Why people acting like all hope is lost in banned consoles? Maybe it's INSIDE the box, and have nothing to do with the server? Who knows?
Maybe after a while we can get around it with a patch or something? We don't know yet, so be hopeful for banned people. It's not true that all hope is lost for banned consoles.
I think some MS employess are posting posts which are aimed in killing hopes of people who have banned consoles, so they will buy new ones.
I think it's VERY possible.
