On a serious side, you seem like a somewhat knowledgeable guy with lots of info to share, why don't you just tone it down a notch and contribute to this forum like a normal person. We get your point that you're anti-piracy. Some people give a shit, some don't. You're not gonna win any more people over by acting like an almighty know-it-all. You do what you feel is justified, and we'll do what we think is justified. | see the problem with him isn't that he's anti piracy, it's that he's a hypocrite. there is no gray area of piracy underscore, you either did it or you didn't do it. Just cause you try to justify why you did it, doesn't make it any better than those who download their movies, games or music

I don't think you will get banned simply for being modded, as Microsoft can't detect that (yet). It's if you play a backed up or whatnot game that you run the risk, playing a game before release is bad, and playing it before release *while connected to the internet* is just silly. Which when you think about it is fairly nice, if they wanted to they could probably brick your console. I'm kind of wondering why people aren't working on a way to make the 360 connect to their own servers (though really only the drive is hacked). Now I'm just thinking out loud.
Though thinking about it, legally they probably can't do that because it is YOUR console. They can just deny your service to THEIR servers.
@Cmann - don't think you were the first ones to mock the rims. I know they're cheap, I know they're shit, but they came with the car. I could've gotten new, slightly better rims and shit tires or kept these rims and got kickass tires. needless to say I got the tires.
I don't steal movies or music. I do d/l stuff like WRC that I simply can't get here, and since I still see all the sponsor ads and such that's kinda grey area. Anyways.
As far as bans go, I wouldn't be surprised that a publicly upped security checker got bypassed my MS. Either you'll want to use a better, more private one if you can, or go find a RRoD to fix or a cheap used Arcade to mod/use online if you got TEH BANT STICK.
If you run 2 consoles I would also not suggest using your main harddrive/mem card on the modded one, as who knows what Microsoft might stick in there to keep track of what you play, should you play a game ahead of release.
That is my bit of helpfulness, I also suggest only pirating games to try them out/play before release and if a game actually is good, please support the developers and buy it. Similar deal with movies that are out of theatres but not on DVD yet. That is all.

So MS isn't banning people based on their modded firmware but rather on the consoles running pirated games on XBL?

well the firmware isn't modded, that hasn't been done yet, it's just the drive that has been modified to allow burned games to be played.

I'm pretty sure sooner or later everyone will get fucked.

But it would be fine to have one modded console to go on live as long as the games you play are legit right?

MS either have a way to detect mods, or random check on the disc while u are on live.
but i'm sure you wont be banned if they did a random check and detects that you have a legit disc in the drive.

^ exactly, Microsoft might have made a way to check if your drive is checking for the security shenanigans or something. Realistically, it's only a matter of time before they catch on to whatever the latest mod is and you get banned. The best way to not get banned is to not play online at all on a modded console. But that's effectively the same as being banned anyways. Quote:

I'm pretty sure sooner or later everyone will get fucked. | Account maybe not, I'm not sure if Microsoft bans those at the same time as the console. I wouldn't trust the harddrive either myself, if people playing legit games got banned and noone knows how Microsoft knows.

I just think its pretty hilarious how there are people online complaining and saying that they played all their games offline 
Like hello?? Did you not think your console has a way of logging all the info of what you played and when you played it?  | |

^ and that's why I don't think people who don't understand the technology should be running around playing with modded consoles...

I got banned also. But I don't play online anyways.
Still shitty though. Might fix the RROD xbox I have sitting here and keep that as the online one if I decide to play online one day.

So what's the ban rate for people running modded here? 100%?
How did you get banned if you don't play online? I'm assuming you went to go get a demo or something?

banned here as well. microsoft could be running some tests with their updates, checking for yes/no signals or something, who knows.
some guy was saying he was banned, got another console, flashed it, then played legit halo 3 and got banned.

why on earth would he do that? it's pretty obvious now that they can detect the mod. and he already had a modded, banned console.

I did a little more research and found out that if you've been banned you can't save games on the hdd. I've tried and can confirm it. Shitty thing is I just bought a 120GB HDD which hasn't even arrived yet.
