Rumor: Xbox Live Policy Enforcer Hacked By Banned Player

[duchaked]

gooood grief 35 times??

1. his parents should stop buying him more consoles
2. his parents should lock the basement door where he stays
3. his parents should cut off the Internet to the basement
4. his parents should stop feeding him

oh and it's not child abuse if he's 35 years old

but in all seriousness, maybe he just steals all those consoles. won't make many permanent friends but social engineering might help with the temporary lol

"All members of XBL who were account banned/console banned have been avenged"- Predator.

The amount pretentiousness someone has to have to make that statement is staggering. No one has been "avenged", he just hacked that account for his own pathetic self-satisfaction.

35 bans? What? Is this guy a fuckin' loonatic?

On re to the stream of videos posted up where a kid gets banned for shouting profanity and modding.

While I whole heartedly agree the kid deserved his ban, and that The Pro was within his rights as a moderator operating within the terms of service.

In my opinion, the pro also didn't act very professional. He became confrontational, and engaged in a back and forth with the kid, upping the threats and bouncing off the kid over and over. Thats not how a professionally paid mod should act.

You step back, assess the rules that have been broken, take decisive action to enforce the rules as they are set. If the rules say a warning should be issued, you issued a warning in a neutral tone of voice stating the results of the continued rule breaking, and restating the rules.

You don't basically swing your big mod weight and start snarking back at the kid.

He can afford to buy 34 new consoles because he makes a VERY good living stealing gamertags and selling them. Look for his YouTube video where he hacks trixie360 and offers to steal any gamertag for 100 bucks.

In the video, Predator says that he was getting revenge for not 1, not 2, but 35 Xbox Live bans at the console level.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't you have to buy 35 consoles for this to happen? Or is there a hack you can use to fool XBL to thinking you're on a different console?

I don't know; it just seems like you could do something better with that money instead of being a relentless griefer. You know... like throw it in a furnace and use it to heat your house.

 

[DragonBorn96]

This would be funnier if Predator thought he could hold the site. Anyway, 35?!. Someone doesn't know how to take a hint although his persistence is something else, its like "Hmm, banned 35 times?. I know! Lets attack the people who ban me!" Smart move.

Nice staff, Microsoft.

So heavily edited I can't waste time believing it's legit. The guys in a service and enforcement environment probably wouldn't have the time to pick random folks and make them miserable. Somebody had to do something to attract the attention of Microsoft staff.

Very true.

That's easy to do the first time, and the tenth time even. By about the 100th time, it starts getting difficult. When you're crowding the 1000 mark, it's very, very hard to not flip your lid.

(Been there. Came perilously close to doing that. Didn't want the t-shirt, so I took a loooong break.)

Nice staff, Microsoft.

This was debunked. Lupo cut out a bunch of dialogue of him provoking The Pro and use of hacks. He well deserved the ban.

 

[CatinHat]

Can't wait to read it on the escapist that he is getting own by the courts, only for him to cry like a little baby on the ground.

 

[Radelaide]

Console ban is the one where they disable the connection chip, yes? If this guy has been banned 35 times, how much disposable fucking income does he have?

 

[Starke]

Nice staff, Microsoft.

Wow, what a massive asshole. Granted, a lot of context was stripped from that video (we didn't see most of what happened immediately before the ban, I mean), but I don't know what context there could be that would make it so he DIDN'T abuse his power. Looked like he banned him just for saying that he would make that video.

How about this context?

Granted, the quality is so bad that you can't see which player is actually saying that, but whoever it was surely earned a temporary ban. Game mods plus talking about having sex with someone's grandma? If I was a mod in that match, I would have banned whichever player was saying that stuff too.

Actually, thanks for reposting that. Back when the news story originally broke, someone filed a DMCA notice on the context video. It obviously got sorted, but I never remembered to go back and double check it.

Been there done that myself.

I also have to do it face to face when refereeing at karate tournaments, and when teaching karate.

it's hard not to blow your top the 3,000,000 th time a student does something stupid, talks over the top of you, and endangers their fellow students, but my class would be empty if I reacted like that.

 

[Niccolo]

How on earth do you get Banned 35 times?!

On your way to a Darwin award, methinks.

 

[tkioz]

35 banned xboxes? sounds like mummy needs to take back the credit card.

 

[king_katchit]

What a moron.

I'll never understand these hackers and the stupid self-righteousness. I suppose Microsoft is happy to keep taking his money.

At current value an Xbox is around £190 in the UK, with XBL coming in around £35 a pop.
So for all you maths fans, that equates to an eye watering £6650 spent on consoles and a further £1225 on XBL.

The mind boggles.
