Lucky or is there a reason?

Post by cainhunpi »

Hey guys, I flashed my friend's xbox 4 weeks ago. He plays online every day, and I am pretty sure he downloads games

He did not get banned. and he was playing online every single day.

So yesterday, I said. F*** it. Turned my xbox on live( it had been off live since august), 1 hour later. BAN!

I have a Lite-on 7series on 1.6 firmware

and He has a Hitachi drive on 1.51. We were both playing MW2

is he just lucky? or is there a reason why he didn't get banned?

I flashed it myself and I didn't do anything different.

@edit My MW2 was original and he's was a backup

Luck.

I restored a console of mine, and one of a friend of mine, both benq's both flashed by me, we were both playing retail copys of MW 2 online, and I was banned, he was not banned for another 3 days... My console also hadn't been used in about a month prior where as his was used like every day.

It's starting to look like M$ is just banning at random from a list of known modded consoles. They are probably just saving your friend for later.
But there's no sense crying over every mistake,
you just keep on trying 'till you run out of cake.

I think you've got it. They knew for a long time and even though whatever they are seeing, even if it's legit... BAN mutha f***ka!
