Banning Updates?

[frodeaux]

So what is up lately with the ban wave? Is it over? Has anyone figured out why so many consoles were banned, any similarities between them all? Is it safe to flash drives again ( and by safe, I mean in the context of ban-wave being over, and also the chance that we can always be banned at any time),.

well im still flashing drives
but
the people understand it is not live safe till i tell them.
there is some firmware being tested on live
but
it will be some time before i give it the as good as it can be for live.

one thing that cant be said enough is that
the new firmware is not going to check for stealt on the game
so if you play a non-stealth game
you can bet you will be banned right away.

the end user HAS to make sure there games are stealth

Thanks for the update cofree, Anyone figure out a commonality between all the bannings? Or they keeping tight lipped for now about what the main cause may have been?

Microsoft was detecting the Stealth in the firmware, the future firmwares are going to be non stealth.
