Yea, because we all know how long you've been on this site reflects your knowledge of console modding.


Actualy it does noober... Respect your members! I cant wait till i see your next question in here....
LOL, I've been modding consoles for five years now. I used to run a little business modding consoles and selling burned games. The only help I need on here is to sporadically check on how many retards are getting banned, or when a new wave is being introduced. I see 4th grade English class was a little too much for you, eh?


Righttttttt, everyone all of a sudden owns stores. Please dude, dont act up in here, your a noob and youve been acting like one lately, so all im saying is to respect the upper members in here mr business man.. ps. its hillarious how u researched my background to see what other retards have said about me, hence the 5th grade comment.
LMAO, I modded PS2's and Xbox's locally and sold PS2 and Xbox games online for two years. When I turned 18, I stopped doing it. I have no respect for you at all. I have no idea who you are, you try to act like because you post more you are better than everyone else, and to top it all off, your grammar usage screams 13 year old immature kid.
So you were performing highly illegal operations as a minor, good for you! Just because you modded a few PS2's for your teenage friends doesn't mean you are an xbox 360 expert.

Now, can we get back to the topic at hand?
Another haughty "high ranking" member of this site. I remember back when started modding I came to this site and the people here were more than generous in answering questions for "noobers". IDK if most of those members left or what, but this is just sad. I've also flashed a couple of 360's, BTW. Just for friends and family, but I guess because I don't post 50 times a day I am a Newbie.

Getting on topic, stay smart and you won't get banned, pretty simple. Everyone who says they never played an unverified or unstealthed game or played a game early is probably lying. If someone truly got banned and they went through every precaution, then maybe MS is finally starting to get a clue.
but I'm not about to chastise him for that as, or try to belittle him

This DIATRIBE in honor of me IS compromised of chasitzing and belittling me, didnt you notice that when you started writing this???

It certainly was, and intentionally so but not because I feel that I'm better than you for being a longer standing member of this forum that you are, or because I think that you are a noob. That's your style, not mine. It was simply an observatiopn of your character. Or didn't you understand that?

Anyway, I'll take my own advice and ignore you.

But thanks for the respect!
Wow, i dunno what i would do without my Halo for real! LOL... My bros console felt the first wave and it was during madden frenzy, it was bad on both of us... traumatizaing! LOL

If you go back and read what you just posted you will realize you just made an absolute idiot of yourself. Damn! Two dyslexics in a row, are you guys brothers or what? Creaky, you must be enjoying the fact that spelling check is not an option in here and you have the chance to witness these nitwits. I know these occurences piss you off but i have no choice. Believe me, i will soon be ready to cease fire. I usually try not to drag these on. Besides, this is the same way i lost three accounts with many helpful posts before but believe me, i learn from my mistakes.

Ouch.. you're calling me out on a couple of typo's. I'm hurt(sigh) That's a sure sign of someone who's run out of arguements.

As for the second part of the quote, you've lost your account 3 times previously? I can't say that I'm surprised. Your attitude in general towards other members stinks. Unlkess of course it's a moderator that you're trying to suck up to. And if that really is the case then clearly you do not learn from your past mistakes.

Did you know that that is one of the first signs of mental illness? The inability to learn from your past mistakes? I hate to be the one to break it to you.

You missed the point completely, and only reinforced exactly what I have been saying myself. That's exactly what I have been saying to goyankees with regards to his attitude towards new members.

I'm in a similar situation. Back before the first ban wave I had 2 360's. One RROD'd and I never bothered to send it in for repair because it had clearly been tampered with and has been in storage since then. The other was banned during the first wave and I continued to use it offline until recently.

A few weeks back I decided to dig out the RROD 360 and have a crack at fixing it which I was able to do, not knowing whether or not it would be banned as it died just before the first wave. Turned out it hadn't been banned and I'm still using it online now, but it freezes from time to time. Because of that, I've bought a new Elite which I will keep online until the next EU ban wave is over. I can't wait to find out if this old RROD machine will make it through the next batch of bans, but If not then I have my new elite to fall back on.

Does anyone know if these banwaves have hit Europe yet? Not one post on any website have said they have been banned in Europe (that I can find)

Seems very weird as the past 3 banwaves I've been in have had a worldwide ban?

Thanks

UK bans are happening right now. I just checked and I'm not banned (yet), but people from the UK on other sites are reporting that they've just been hit. Apparently, bans in Spain occurred on the 30th. Don't know any other info just yet.

There's been about 1 console ban wave per year up to now, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they'll carry on doing it like that in the future.

EDIT - Bans are also being reported in the Netherlands and further bans in the US are happening too.

I'm not normally one to complain about these kinds of things but my friends console just got banned today. No more borderlands for us.

I ripped/verified all of his games for him and flashed the console myself. His was a first revision lite-on drive with 1.6. Never played a game early, all of them checked through abgx, etc.

Mine isn't banned and we have both played the exact same things sharing discs sometimes.

Odd.

And in case anyone was wondering, he doesn't have any DVD+R DL's or a dual layer burner. So he couldn't have made his own.

i got banned today
i was playing halo odst, disconnected from live and when i tried to connect and got the ban console hammer
only the console got banned, i can still use my gamertag on windows live
have a lite-on with 1.51 firmare
bought the mappacks of codwaw because they were on sale last week
have a silver account because i recently got my xbox and had the 1month free but ended already

It isn't necessary to make pirated copies yourselves, I am even stating that most n00bs who play burned games do not even have a own PC with burner .. the fact that you use copies in the Xbox 360 violates the Code of Conduct and deprives the game developers their own hard earned money. basically if someone have modified their console to play 'back-ups' they are taking willingly the risk of to be banned by Microsoft ..
