Re: Can you get banned by?
Maybe, I've had issue even with verb's reading weird, I bet a bad burner could cause CRC issue's not reported in a burning program then the game is played and cleary not legit.
Yes
Maybe. SSV1 from a xbox drive most likely not but kreon rips yes
I think the issue your describing is either when all steath files are there but it can't verify with the abgx server (not always bad) or it's the issue with newer waves I think 5+ are not reading right in abgx.
Truth is no one knows except the xbox live qa team at MS and there not talking. One thing noticed over the years of banning is it 's happens around oct, nov. and all preventive measures were in vain, with a few people some how making it though, they most likely didn't play on live often or during the ban season.
Bottom line don't mod your xbox if you don't want it to get banned. But if you going to do it anyway and want to try not to get banned use LT with your own SSV2 rip's.
