Meshuggah Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 (edited) as of 11:30 PM central time, most people in the xbox.com official forums are now saying that they are back online. I am included :D Thank you microsoft. Giga/DL, please close this thread. I've worried too many people tonight.

russ0943 Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 I'm contacting some lawayers and going to try to sue Microsoft. ha, riiiight. That does suck though. Did u get the console on ebay or in a store somewhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yusuf M. Veteran Posted November 11, 2006 Veteran Share Posted November 11, 2006 Ouch. Maybe you can get a replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meshuggah Posted November 11, 2006 Author Share Posted November 11, 2006 I agreed to the terms, and have followed the terms to the teeth and bone. I have NOT done anything to warrant this ban. they said i cant get a replacement because its modded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhangm Supervisor Posted November 11, 2006 Supervisor Share Posted November 11, 2006 Isn't there some part about not reverse-engineering or modifying the console? Surely it was mentioned somewhere, or did you think this didn't apply to you? *Edit: Is your console modded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magik Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Uh... good luck with the lawsuit... it won't get you anywhere. Dude, the only thing you can do if you want to really get this resolved is to honestly talk to them and see if you can send it to them for their review to confirm whether or not you actually modded it or not. If they have your banned Xbox 360 and can evaluate it themselves and verifiy that it wasn't modified, then they should be able to rectify it and get everything back on track for you.

flyakite Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Wait, do you or do you not have a modified 360? It says that's why you were banned (could have been a mistake if not), but you didn't say if you actually did. And if you DO have a modified 360, where have you been? This has been the same policy with the original Xbox. It's the same with cars that have aftermarket chips in them: dealers will not service the car if it has been tampered with. Or, more related, it's the same with system makers or some graphic card makers that state if you overclock the system you will void the warranty.

Rodrigo Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 (edited) I think the pure mod to your 360 makes you worth of a ban, right? :/ EDIT: I get it now, they think you modded your console which in this case you didn't. Well, keep talking to support. :) And tell them about the extended warranty and agree with them to send your console so they can check it out.

Meshuggah Posted November 11, 2006 Author Share Posted November 11, 2006 why would i mod my console? i spent money on the extended warranty, want me to take pics of my unmodded 360 and all the games i own? id be glad to. I havent touched the dan 360....****, i havent even put a faceplate or even taken the faceplate off... I'm so ****ing ****ed off right now. I've spent almost 2,000 dollars on this system, and for NOTHING now. To you people think that I've actually modded it....go look at my previous posts...I dont have it modded, and you shoud have realized that.

factoid Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 If this isn't resolved, I'm contacting some lawayers and going to try to sue Microsoft. umm. dont even go there. Microsoft has armies of lawyers, and if you did try to sue them, they would ensure that you would not see the inside of a court room for a very long time. It would also cost you more to sue them than what you could claim as damages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magik Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Just calm down and talk to them. Ask to see if you can send it in and have them review it to see if it was infact modded or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkness Muta Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Just curious why you have a modified 360? There seems to be little reason unless you are playing pirated games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yusuf M. Veteran Posted November 11, 2006 Veteran Share Posted November 11, 2006 FFS, It's NOT MODDED :angry: You said you were banned for having a modified 360.

Meshuggah Posted November 11, 2006 Author Share Posted November 11, 2006 I've spent over 2 grand on my 360. For all of this money to be worthless is the reason why I'm so ****ed....and yes. I'm on hold andh ave been for the past hour trying to resolve this. Doesn't seem like it's going to be resolved anytime soon though. I mean it's retarded that I'm going to have to probably send in my 360, just so they can see it's legit...what if i get banned again? I just don't understand what I did. I've been such a loyal customer. Section 31: guess you didnt notice the "modified" on the sub-topic of the thread? :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5Horizons Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 I'm pretty sure when he says "legit 360 owners" and puts "modified" in quotes, it means that his xbox isn't modded :rolleyes:. That really sucks man, they owe you a brand new 360 if they can't remotely re-activate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryne Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Yup, heard about this. This happened to two other forums goers at a forum I frequent. You are not alone. As for me, I just won't use Live for a while. I don't want to lose out because MS decides my 360 isn't legit. I would hate that, must be very frustrating and annoying. And, as said, his 360 isn't modded :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dotdot Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Ok where it says i was banned from xbox live for haveing a modified 360 is that the reason right there? Or am I reading it wrong?Do you have a modified 360? If yes then thats why your probs banned if not then deary me that sucks. Oh and whilst we realise your annoyed name calling and shouting wont win you anyones favour Soz just read its not modded (3am here) well if you get on the blower and contact MS they,ll fix it. its probs a bug in your fw or something odd like that. Plus if your 360`s llegit MS will probs fix this and Id certainly look at asking for some free points or sumthin for the **** up on there end.
