Ok the title says it all. My question though.... I havent played any "backed up" games since the last banning wave, i have only been using original disks... and the disks have the scratches to prove it. =( So how did they detect my firmware? i have 1.6 and thats the only thing that has changed. Like I said though, I havent used anything but originals in it... but i have been using the usb port to charge my iphone alot lately. could that have been the problem?

Also, if i get another console and use the hdd from the modded one will the other console get banned?

It seems like MS can detect firmware that isn't stock now, so just going online with modded firmware could get you banned.

As for getting a new console and using your hard drive, it will be fine, nothing will happen to the new console.

Sucks to hear it guys.. Sad

Heaps of people i know have been hit with the ban hammer too and they have only been playing original games or not at all over the past 8 months or so..

I guess microsoft just need to boost their hardware sales for xmas.. lol
It's a great idea to have ban waves.. They can boost sales at any click of the button. hehhe

The worst thing about this ban hammer is all those legit players who,ve not been playing back ups or anything, you,ve not got a leg to stand on, microsoft will not admit there mistakes, IT SUCKS.
