I want to start a thread with only this information below:

ALSO: No talking about release groups or image release names!

Keep it simple to the point and we may figure this out: See my other thread regarding my theory.
No theories here, just simple answers only. Important info is for something that I may have left out that you think is important to know.

If this gets out of hand the moderators will close this thread. I also think M$ will send employees on here to make this turn stupid or put irrelevant information on here so we will see if this works:
Both of my 360 Elites are as follows:

Type of Firmware: Ixtreme v1.4
Type of DVD Drive: Hitachi
Banned yes or no: No
Date of Ban: N/A
When were you banned if so: N/A
Were you playing a backup online and get signed out of live yes or no: N/A
Xbox 360 hard drive yes or no: Yes on both systems
Play on live with backups yes or no: No
Play backups or early games offline with non xbox live profile: Yes
Deleted all information regarding offline profiles prior to connecting after ban yes or no: Yes
Does your gamertag have any games listed that were early releases in it yes or no: No
Any important information you want to state about bans: None

Remember keep it simple.

Any important information you want to state about bans: I modded my xbox out of the box because I was banned once before and my friend who plays the same games as me who's xbox i've flashed got banned. So there might be something to do with playing on live before being modded that might have something to do with the bannings. If I get banned this theory is shot tho.
