AWccording to the new article on Bungie, they're going to ban even softmods; but does this mean if they are on the E: drive (scanning again?)
Because I don't want to risk getting banned, and I thought it was safe to play on Live with the original MS dash running...-.-

If you have a softmod installed then you don`t have a original ms dash
because that`s the bit that is hacked,
I bet my softmodded xbox get`s on there with no problem`s as It never has the
softmod installed. all I have is a gamesave in my E:\Udata
( and 150 gb of music emulators and apps on my F:\ )
Can someone make this perfectly clear? Is it safe to go on when the softmod is "Disabled". I have restored the c: drive to its original state but the backups are still on the E: drive. Is this safe to go on to live with

found that i`d been banned last night.
So beware!
I wasn`t playing any games and didn`t have any softmod in place (just Had the exploit in my gamesaves)
all I have done in the last week is chat in the voice chat with some friends. ( no playing Gaylo 2, no cheating, no modded content )
So Mr gate`s If thats how you treat your customers, You don`t
deserve any.
The funny thing is though that I was just starting to warm to ms as well!
Anyway, i won`t be buying another xbox, nor will i be buying a 360
I will be selling all my xbox live games ( don`t need them anymore )
And will be modding peoples xbox`s for FREE from now on and filling them with every MS game on the market.
and lastly I`m now running linux on my pc.
Since I now don`t support the xbox in anyway other than to cost ms money, This will be my last post.

d00d, Blighty, NOOOOOOO! COme back!!!... *sigh* another one lost because of Bill's assholeness. Damn you BILL!!!!! Well, it's not totally bill... it's that one guy who wears hoodies with Sports jackets... Did ya'll see that at the unveiling of the 360 at M$'s last conference? Douche... Anyway, I'm sticking with the box because it's a damned powerful system. But I don't have live, so I'm not missin out... Bill's just money hungry. Like robin williams said "Congressman: Bill, do you realize that you're causing a monopoly? Bill: Monopoly's just a game, sir. I'm trying to take over the f-in world!" _________________ "That which does not kill you, only makes you stronger."
