Banned From XBOX Live.... Don't Worry, It's Only Till The Year 9999

September 06, 2007 in Other comments 22

Getting Banned these days is becoming a bragging right, but I don't think you'd be doing much bragging over the loss of your XBOX Live Account, just complaining... then again the reason for being banned is very much justified.

A Xbox Live member known as Scar somehow managed to get himself an illegal copy of the "Halo 3 Epsilon Beta" (he somehow managed to get it from a Microsoft employee). Cut things short, he played the game ONLINE on the STOLEN version, and managed to get found out (duh). He was quickly banned (along with a few others as it would seem), but the length of the ban may mean that he has to pass over his XBOX360 to his next of kin till the year 9999....

    ...

    Well, I guess that guy can look at it this way: at least the ban isn't technically permanent.

    I'll ask this guy to give me his password and keep it on an internet site until someone finds it in the year 9999 and get's banned again.

    LMAO!


    If he cryogenically freezes both him and his Xbox 360 until that year he can then play it.


    Sucks to be him though. He had a pretty darn good gamerscore.

    LMAO but i wonder why would someone still use his Xbox 360 at 9999 if he somehow stays alive? XD

    There will probably be 7th Dimension consoles by then.

    Actually there won't be year 9999 since Armageddon will come.
    haha it seems he's totally *bleep*ed, well justice has been served. Of course i like Incidnia post i was thinking of saying this, however if he knows how to hack you can override this.

    EDIT:About my last statement. DOn't take it the wrong way i was just stating something, of course if he did you would be arrested.

    Don't worry kid. Eat your veggies, take your pills, and you'll one day be able to play on that 360 with live Goddamn...at least make it the year...2200 or something.

    Take some advice from Cartman in South Park and freeze yourself until it is the year 9999.

      Yeah, because then you might get yourself a Wii in the process.

        Does anyone want to explain was I was given two thumbs down ? When I mentioned the Wii, it was in reference to the South Park episode. Jesus Christ.

      Forget Cartmen, just ask Kenny, that kid never could be killed... I'm sure if the writers wanted, he could have stayed a live indefinitely

    Wow...that is such a looong ban (i wonder if it is really until the year 9999, or maybe longer). Serves him right for playing an illegal game ONLINE.

    LMAO

    You'd think the year 2500 or 3000 would be enough. But they had to go over nine thousand. Bastards.

    People should know better by now. You do not have privacy on Xbox Live, so stop doing illegal shit!

    Calm down Vito you might hurt yourself again. That's why we took away that 100$ of yours for the GiftGrep contest.

    ANybody think this is kinda scary? Before, you could be banned from playing a certain Game online.. but now they have the power to ban your whole account from playing online. Talk about feeling restricted and being watched. Sure, it's stupid he went online with it, so he has a certain fault in it, but still- the fact that microsoft would just pull the carpet under him with such disrespect.. not even a warning or a reasonable suspension..
