Ha, yeah.

This definitely won't end well. The last points problem was simply an error on Live Rewards' part. I don't know what this is. I would avoid.

A last ditch attempt by Microsoft to rekindle my love for the system and XBOX Live? If they ban me I'll just be done with XBOX.

I like how people are perfectly okay doing this simply because it works. It's like discovering a loophole in your taxes and being like "Hey, it works. Why not? I'll never get audited."

they'll trace this back and prolly ban your account. its easy to check the history and see multiple redemption of 400msp. so dont use your main account.

Which is why I'm not going to get greedy, I redeemed once and that's it.

Even if you redeemed it once, you're still exploiting the system. There's no trying to look at it as the lesser of evils.

They can still trace system IDs and IPs and ban your main account even if you use a different account.

People opting not to jump on this?

What happened to you, GAF? You used to be cool.


Honestly, what happened last time something like this was found? Did people really get banned?

I don't expect this to end well.

Its not like MS can't track these point redemptions to your gamertag.

I got 800 points. I'm not doing anymore. If Microsoft gets pissy about this maybe they'll show mercy on those who only did it once or twice.

no. If anything they'll just take the points back like that time it glitched and started sending people thousands of points by mistake.

Well surely the promotion is intended for you to redeem one 400 points offer
I wouldn't considering that an exploit

Well, they never canceled my three free years of Xbox Live.

That said, I haven't turned my Xbox 360 on in a year and a half so really I couldn't care if they ban my account over 1200 points.

It's a promotion by t-mobile, why is using it an "exploit"? I've gotten free MS points for other promotions and I don't consider them exploits. Only repeated using is exploiting IMO.

Yeah. I feel like I still was advertised to for the Windows phone/TMobile, even if it is in German. Using it more than once is an exploit, but using it once should be legit in my opinion.

Edit: Beaten. Oh well.
