Banned - Xbox Live Silver
« on: December 29, 2007, 02:08:00 PM »

Just wanted to share this, my brother has only beein using Xbox Live Silver since he bought his Xbox.
He mainly uses his 360 as a media extender.
It was firmware modded using an older firmware (pre Ixtreme 1.2 Hitachi 47)
And every now and then he would play a backup while logged into live (silver).

Today he tried to perform the DIVX dash update and has been banned.
Z: 8015 - 190D

So M$ really aren't messing around. They are hitting the Silver live accounts too!

They don't hit 'accounts' they hit the consoles, connect to live with a bad disc and play with an account that is attached to the live server = banned, he should have seen this coming

That is the point your missing...

He DID play online.

If you are connected to the Live network while a backup disc is in the system.  The system can query the disc and you can get banned.  He DID play a backup online, just in single player mode.  He never played against other people.

Havok you are correct, My brother did play backups WHILE online, but did not play with anyone else online as he's only ever had a silver account.
I think Gat is trying to say that he never played while online but still got banned. (At least that's what it sounds like he's saying)

Havok,
Your signature is scaring me. I am using some old ass firmware and thought I would be good as long as I didn't play back ups or any games online.

Damn. I hate taking it apart!
