Microsoft Disconnects Modded Xbox Users
S-4'N3 writes "The BBC reports that Microsoft has disconnected approximately 600,000 Xbox users from Xbox Live because the devices they are using have been modified, either with software or with new chips, to play pirated games. 'Microsoft confirmed that it had banned a "small percentage" of the 20 million Xbox Live users worldwide.
Microsoft said that modifying an Xbox 360 console 'violates' the service's 'terms of use' and would result in a player being disconnected.'"
This should mean I'll never lose to some 12 year old in Halo or CoD again, cause I'm sure they were all modding. Yep, that's definitely it.
does this make it an "Ex-Box"?
thank you thank you... i'm here all week.
i wage a holy war against the apostrophe.
That phrase doesn't make grammatical sense in reply to any single sentence in that post. What doesn't what do?
Hitler is going to be pissed!
PISSED!
120 characters isn't enough to explain it.
The great thing about online console play (the only thing, really, that it has over PCs) is their closed nature.
The correct anti-response would be: no it isn't.
It's much, much harder to cheat on a console than on a PC game.
The correct anti-response would be: no it isn't.
Don't get me wrong.
The correct anti-response would be: ...No I will?
I fully support their right to mod their own hardware.
The correct anti-response would be: ....No you don't?
But I don't want to play them online.
The correct anti-response would be: I do
learn to read, faggot.
Looks like someone had their XBox360 disconnected from LIVE. /smirk

You have given yourself away, Microsoft Fanboi!
Your brain is not a computer.
If you read the thread I was asking what the "it" is and what it "doesn't do" so that I could communicate with him. He then told me I was an illiterate faggot so if I wanted to reply to his line of discourse I could either talk about my sexuality and relevant exploits or I could discuss why I couldn't understand what he wrote. Which would you have preferred? Well too bad, that was rhetorical!
If you have any idea exactly which point he was arguing with I'd be happy to have non grammatical-focused discourse on the subject
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
