people being banned left and right?

[silentpig]

I was checking my forum post in the xbox forums and when i decided to
see what every one else was saying i say this. I did not post it and
did not get banned so i do not know what exactly is going on

Okay everyone, here is my delima, I just got home from school and I
went to go get on my xbox to play Gears online with my friends and it
says i'm suspended for a week. I honesty didn't do anything wrong, I
haven't posted any bad words, or anything bad on the website and I
haven't glitched or anything to make me get suspended, so can someone
plz tell me why I am suspended for a week? if you could tell me that
would be great, thxs!

BEND OVER...feel microsoft penetrate u deep...feels good

I like many of you also recently received a lovely ban from
xbox...and like most of you it would appear that the reason for my ban
is being a loyal customer and nothing more.

From what i understand this ban is most likely due to my router and
a problem with my NAT settings...a problem that xbox seems to have
cracked down on today...without any notice, or anything...a complete
joke...no way to treat the people who are spending thousands of
dollars on your system.

I have been on xbox live for over a year now, and just renewed my
membership a week ago....and now bamm my live is gone and so is
yours....and perhaps my NAT setting was wrong, but that has not
stopped me from playing for the last year without absoultly no
reprocussions or problems...and then to not even offer me a warning
before u ban my console from live...what a joke

But dont worry for I HAVE THE SOLUTION...i got it from there 1800
number.

BUY A NEW CONSOLE...that is what the lady actually said...when i asked
her how i can get my live back, she told me to buy a new
console....what kinda douchebaggery is this.

So to those of you who have recently been banned, without warning, i
have some news....it actually says in the contract that there is no
way to fight this either, i believe the word they use is no
"recourse"...LOL ...so i say this to you my xbox brotheran...WE need
to endlessly call xbox....WE need to email them nonstop..WE must stand
up for our rights...WE need to fight...Now is the time for an
uprising....GIVE US OUR XBOX LIVE BACK...we meant to hurt no one by
using our faulty routers...and we will change...just give us our live
back.

or at least my money for my beautiful white paper weight and a handful
of shiny coasters...or at least that is all they are now

Well, people shouldn't be so naughty then and mod their 360's

Umm, I seriously doubt that a business would ban someone for their NAT
settings, I can see MS saying ,"Hey asshole, you don't don't know how to set
your NAT settings on your router, you're therefore declared an idiot and
permanently Xbox proof!", and it is pure bullshit. The only thing NAT
settings can do is possibly allow a half-assed/not allow a connection at
all, that needs to be remedied by changing some settings. The person in
question had a modded box, pure and simple.

Yeah, they'd probably be looking at a huge class-action suit,
regardless of the contract. Not something M$ would be looking to do
right before the holidays.

I figured any kind of firmware mod wasn't going to go unnoticed
forever. My old modded XBox had a physical switch that took the mod
100% offline when I wanted to go on Live.

She should have added "And don't mod this one and try to play pirated
games online, dumbass."

Yet another slimy tactic by Micro$$$$$oft to inflate their sales
numbers. Every time a console RRoDs or they ban a console for Xbox
Live for some unknown reason, that's another console in the sales
numbers. This is why you can't judge the success of a console
(especially the 360) by the sales figures alone. Sure, Xbox may have
shipped 10 million units, but how many are still working?

Microscum cheating again... who would have thought.

I know you're into nothing but flaming and trolling for the most part, but I
didn't think you were this daft, or you're falling into wishful thinking
that these were real MS tactics, and that wouldn't surprise me one iota that
you would think that.

Don't modify, and MS won't nullify.
