Source here: http://360patches.com/forums/index.php?PHP...f81069a&page=86quote from xbx-scene: QUOTE You CAN have your console banned for having a 12v fan mod. A very trusted user of www.360patches.com got told directly from MS reps that his fan was modded on his 360 and that it violates the TOA. Any modification of hardware does indeed violate the TOA, so legally they reserve the right to ban users from live for that reason. Petty yes, but justified. A fan mod would be reasonably easy to detect, as voltage metering is something standard in all bios for the past 10 or so years. This post has been edited by Gurdian: Dec 22 2007, 10:49 AM |

I used to stuff for LYN Editorial and troll at LYN Forums
|
I guess modifications is still a modifications. They are trying to send a msg - "Don't repair it yourself or we banhammer you". Money-squeezing antiques but since we signed the TOA, yeah... gnome: I agree  |

Well I use extra cooling fan.
We are finding way to improve the cooling system to avoid 3rod and they are banning us? Screw them.
If I'm getting ban, bye bye Xbox. I'm going to PS3 and modding my Xbox 360 for good.

TOA TOA TOA screw the TOA. They did something wrong and couldn't fix it, we as the consumers try the fix it for them, the least they can do is close one eye.
