That's what I get for being uninformed.. One of my brand new arcade consoles just got banned with ix 1.6 but I've been away from the forums for so long that I haven't kept up with all the latest ban hammer info. Ohh well, life goes on but it still sucks that I can't get online with Modern Warfare 2 or any other games right now.. I still have another box that's flashed with 1.51 that I'm going to flash back to stock so I can play on Xbox Live, I don't want both of my consoles to get banned then I have nothing to take online.. _________________________________________________________ Xbox V1.3

hope that works for you. We are still not 100% sure in what all they are looking at or can look at to ban. Maybe even if you flash your system back the the origional FW you could get banned. If they can detect or have detected you have moded. Hopefully you will be good. I cringe each time I hear one of our members gets banned. I was looking forward to moding my system but not going to risk my online console, Maybe wait to pick up a used one then if it gets banned thats cool, can always use offline. But still need the online system for games such as MW2, Bad company2 etc.

That's what I'm afraid of gamexxover, if I flash the console back to stock they can detect a firmware change and I'm still F***** in the game.. _________________________________________________________ Xbox V1.3

Your right hobbs, I have to play smart and not mod every console like always tend to do. Luckily for me I had a replacement plan with Gamestop so I was able to swap my banned 360 for a new one with a MFR date of 10/09... _________________________________________________________ Xbox V1.3
