Nothing on this is true NOTHING

Let Me Introduce The 3 Strikes Your Out System
1st Strike - You Get A Warning
2nd Strike - You Get Suspended
3rd Strike - Your Console or Profile Banned

Console ban 3 strike System

Account #1 Issued 12-31-9999 ban[Modding/infection](Strike 1)
Account #2 Issued 12-31-9999 ban[Modding/infection](Strike 2)

What You Get Console Banned For

Threatning Wrong you will get issued a XBL communication suspension
Infections / Mods Wrong you will get a 12-31-9999 Account ban
Recovering / Making Too Many Accounts Highly Wrong,No action will be taken
Destroying Property Makes No sense, No action will be taken if this is possible

What You Get Profile Banned For (12/31/9999)

Simple Profile Mods Agree
Language/How You Talk To People Wrong you will get issued a XBL communication suspension
Anything Bad In Your Profile Wrong you will get issued a Suspension
Marketplace Theft Wrong you will get issued a Console Ban/Depending on how much you stole




Regarding Ban Waves

Dustin Xbox Support Agent wrote:
Dustin: That's an interesting stat. About the wave of bans, I think that bans do happen in waves sometimes. We'll notice that all of the sudden every other chat is about a console being banned, so it seems like they do a sweep of console bans every few months.



Console Bans are NOT being issued unless you have banned warned 2 other times (which is 2 12-31-9999 bans)Then you will be issued a Console ban on your 3rd account ban

Please refrain from making multiple posts regarding the same inquiry. The Enforcement Team responds to each and every post, but it is not instantaneous.

Keep your e-mail up-to-date! When an enforcement action is taken, information is immediately sent to the Windows Live ID e-mail associated with your Gamertag. Similarly, many forum inquiries are responded to via e-mail rather than public post. This may be done for a number of reasons, including but not limited to the nature of the enforcement, respect for the user's privacy and protection of personal data, and to mitigate possible harassment. If you no longer have access to the email account associated with your Windows Live ID, you may not receive our replies and other correspondence from Microsoft.

Avoid getting banned


Click to Hide Content
First thing is first - If you like to report member's on xbox to be rude or to get back at someone read this before you do it.

Before you report them for any reason you must known that when you report someone they always do a back round check on you, which means if you broke any rules they will issue you a suspension or ban depending on what you did.

Ex:

I got into a 10th lobby a month ago, I then filed a complaint on another user for cheating. The XBLPET will look at my history on the account I reported that user on and they will see I got into a 10th lobby, they will ban me. Then they will handle the member I reported.


Bans/Suspensions/Force Change


Click to Hide Content
Profile violation usually work this way: 1 strike= 24hr, 2nd strike= 1 week 3rd strike= 2weeks...

Any kind of modding,10th lobbies,modded avatar,modded years playied ect will result an a 12-31-9999 ban a.k.a Perm-a-banned.

Communication Violation - First 24hour Second 48hour Third 1 Week etc.

Sending any kind of message saying anything about lobbies or modding related, etc you will get a perm banned.

Talking about DDOS,threating etc will result in a 24 hour suspension then 1 week etc.

Filing a Complaint on a gamertag doesn't work anymore. It will get ban/force changed if it is an inappropriate username.

Will updated when I get more info.


Items on a Banned Account(12-31-9999)


Click to Hide Content
Weve designed the Xbox LIVE service to help create a place where our members can interact and have fun online. To help protect that experience for our customers, the Xbox LIVE Enforcement team monitors the service for behavior that violates the Xbox LIVE Terms of Use and Code of Conduct. Violations of the Xbox LIVE Terms of Use and the Code of Conduct can result in a variety of actions, up to and including a permanent suspension of a console from connecting to Xbox LIVE. Everything on the banned account will be forfeited.



Trying to override 12-31-9999 Bans


Click to Hide Content
You can NOT File complaint on a banned gamertag(12-31-9999) It will not work for this reason.

Ex. Say you got banned for swearing. Now your banned for 48 hours(2days) and that same day you got banned for motto abuse which is 24 hours(1day). In 24 hours you will be unbanned from Xbox Live and now can go online and play, but you're still banned from talking to people for another day because 48-24=24. Its the same way with 12-31-9999 That is counting down so a 24 hour ban for a motto abuse will last one day so now you have one less day from the 12-31-9999 ban.

XBLPET Juliet wrote:
Also, we would like to note that you attempted to unban yourself by using an exploit on the website and had friends file a complaint in order to get you temporarily suspended. Getting a temporary suspension is not a means of undoing a permanent one. This is a myth.

FAQ(s)about Console Ban(s)


Click to View Content
I have seen many question rising up about consoles bans and what not. I will answer some now.

Q. If I get console banned,can I buy a new xbox without getting banned?
A. Yes,they banned your other console for breaking a Terms of Use violation, but you can buy another one. However, if you break the Terms of Use again, they will console ban you again.

Q. If I buy a new console, can I use my hard drive from my banned xbox?
A. Yes, they only ban the xbox, also if you did something with the account they ban that to.

Q. What should I do with my banned xbox?
A. I would sell it on Ebay,or try selling it to a trusted seller for cheap, they can use that and RGH it.

Q. Can I get IP banned from xbox?
A. Yes, but it is very rare for that to happen. I have had over 50 consoles bans(including Kv's) and never been IP banned.


How to Unban Account/Console


Click to Hide Content
Right now their is currently no way of unbanning a account unless, you convince XBLPET to unban it or your a member of XBLPET. You also agreed to the Terms of Use, and you deserve the ban.

The only way you can unban a console right now is if it is RGH'ed/Jtag'ed/XDK or unless you convince XBLPET to unban it, or your a member of XBLPET. You also agreed to the Terms of Use, and you deserve the ban.

Xbox Disc Tray/Drive error(s)/How to Fix


Click to Hide Content
E45: This is considered to be a dashboard error of some sort. Unknown fix.
E64: DVD Drive error potentially caused by internal wiring.
E65: DVD Drive error likely caused when the tray isn't fully closed or working properly.
E66: DVD Drive error firmware related. Likely the model of the installed DVD Drive doesn't match the what is expected by the software. Often a problem with modding the Xbox 360, make sure to have the same kind of DVD player that was originally included with your console.

Click to Hide Content
Xbox live Codes are sold region wide. They allow you to purchase/play on Xbox live. There are two Kind of Codes that you need to play/buy things.

Microsoft Points These allow you to buy things for games you can also you them to buy movies,games pretty much %99 of stuff on Xbox live.

Xbox Live Membership You must have one in order to go on Xbox live and play with user's around the world. Ex: 1-year,3 month,1 Month,48 hour.

Xbox Live Memberships/Microsoft points These can be purchased anywhere around you. They will only work for you country, say if you buy them in the U.S. they will only work in the U.S.

Different pricing

Microsoft Points They're all different world wide their are different amounts you can buy and this is because of how your country's money system is.

Xbox Live Memberships They're the same price world wide. They all have the same thing on them (1-year,3 month,1 Month,48 hour)

48 hour(s) These Codes are the only codes you can use world wide. You can find them in Emails,new game cases or when Microsoft does a promotion.

Facebook free 48hour(s) thetechgame.com/Forums/t=3199214.html

Entering Codes on any account Call xbox and tell them you got it as a gift from a friend in that country where you have the code from, they should enter it for you. Also ask them if they can transfer it to your country's value.

What is a OG/Semi-OG

::Original Gamertags::

The definition of an original xbox gamertag vary from person to person. I will do my best to describe my best of different types of original gamertags.

My Definition of an original gamertag: A Gamertag

that contains No Prefixes (ie: Ultra, Un, Semi, Hyper) before the tag you are referencing. An example of a prefix gamertag would be: Ultra-rare.

that contains No Suffixes (ie: Fly, Able, Ible, Ce, Al) after the tag you are referencing. An example of a suffix gamertag would be: Simplify, Portable, Logical.

that is not a Plural (This pretty much explains itself) after the tag you are referencing. An example of a plural gamertag would be: Simples, Magicals, Enchantments, Killers. This type of gamertag is the most common type of gamertag that claims to be "original".

that does not contain: numbers, L's to swap for i's or vise-versa. The gamertag should also not have a combination letters to create one letter. (ie: I R to create R or I 3 to Create B)

that is a single letter. Not two letters, but 1.

A word that is in the dictionary..

An original gamertag SHOULD CONTAIN at the maximum ONE WORD. A BASE WORD. An example of an original gamertag would be: Fear, Kill, Terror, Stop, Time.

::Semi-Original Gamertags::

The definition of a semi-original gamertag also varies from person to person. On the forums I see many people arguing wether their gamertag is semi-original or original. I will try to do my best to explain Semi-Original as I believe that these are the most mis-understood gamertags.

A Semi-Original Gamertag:

Contains a prefix (ie: Ultra, Un, Semi, Hyper) before the tag you are referencing. An example of a prefix gamertag would be: Semi-Original.

May be a plural word. After the tag you are referencing usually an S follows it. An example of a plural gamertag would be: Simples, Magicals, Enchantments, Killers. This type of gamertag is the most common type of gamertag that claims to be "original". THESE ARE NOT ORIGINAL.

May contain two or more words. An example of a semi-original gamertag with 2 words would be: Free Fall, Stone Age, Bear Cub.

::Rare Gamertags::

Rare gamertags are rarely disputed. It is easy to see that Mickey Mouse, Walt Disney, Star Struck, are Rare Gamertags. These gamertags mostly were created on the original xbox. However since xbox has allowed spaces in previous xbox original gamertags, new ones are becoming available. To clear things up i will give you many examples of my "rare" gamertags.

A Rare Gamertag:

Should be a common/popular household names. (ie: Pokemon Movie, High School, Pop Tarts, Jessica Alba, Megan Fox, and Michael Jackson)

Should be a common item not including food that is found in most societies. (ie: Tooth Brush, Dish Soap, Skateboard, Toilet Cleaner, Lava Lamp, Block Buster, Ocarina of Time, Fire Emblem.)

JTAG(S)/RGH Console(s)/Where to buy


Click to Hide Content
JTAG
What the online gaming community has come to know as a "JTAG" is an Xbox that utilizes the SMC exploit. This exploit causes a re-boot into the 4532 kernel. This kernel was made famous by the KK exploit (King Kong), where a bug in the hypervisor was utilized to run unsigned code. The SMC exploit is a faster version of the KK exploit (as in, it boots faster), and allows for the running of unsigned code. The SMC exploit is limited to consoles running kernels prior to the summer 09 update (7371). It is also true that there are several patched CBs, which prevent the exploit. Due to the need for a console which has not been updated, they are naturally scarce and once demanded a high price. Credits go to robinsod, tmbinc, SeventhSon, Martin_sw, and Tiros.

RGH
The Reset Glitch Hack is a new type of method which allows the running of unsigned code. Explained by free60: "We found that by sending a tiny reset pulse to the processor while it is slowed down does not reset it but instead changes the way the code runs, it seems it's very efficient at making bootloaders memcmp functions always return "no differences". memcmp is often used to check the next bootloader SHA hash against a stored one, allowing it to run if they are the same. So we can put a bootloader that would fail hash check in NAND, glitch the previous one and that bootloader will run, allowing almost any code to run." This hack requires a "glitch chip", which will send the signal. These range from the original Coolrunner-II made by Digilent, the Matrix by Infinity Mod, Team-Xecuter Coolrunner, X360Glitch Chip by SoulHaven, and the Stinger by Maximus. These chips have an Xilink chip which is capable of sending the signal fast enough for the glitch to properly function. The benefits of the RGH is that it doesn't require a non-updated dashboard to run unsigned code, meaning you could run 2 or more NANDs, which allows you to run it as a retail with one, and run unsigned code with the other. It is also able to work on the Trinity motherboard (original slim motherboard), which the SMC exploit is not. Since this hack runs on almost any Xbox (some have CB_Bs, which don't allow the hack to run, and others have unglitchable CBs: 5772 and 6752; for now), which means that the only limiting factor is the number of Xboxs produced by Microsoft. Credits go to GliGli, Tiros, cOz, Razkar, tuxuser, and Ced2911 Ultimately, since they have the same outcome, they are theoretically the same value. However, I value the Reset Glitch higher than the SMC exploit, because of the ability to still run a retail dash on Xbox Live, without consequently causing the glitch to fail.
