS has wronged you. Sorry, but you won't get no sympathy with that attitude.

Of course you think it's stupid now that you got banned. But it wasn't stupid before when you were getting away with it.

Care to backup this statment with proof? I'm failing to spot my posts defending MS. If anything, you are the one who sounds like some sort of salesman for Sony, coming here trying to drum up business with your posts of how everyone should switch to the competition.

But yet, before you got banned, you gladly paid for LIVE and the 20 origianls you say you've purchased. And now, being wise, you'll go spend $400 for another console, which you didn't feel the need to purchase before you got banned. Is that really wise spending?

I really like this comment.

That's the best one. Their attitude? You sure didn't mind their "attitude" before you got caught.


The simple fact is if someone is going to come here and whine, then they're going to get called on it. Especially in a thread which has "no posts of "Oh POOR ME I'M BANNED", Stop it already, just the facts" in the title.
