Are you cheating in any of Blizzard’s games? If so, you better watch out as it has come to light that Blizzard is banning a whole slew of users. In fact, it was recently announced that Blizzard will be banning a whole 320,000 Warcraft III and Diablo II players.

If you’re a legimate player, you have nothing to worry about. All of these bannings will be dished out only to those who have been confirmed to be cheaters. Remember folks, cheaters never prosper.

Have you or someone you know gotten banned from Xbox Live until the year 9999? Do you know why? One parent who’s kid got banned until said year didn’t know why and took it to the official Xbox forums.

The thread went like this:

Parent: Hi, Posted earlier about my son’s suspension and no help. Then i realised did not put his gamertag on the message. i am BlaaaacK v is his gamertag. Would be helpful is someone could enlighten me as to why he was suspended until 31/12/9999 without notification.

Microsoft: Your son was exposing himself on camera in Uno.

So folks, showing your junk on camera certainly isn’t going to help your rank. Hell, it’ll get you banned until the end of time. I only wish I knew how the conversation between this parent and their kid went down after reading this message.

Microsoft has announced today that they are setting their sights on Xbox Live members with a modded Xbox 360. And by setting their sights on, I mean they are issuing a massive banning.

A Microsoft spokesperson said the following to IGN:

“We have taken action against a small percentage of consoles that have been modified to play pirated game discs. In line with our commitment to combat piracy and support safer and more secure gameplay for the more than 20 million members of our Xbox LIVE community, we are suspending these modded consoles from Xbox LIVE.”

So, any of you readers with a modded Xbox 360 notice that you can’t log onto Xbox Live anymore?
