Signed up to try and clarify some things .
First of all i hope this is right thread because there are so many out there at the mo.Yes i've been banned and i'm not sour about it i knew the risks,have liteon flash with 1.6 firmware and hadn't got around to playing any backups ;). If people do a bit of hunting round on the forums you'll find a few more with same instanece (they had different firmware but had not played any un oringinal games) .I'm sorry for bad grammer i speak english better than i can write.

Quote:
As you may have read online, we?ve been actively banning consoles from Xbox LIVE that have been modified to play pirated games. Our commitment to combat piracy and support safer and more secure gameplay for the more than 20 million members of our Xbox LIVE community remains a top priority. All consumers should know that piracy is illegal, and that modifying their Xbox 360 console to play pirated discs, violates the Xbox LIVE terms of use, will void their warranty and result in a ban from Xbox LIVE. The health of the video game business depends on customers paying for the genuine products and services they receive from manufacturers, retailers, and the third parties that support them. This would also be a good time to remind you that the warranty on an Xbox 360 console is not transferrable and if you purchase a used console that has been previously banned, you will not be able to connect to Xbox LIVE.

For real. I payed a lot for my subscriptions. Oh well. At least it was a fun ride!
Part of the thousands banned on XBL from Fall 2009 Ban Wave. Well, we took the risk and we had to pay!

Well, it was bound to happen eventually.
I've been banned.
Recently played games include GTAIV episodes and Dragon Age.
At least it happened a few weeks before my Live subscription got renewed. :\

i just thought of something, since the original games have the security info around that ring, and burnt have it on a layer. so couldnt xbox tell by the drive laser postion, like if its not in the spot same spot as the original.
maybe impossible but just a thought

Finally BANNED. Lock in today and the console was banned.
Ixtreme benq 1.6
Play both legit and backups never early copies during the last 8 months. All games are ABGX verified. Probably got flagged last year.
Oh well, Now I have to change my pre-ordered Modern Warfare 2 from Xbox360 to the PS3 version.

I'm going to get a new console, mod that and use nothing but games that are verified and stealthed. No slip-ups. If I get banned on that, then I am done with the flashing.

Did you use the 360 as the power source during the flash?

And you never used a single burned disc in it? Not even to test it, eh? How did you make sure you even flashed it correctly?
$38 on new discs -- Check
$15 on burn after burn that showed as a DVD -- Check
$11 on new laser -- Check
$28 on new multimeter -- Check

It seems like we are all screwed now because this ban wave is bigger than last year. Microsoft can now detect firmware.. i knew this day would be coming.

If that is true then theres nothing stopping microsoft from banning everyone with a modded box. If they had the capibuilty to read firmware they would ban everyone in one fail swoop, to send a message about pirating and what not.

Think about how many people have modded boxes. Just because they haven't banned everyone all at once doesn't meant they cannot detect the hacked firmware.

I think some people at xbox-scene.com have found something :O So what happened was that a guy who got banned rechecked his all of his game iso files. They were all verified successfully. But when he ran them through abgx when they were on the disk(after they were burned) 3/4 of them failed verification. Another banned guy tried this and it was true for him. I urge everyone to recheck all of your games through abgx. Dont run your iso's put your actual disk in the tray than scan.And i have not been banned yet and pray to god i dont.
